'My husband works with Donald Trump’s company', Rakhi Sawant confirms wedding, reveals her WhatsApp love story and more

During an interaction with Spotboye, Rakhi Sawant confirmed that she has indeed tied the knot. She stated, "To begin with, it is right what you guys had reported that my husband is an NRI. Well, his name is Ritesh and he is in the UK. In fact, he has already left. My visa is underway and I will join him. Of course, I shall continue to work whatever I get in India, so will shuttle for that. I always wanted to produce TV shows and I think my long-standing dream will now be fulfilled."

While she told timesofindia.com, "Yes, I got married on July 20. Actually, main darr gayi thi. I wanted to have a quiet, hidden wedding."

Rakhi revealed it was a private affair and went on to say, "Ritesh and I got married at JW Marriott in Mumbai. He is a Hindu NRI and I am a Christian, so I did a court marriage and had a Catholic wedding. The wedding was intimate with just family members."

When asked if she will be moving to the UK, Rakhi said, "Not now. He wants me to continue to work in the industry. He said, ‘Why don’t you make films? I said ok’. My husband works with Donald Trump’s company as an employee."

Rakhi revealed that her husband dislikes media thus she hasn't shared his photos yet. She further said, "Good news toh hai, but mere husband ko media etc pasand nahi. Unko kisi ke saamne aana nahi thha. Shaadi toh family ke beech mein hoti hai, duniya ko thhodi na bulana hota hai!"

She added, "Ritesh is a very private person and does not prefer talking to the media or being seen about much. He is a businessman and a wonderful, sorted man."

When asked about how she met Ritesh, Rakhi stated, "It's a fab story. He was my fan. He WhatsApp me. Messaging and then talking to him, we became friends with the passage of time. This happened about a year-and-half back. Then, in fact, he proposed if I would like to marry one of his friends. I turned it down politely."

She added, "Dil mein ghanti nahin baji, I told him. He promptly asked, 'Mere liye dil mein ghanti bajti hai kya?' I said I need time to think. As more time rolled by, I realised I was falling in love with Ritesh. And, it was happening so very naturally. Trust me, I met him for the first time only 15 days before our wedding. He came down and I was sure that I had met the right guy."

Rakhi went on to say, "He’s a fan of mine. We started chatting on WhatApp, he proposed to me on WhatsApp and you can say that ‘It’s a WhatsApp love affair and marriage'. Ritesh has such good parents and sisters. Mera pati mere liye parmeshwar hai."
