Samiya Khan, wife of Pakistani cricketer Hasan Ali, has pushed back against speculation about trouble in her marriage.

She shared an Instagram story showing her having dinner with Hasan, with both appearing to be in good spirits.

Addressing the rumours, she wrote, “Shut up and get ur views from somewhere else.”

The speculation began after Samiya shared a story criticising women who get involved with married men, without naming anyone specifically.

She wrote, “Shadi Shuda bacho ke baap se jo ladkia paiso ke liye relationship banati hai ye soch kar ki ek din Shayad ye admi unse shadi kar lega lanat hai aisi ladkio par [Shame on girls who form relationships with married fathers for money, thinking that one day this man might marry them].”

The situation escalated when Samiya deleted all posts from her Instagram account and unfollowed Hasan Ali, only to follow him again shortly after.

The changes to her account sparked widespread discussion on social media, with users speculating about possible issues in the couple’s marriage. Neither Samiya nor Hasan gave a specific reason for the social media activity at the time.

Hasan Ali and Samiya, an Indian-origin flight engineer, married in Dubai in August 2019 and have three children together, daughters Helena and Hazel and son Hamdan.
