Renowned actress Saman Ansari recently shared intimate details about her personal life on Ahmad Ali Butt’s podcast, discussing her early marriage, divorce, and subsequent move to Dubai.
Ansari revealed that she entered her first marriage at a young age. Reflecting on her early years, she said, “I went to Canada from America to get higher education, and then my maternal grandparents said they were getting her married. An announcement was made in the mosque that a girl studying is available for marriage and that people interested can reach out.” She noted that such announcements were common at the time due to the lack of social media and mobile phones.
She continued, “The first time my husband saw me was on the day we got engaged. During my marriage, because of my education and my husband’s job, I constantly moved back and forth between America and Canada.” Ansari also recounted that she had a son but divorced when he was six years old.
Following the divorce, Ansari moved to the United Arab Emirates, leaving her child behind due to divorce laws that required the child to remain in their accustomed environment. “I also decided not to come to Pakistan because my parents would have been subjected to taunts concerning me, as a mother, leaving behind my child and getting a divorce. I didn’t want to put my parents through that, so I got their permission and moved to Dubai,” she explained.
