4. Indian tennis player Sania Mirza took the internet by storm after she broke the big news of her marriage with Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Malik in 2008. The duo tied the knot in Hyderabad and in 2018, they welcomed their baby boy- Izhaan Mirza Malik. In an interaction with a Pakistani portal, Malik stated that he wasn’t nervous about marrying Sania due to the strained relationship between the two countries. More so, he continued that, in a marriage, people don’t concern themself with where their partner is from or what is going on between the countries or in politics. He added that if somebody loves someone and gets married to that person, then that should be all that matters, regardless of which country they come from. We do agree with Shoaib and their photos on social media prove it right!
