In an Instagram post, he stated, “The reports regarding my divorce are accurate.” Furthermore, he kindly asked the media to honor their need for privacy.
The wedding ceremony of the couple took place on August 22, spanning across two locations in London and Pakistan. This decision was influenced by the presence of PML-N leader Nawaz Sharif, who is currently residing in self-exile in the British capital.

Ayesha Saif Khan is the daughter of Saifur Rehman, former chairman of the Ehtesaab Bureau during former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif’s second tenure.
The nikkah ceremony took place in the Lanesborough, an extravagant hotel on the Hyde Park Corner in Knightsbridge. The event was attended by Safdar’s grandfather, his uncle Hussain Nawaz, party member and former finance minister Ishaq Dar, and others.
The groom’s parents, Maryam Nawaz and Muhammad Safdar were unable to attend the wedding ceremony owing to their names currently on the Exit Control List. Maryam Nawaz had announced her future absence through a tweet earlier this month.
However, they were present during the ceremony via video call with their son. Maryam Nawaz also posted pictures of the ceremony on her Twitter and blessed the couple.
