Natasha Stankovic Faces Backlash After Hardik Pandya Divorce: The Internet’s Reaction is Unbelievable

The recent confirmation of the divorce between Indian cricketer Hardik Pandya and his wife Natasha Stankovic has ignited a firestorm of speculation and vitriol across social media platforms. The couple, who had been married for four years, officially announced their separation through an Instagram post, marking the end of their marriage which began in 2020. Despite their decision to disable comments on their respective posts, the public’s reactions have been anything but subdued.

The confirmation of the split came as a shock to many, especially following Natasha’s deletion of numerous pictures featuring Hardik from her Instagram account. This action served as a catalyst for rampant speculation and unfounded assumptions about the reasons behind their separation. In the wake of the announcement, Natasha was inundated with a deluge of hostile and derogatory comments.

The social media environment has, regrettably, facilitated a culture where judgments are cast without a full understanding of the situation. Supporters of Hardik Pandya have not hesitated to direct disparaging remarks towards Natasha, with some comments crossing the boundaries of decency. One particularly offensive remark suggested that Hardik would inevitably find someone better, while another comment instructed Hardik to “let Natasha go” and implied that he deserved a superior partner. The vitriol reached such extremes that one individual even inquired about the material assets Natasha might be taking with her.

Amid the tumult, the couple has made a point of addressing their shared responsibility for their four-year-old son, Agastya. Hardik and Natasha, who became engaged in 2020 and welcomed their son in July of the same year, have issued statements underscoring their commitment to prioritising Agastya’s well-being and ensuring his happiness. Both parents have pledged to remain actively involved in their son's life despite the dissolution of their marriage.
