Aishwarya Rai Bachchan shared a series of pictures on Instagram featuring two special moments of her life – her daughter Aaradhya’s birthday celebration and her father Krishnaraj Rai’s birth anniversary. One of the snapshots shows Aaradhya respectfully bowing in front of a portrait of her late grandfather. Another features Aishwarya and Aaradhya posing alongside Aishwarya’s mother, Brindya Rai.

A throwback picture of Aishwarya cradling a newborn Aaradhya tugged at fans’ hearts, while the last picture showed Aaradhya’s birthday celebration in Mumbai. The caption read, “Happy birthday to the eternal love of my life dearest daddy-ajjaa and my darling Aaradhya. My heart, my soul…forever and beyond.

However, the absence of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s husband, Abhishek Bachchan, in both posts didn’t go unnoticed. The actor’s absence fuelled the rumours surrounding their separation. Fans took to the comments section, speculating about Abhishek’s whereabouts. One user questioned, “Where is Abhishek sir?” while another pointed out the absence of Amitabh Bachchan and Abhishek in the pictures.

Rumours about Abhishek and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s divorce have been circulating on social media for quite some time now. These rumours gained traction when the couple arrived separately at a high-profile wedding In July. The speculation intensified when Abhishek liked an Instagram post discussing the increase in “grey divorces,” which further fuelled the divorce rumours
