Actor-producer Arbaaz Khan and model-actor Giorgia Andriani have decided to part ways after being in a relationship for several years.
Giorgia confirmed their breakup during a recent interview, expressing that while their relationship had its emotional ties, they both were aware it wasn't destined for permanence.
In her interaction with Pinkvilla, Giorgia candidly acknowledged the end of their relationship, emphasizing that despite the emotional attachment she still holds for Arbaaz, the dynamic they shared had an understanding that their differences might lead to an eventual separation.
She expressed discomfort with the label 'girlfriend,' finding it belittling. Giorgia clarified that Arbaaz's past relationship with Malaika Arora did not significantly impact their bond.
Speculations about their breakup had circulated for a while, with their last public appearance together during an IPL match earlier this year.
Giorgia had previously stated their lack of intention to marry, asserting their strong friendship while disengaging from the notion of marital commitment.
Their relationship, which commenced in 2017, seemed to have a mutual understanding regarding the absence of plans for marriage.
Arbaaz Khan, previously married to Malaika Arora, shares a son, Arhaan Khan, with her.
Despite their divorce in 2017, Arbaaz and Malaika maintain an amicable relationship, co-parenting their son while Malaika found companionship with actor Arjun Kapoor.
Both Arbaaz and Malaika have evolved over the years, nurturing a more accepting attitude toward each other's growth and changes.
Their mutual respect and maturity contribute to their amicable co-parenting dynamic.
