Mumbai: Sohail Khan’s ex-wife Seema Sajdeh recently shared her thoughts on the real deal-breaker in a marriage.
Seema, who stars in Netflix’s ‘Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives’, shared during an interview with Janice Sequeira, that she doesn’t consider extra-marital affairs as deal-breakers in a marriage.
Talking about her divorce with Sohail, Seema said that divorces can be tougher for men than women as the latter can cope with emotions better.
“When you’re in a marriage where you’re constantly bickering and at each other, you’re not giving your 100% to your kids also. They’re losing out. Seeing this irritable parent in the house, the atmosphere is tense, you can literally cut it with a knife because it’s so thick,” Seema said.
She continued, “I’m saying honestly, an affair is not a deal-breaker. We are human. You grow from it. And it also depends on what type of affair it was. Even if you’re thinking about someone, you’ve anyway cheated. The deal-breaker actually is to see how the two of you are going through life. Life is short, live it and be happy. Laughter is the best medicine, and the day you stop laughing together, it’s over.”
“You should be able to reach a point where you like that person again. You shouldn’t hate that person… You tend to get so complacent in a marriage. At that time if you’d asked me, I would’ve blamed everything on him,” she added.
Seema and Sohail, who got married in 1998 and were together for almost two decades, got separated in 2022.
The couple has two sons, Nirvaan and Yohan.
After parting ways with Sohail, Seema is rumoured to be dating Vikram Ahuja.
