Aarti Ravi alleges divorce announcement with Jayam Ravi made without her consent
Actor Jayam Ravi, who was married to Aarti Ravi for 18 years, recently announced publicly that he has separated from his wife, and chose to go ahead with divorce. However, a few days later, on Wednesday, Aarti put out an official statement that she is shocked to learn that the divorce statement has been made public without her knowledge and consent.
“I was deeply shocked and saddened by the recent public announcement regarding our marriage, which was made without my knowledge or consent. 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,” her statement read.
It also said that Aarti sought several opportunities to speak directly with her husband, in order to have an “open dialogue” to honour “the commitment” they made. However, the statement said that chance was not offered and she along with her two children were left “completely blindsided by this announcement”. It added, “The decision to walk out of our marriage is purely one sided and does not benefit our family.”
What did Aarti Ravi say
Aarti Ravi has chosen to remain “dignified and refrained from public comment”. She also said that her first priority is her children. She shares two sons with Jayam Ravi. The actor is yet to comment on the issue.
Aarti, in her statement, further said that it has been hard to bear the brunt of the false public narrative that has “unfairly placed blame” on her and resulting in character attacks.
“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,” it added.
