The picture, sources later claimed, was taking Dutee’s sister Anjana’s wedding. She had posted a series of pictures from the wedding on her Instagram account.
Dutee was the first Indian athlete to announce being in a same-sex relationship with Monalisa in 2019 and made headlines. Although Dutee did not get any support from her family for her life choices, she chose to settle down with her partner.
Chand had also stated earlier that she was unaware of the LGTQ movement when she acknowledged her relationship.
Recently, she participated in the dance reality show Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 10 which was aired on Colors TV, and dedicated one of her performances to Monalisa in one of the episodes. After the performance, Dutee also received a surprise video call from her partner.
