 "This player of Team India had himself divorced his parents, the reality will blow your mind!")
Who does not know India’s famous cricketer Yuvraj Singh? Whenever Indian cricket is discussed, his name comes first. His brilliant batting and all-round performance in the 2011 World Cup is impossible to forget. His personal life was as emotional as his powerful performances on the field. But very few people know that there is a painful story behind this hero. A story in which a son himself had to suggest his parents’ separation. So let’s know why this player of Team India got his parents divorced personally.
Why did Yuvraj divorce his parents personally?…
Yuvraj Singh was born in Chandigarh. His father Yograj Singh was not only a brilliant cricketer but also became a popular actor in Punjabi and Hindi films. However, they are known to be very tough and angry. There were frequent fights in the house and young Yuvraj had to spend his childhood in that environment.
Yuvraj had revealed in an earlier interview that the atmosphere in his home was full of tension over the years. Fights, arguments and anger had left no peace in the house. He said that when he was about 14 or 15 years old, he told his parents that if they were not happy with each other, it would be better to separate. He said that I felt that if they continue to fight, it will neither be good for them nor for me. So I advised them to separate.
Yuvraj Singh’s career and father Yograj Singh’s anger…
Yuvraj’s father Yograj Singh was a legendary player of his time. But he imposed his unfulfilled cricketing dreams on his son. Yuvraj had said that his father wanted his son to fulfill the dreams that he himself could not fulfill. He said that my father was a very hard working man. They wanted to fulfill their dreams through me. His biggest wish was to play for India. While this strictness made Yuvraj a stronger player, it also strained his career and his relationship with his father Yograj Singh. In time, Yuvraj became India’s superstar cricketer, but the relationship remained strained. Yograj Singh had said in an interview that there is no relationship between them anymore.
After his parents’ divorce, Yuvraj…
When Yuvraj’s parents separated, Yuvraj moved in with his mother, Shabnam Singh. She alone raised him and supported him in every difficulty. Yuvraj once said that only a mother can do what my mother did for me. I will always be grateful for their sacrifices.
