Afghanistan cricket star Rashid Khan has finally addressed the buzz surrounding his personal life after photos of him with a woman at the launch event of the Khan Charity Foundation went viral. The images sparked widespread curiosity among fans about the woman’s identity.
Amid growing speculation, Rashid took to Instagram to clarify the situation, confirming that the woman in the pictures is indeed his wife, marking his second marriage.
“On August 2nd 2025, I began a new and meaningful chapter of my life. I had my nikkah done and married a woman who embodies the love, peace and partnership I always hoped for. I recently took my wife to a charity event, and it’s unfortunate to see assumptions being made from something so simple. The truth is straightforward, she is my wife, and we stand together with nothing to hide. To everyone who has shown kindness, support and understanding, thank you,” Rashid wrote.
Rashid’s second wedding took place less than a year after his first marriage in October 2024. Interestingly, all three of his brothers — Amir Khalil, Zakiullah, and Raza Khan — also got married on the same day. The ceremony was attended by several notable Afghanistan cricketers, including Mohammad Nabi, Azmatullah Omarzai, Najibullah Zadran, Rahmat Shah, and Mujeeb Ur Rahman.
