Shoaib Malik Marriage: How Many Times He Had Married?
Shoaib Malik has married thrice now. He was first married to Ayesha Siddiqui in 2002 but divorced her in 2010 right before his wedding to Sania Mirza. Malik tied the knot with Mirza, amid much fanfare, in a traditional Hyderabadi Muslim ceremony in April 2010. Their marriage lasted 8 years before cracks began to appear. Rumours of their impending divorce have been circulating since 2021.
Shoaib Malik’s Surprise Wedding to Sana Javed
On Saturday, Shoaib Malik announced on social media that he had tied the knot with popular Pakistani TV actress Sana Javed in an intimate Nikkah ceremony held in Karachi. Malik shared photos from the wedding ceremony which show the newlyweds dressed in traditional attire.
The wedding appears to confirm speculation that Malik and Mirza’s marriage had ended. According to Sania’s father Imran Mirza, Sania had taken a ‘Khula’ from Shoaib, referring to a wife’s right under Islamic law to divorce her husband unilaterally.

Sana Javed is a 28-year-old actress best known for her performances in popular Pakistani dramas like ‘Mera Pehla Pyaar’ and ‘Ruswai’. She was previously married to singer Umair Jaswal but the two divorced in 2021. Javed has acted in several hit serials on Urdu television and also ventured into film with 2021’s ‘Motorcycle Girl’.
Rumours of Malik dating Javed surfaced last year after it was reported that he had separated from Mirza. While neither confirmed their relationship then, Malik’s marriage to the actress now appears to confirm that he had split from his wife Sania Mirza some time back.
