With a new year comes news of a new beginning for Maheen Ghani. Maheen broke the news of her divorce from Shahbaz Taseer on Twitter. This was not the fairytale ending everyone hoped for Shahbaz Taseer and Maheen Ghani.
Even her message, in the end, was that of love and patience. Looks like Maheen is exhausted by being brave all the time. She posted a long thread about how the past decade has been for her not just the year.
To say this past decade has been a whirlwind would be an understatement! It has been a time of transition, learning, trauma, waiting, healing and then some magic. From marriage to tragic losses, kidnapping to anguish on so many different levels. From prayers to miracles.

Yet she’s still looking to screening negativity out of her life in 2020.
May 2020 filter out all the toxicity out of our lives and may we continue to thrive. Be kind, and be loyal. It goes a long way. Happy new decade! Light and love to you all.

She’s tired of being brave all the time and wished for health, love and healing.
You have to feel one to experience the other. But I pray this coming decade doesn’t require me to be as brave as I have had to be. May it be kinder to all of us and may we be good role models for our children and kinder to one another. Here’s to wishing health love and healing.

In the end, she opened up about the love and patience it took to wait for a husband everyone assumed was dead. How motherhood brought fulfillment. Five years of waiting couldn’t make her marriage last.
Yet, despite all she’s experienced Maheen Ghani has emerged a better person and she’s proud of that.
From motherhood which is pure magic to now a divorce. It has changed and evolved me into a stronger more secure version of myself. For the first time I can say I am immensely proud of who I am today and the respect I am able to demand. Without pain there is no happiness.

Maheen did not speak of the reason behind the divorce and ended things with kindness and patience. According to Reviewit.pk, the divorce has been attributed to Shahbaz Taseer cheating on his wife. The outlet reports that Maheen Ghani caught Shahbaz Taseer cheating.
He cheated?

Then there was speculated that Shahbaz Taseer wants to remarry. There is still no official announcement by Shahbaz Taseer regarding the divorce.
@maheenghani honestly u shouldn't hv divorce. A wife should give enough space to her husband that if he wants to hv another wife , he should do it in Halal way. I.e 2nd Nikkah . You should ask for your right but not put impositions on your husband rights

Some people suggested that there’s a need to respect Maheen’s boundaries and not jumping to conclusions.
It's not an assumption, but a question. Learn to read before jumping the gun! She also mentioned people being "disloyal" hence I asked. It's up to her whether she wants to answer it or not. And neither am I starting a "rumour"! God, Pakistanis really like to jump to conclusions!!

Netizens put out heartfelt messages in support of Maheen.
It is good spirit that u accet the things confidently. No man on the earth has right to play trucks with woman. A man must b loyal and respectable as he expects from his wife. He must understand his wife also has same role like him. Well I must appreciate ur courge, determination

I am so disappointed in men that all these stories don’t surprise me anymore. Be your own hero girls. Cut your toxic partner off. https://t.co/muv0dDm0VQ
