Shoaib Malik emphasizes bond with son Izhaan post-divorce

Shoaib Malik and Sania Mirza divorced in January 2024 after 14 years of marriage. They co-parent their son, Izhaan, with Sania having primary custody. Shoaib has faced criticism for his limited presence in Izhaan's life. In a recent interview, Shoaib discussed his close bond with Izhaan, describing their relationship as more of a friendship. He visits Izhaan twice a month in Dubai and stays involved through regular video calls and shared sports activities. Shoaib's marriage to actress Sana Javed in January 2024 has drawn attention. Meanwhile, Sania continues to focus on her career and raising Izhaan, who often accompanies her to events. Both parents remain committed to co-parenting.
