Actor Shubhangi Atre has revealed the reason for her divorce from her ex-husband, the late Piyush Poorey. In an interview with Times of India, she disclosed that his alcohol addiction was the cause of their separation. Shubhangi and Piyush officially divorced in February this year. He recently passed away after struggling with liver cirrhosis.

Why Shubhangi chose to divorce Piyush Poorey

Shubhangi mentioned that she had a conversation with Piyush on April 16 and prayed for his recovery. She also expressed that she currently feels "emotional and numb. " She stated, "It's easy for people to judge without knowing the full story. They think I left him because of my success, but that's not accurate. Our separation stemmed from years of struggle. I didn't walk away due to my achievements; I left because his alcohol dependency affected our lives. I did everything I could to salvage my marriage, but it was out of my hands. Even sending him to rehab was ineffective. Our families also did their utmost to assist him, but addiction ruined him and impacted all of us. "

Shubhangi divorced Piyush considering Ashi

Regarding their daughter Ashi, she expressed, "I needed to prioritize my daughter Ashi's well-being, so I made the tough choice to separate. It wasn't a decision made on a whim. Issues began around 2018-2019, which ultimately resulted in the divorce in 2025. Even after our divorce, I stayed in contact with Piyush and urged him to seek assistance. I also maintain a very cordial relationship with his family. . . I believe my daughter has endured more than I have. "

Shubhangi will visit Piyush's family soon

Shubhangi stated that she plans to meet Piyush's family in Indore shortly. Ashi, who is currently studying in the US, will finish her final exams and return to India. The mother and daughter will then travel to Indore together. The couple married in Indore in 2003. Shubhangi and Piyush welcomed their daughter two years later in 2005.

Last year, prior to their divorce, a source informed Hindustan Times, "There was a period when the couple attempted to work on their relationship and give their marriage another chance. However, that didn’t pan out. They have come to terms with the reality that they can’t live together, but they are not ready to proceed with the divorce process. "
