Kiran Khan, known for hosting morning and cookery shows, has announced her marriage to Ishtiaq Baig, marking a new chapter in her personal life.
According to a report published by Reviewit on Sept. 17, Khan announced her marriage via a social media post, revealing that she also performed her first Umrah and tied the knot in the holy city of Makkah.
The actress and host has previously been married and has a son who is now an adult. Her announcement was accompanied by photographs from her Nikah ceremony with Baig.
Baig is known to Pakistani audiences for his previous marriage to the late singer Nazia Hassan. Their marriage ended in divorce, although accounts surrounding their relationship and separation have differed over the years.
The latest marriage has attracted attention online largely because of Baig’s connection with Hassan. Social media users quickly recognized him and discussed his previous marriage, while several Pakistani entertainment personalities, including Nida Yasir, Fahima Awan and Azfar Rehman, congratulated Khan on her new beginning.
Some online comments also revisited allegations previously made by Hassan’s family regarding her marriage to Baig. Those claims should be understood as allegations attributed to family members rather than established facts.
The marriage has therefore generated interest on two levels: Khan’s announcement of a significant new chapter in her life and Baig’s longstanding association with one of Pakistan’s most influential pop singers.
For Khan, the announcement also carries a personal and religious dimension, as she linked her marriage with her first Umrah in Makkah.
