There is a new reveal in the Dhanashree Verma-Yuzvendra Chahal divorce saga. The couple, who filed for divorce in February, have been separated for more than two years, as per a report in Bar and Bench.
Separated since 2022
The report mentions that the Bombay High Court has been approached by the couple to waive off the six-month cooling period before finalising their divorce. The court will give decision on the matter tomorrow, March 20. The reason behind this urgency is Chahal's participation in the upcoming IPL, which begins on Saturday, March 22.
The report mentions that the couple married in 2020 and have been separated since June 2022. The court is making the exception as the couple had already been living apart for over two and a half years and had come to an agreement about the payment of alimony.
Decision tomorrow
When the former couple filed for divorce in February with the family court, they also asked for the cooling period to be waived off. It was not allowed by the court at the time as Chahal had not paid Dhanashree the alimony in full. Of ₹4.75 crore, he had paid only ₹2.37 crore.
They later moved to High Court, which said there was compliance with the consent terms. "Thus it is clear that there is no impediment in the facts and circumstances of the case in granting the applications... Accordingly, impugned order dated 20th February is quashed and set aside and the writ is allowed," the High Court ordered, allowing the plea.

{{/usCountry}}The rumours about Dhanashree and Chahal's divorce began after the couple unfollowed each other on Instagram, which sparked widespread speculation. Dhanashree has been hit with vicious trolling since.
Responding to the same, she wrote on Instagram, "The past few days have been incredibly tough for my family and me. What's truly upsetting is the baseless writing, devoid of fact-checking, and the character assassination of my reputation by faceless trolls spreading hate.'
