Natasa Stankovic and Hardik Pandya have announced separation. On Thursday evening, the couple issued an official statement and confirmed that they are no longer together. They mentioned that it was a “tough decision” for both of them and shared that they will continue to co-parent their 3-year-old son, Agastya.

“After 4 years of being together, Hardik and I have decided to mutually part ways. We tried our best together and gave it our all, and we believe this is in the best interest for the both of us. This was a tough decision for us to make, given the joy, mutual respect and companionship we enjoyed together and as we grew a family,” the statement read.

“We are blessed with Agastya, who will continue to be at the centre of both our lives and we will co-parent to ensure that we give him everything that we can for his happiness. We sincerely request your support and understanding to give us privacy during this difficult and sensitive time,” it added.

Former Bigg Boss contestant and dancer Natasa Stankovic married cricketer Hardik Pandya on May 31, 2020. The couple renewed their wedding vows according to the Hindu and Christian rituals in February 2023.

However, speculations regarding their separation started in May this year when netizens noticed that the model removed the ‘Pandya’ surname from her Instagram handle. Later, a Reddit post titled “Natasa and Hardik separated?” also went viral and caught everyone’s attention. The post claimed that the two were posting pictures with each other and questioned Natasa’s absence from IPL 2024 matches.

Earlier this month, Natasa posted a video on Instagram stories that seemed to confirm the separation rumours. In the clip, she said, “Just a gentle reminder from me to you again, God did not remove the Red Sea, He simply parted it. Which means, he won’t remove a problem from your life, he will simply make a way through it.”

Meanwhile, Natasa has seemingly moved to her hometown, Serbia. On Wednesday, she was spotted at the Mumbai airport with her son, Agastya. She was seen carrying bags as she ignored the paparazzi and avoided posing for the cameras.
