John Abraham and Priya Runchal’s marriage has been covered in a veil of mystery since the beginning. For starters, the actor announced the news of his marriage that took place in London, on Twitter rather nonchalantly, where he wrote, “Wishing you and your loved ones a blessed 2014! May this year bring you love, good fortune and joy. Love, John and Priya Abraham.” On his return to Mumbai, he wasn’t accompanied by Priya, who apparently had to stay back to pursue her studies. Later, at a press conference, John assured that he will make it official by throwing a party for his Bollywood friends, but that never happened either. Though the couple were spotted together at the Indian Super League Auction, they did not look comfortable with each other and weren’t even walking together. And now, rumour has it that all is not well between the two, so much so that sources close to the actor say that a divorce is on the cards. Reportedly the two are not on talking terms, and at a recent promotional event for his film Welcome Back, John avoided all questions related to his wife. Is it a case of a relationship not working out because of long distance? Only time will tell. But as speculations keep brewing, here are some of Bollywood’s most heartbreaking divorces that left fans shattered.

Aamir Khan and Reena Dutta
They were childhood sweethearts. She stood by the actor during his initial struggling days and had been hugely supportive. She even did a cameo in the song Papa Kehte Hai, the song from Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak that shot Aamir to fame. Though the couple have always been secretive about marital life, news of their growing distance were doing the rounds. Finally, after 15 years of marriage, Aamir and Reena parted ways, she got the custody of the kids and Aamir went on to marry Kiran Rao, though he still shares a strong bond with his kids and a cordial one with ex-wife Reena. They have two kids, Junaid and Ira.

Anurag Kashyap and Kalki Koechlin
Anurag and Kalki's torrid love story ended on May 18, 2015 when their divorce came through with mutual consent and minimum fuss. The couple had tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in Ooty on April 30, 2011, after living-in for two years. However the friction and difference soon came in the way and resulted in unpleasantness. Reports and sources suggest that though the couple loved each other, they were very different people who didn’t get along together.
