Jayam Ravi's wife says she found out about the divorce through actor's announcement.
Jayam Ravi recently announced separation from his wife Aarti Ravi after 15 years of marriage due to "personal reasons". However, now, the actor's wife has claimed she was blindsided by his statement.
On Wednesday, Aarti Ravi took to her Instagram and shared a statement two days after her estranged husband Jayam Ravi announced his impending divorce from her. She stated that she was ‘shocked and saddened’ by how Ravi handled the whole issue and claimed the announcement was made without her consent.
In her statement, Aarti wrote, "After 18 years of shared history, I believe that such a significant matter should be handled with the grace, respect, and privacy that it deserves. For some time, I have sought several opportunities to speak directly with my husband, hoping to have an open dialogue in a manner that honours the commitment we made to one another and to our family. Sadly, that opportunity was not afforded to me, leaving both my children and me completely blindsided by this announcement. The decision to walk out of our marriage is purely one-sided and does not benefit our family."
She further added why she decided to speak on the matter two days after Jayam Ravi made the announcement and said, "Despite the pain this has caused, I have chosen to remain dignified and refrained from public comment until now. It has been hard to endure the false public narrative that has unfairly placed blame on me and subjected my character to attacks. As a mother, my first priority is and always will be the well-being of my children. I cannot stand by while this narrative affects them, and I will not allow these unfounded allegations to go unaddressed. My focus remains on the well-being of our children and helping them navigate this difficult time with the strength and integrity they deserve. I trust that in time, the full context of our situation will be understood."
She further thanked the media and fans for their support and said, "I appreciate your continued prayers and respect for our privacy during this challenging chapter of our lives."
