When a marriage ends in private, it is tragedy.
When it ends under the glare of social media, it becomes spectacle.
Over the last few days, Pakistani cricketer Imad Wasim has found himself trending — not for cricket, but for his personal life. Screenshots, captions, and half-timelines have been stitched together into a viral narrative of betrayal. But when stripped of emotion and examined with evidence, the story looks very different from the one circulating online.
This article does not defend or vilify.
It does what social media refuses to do: separate fact from assumption.
What Is Confirmed (Facts, Not Feelings)
Imad Wasim has publicly confirmed that he filed for divorce from his wife Sannia Ashfaq after six years of marriage.
In his statement, he made four things explicit:
-
The divorce is due to long-standing, unresolved personal differences
-
He denied allegations of infidelity
-
He reaffirmed full responsibility for their three children
-
He requested privacy and warned against defamatory narratives
These points are not inferred. They are directly stated.
The couple shares three young children — born in 2021, 2022, and July 2025. Any discussion that ignores this reality is already detached from responsibility.
