Aishwarya Rai celebrates Aaradhya’s 13th birthday, Abhishek Bachchan skips the party
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan recently shared heartfelt pictures from her daughter Aaradhya’s 13th birthday celebration and her father Krishnaraj Rai’s birth anniversary.
On Instagram, she posted moments that highlighted both her personal milestones: one picture showed Aaradhya bowing before a portrait of her late grandfather, while another captured Aishwarya and Aaradhya with Aishwarya’s mother, Brindya Rai. A throwback image of Aishwarya holding baby Aaradhya added a sentimental touch.
Her caption expressed love for both her father and daughter, saying, “Happy birthday to the eternal love of my life.”
However, fans quickly noticed the absence of Aishwarya’s husband, Abhishek Bachchan, in the pictures, which sparked speculation about their relationship.
Rumors of a potential separation between the couple had been circulating for some time, especially after the pair arrived separately at a high-profile wedding in July. The rumors intensified when Abhishek liked an Instagram post discussing “grey divorces,” or divorces occurring later in life, which led to further speculation.
The post, which Abhishek liked, questioned why love sometimes becomes difficult and discussed the rise of separations among long-married couples, particularly those over 50. The post resonated with discussions around “grey divorces,” a global trend, which further fueled public interest in the Bachchans’ relationship status.
Abhishek and Aishwarya, married in April 2007, have not publicly addressed these rumors. They welcomed Aaradhya in 2011, and despite the ongoing speculation, the couple has not confirmed or denied any separation.
