"We will co-parent to ensure that we give him everything that we can for his happiness" - Hardik Pandya and Natasa Stankovic on Agastya

On July 18, Hardik Pandya confirmed that Natasa Stankovic and him are separating after four years of marriage. He mentioned that they mutually decided to part ways.

Hardik emphasized that the two would co-parent their son Agastya, making sure that he gets everything. The 30-year-old wrote:

"After 4 years of being together, Natasa and I have decided to mutually part ways. We tried our best together and gave it our all, and we believe this is in the best interest for the both of us. This was a tough decision for us to make, given the joy, mutual respect and companionship we enjoyed together and as we grew a family."

"We are blessed with Agastya, who will continue to be at the centre of both our lives and we will co-parent to ensure that we give him everything that we can for his happiness. We sincerely request your support and understanding to give us the privacy during this difficult and sensitive time."

Hardik Pandya was India's vice-captain in the 2024 T20 World Cup-winning campaign. He was expected to take over the reins from Rohit Sharma, who announced his retirement from T20Is after the showpiece event. However, the team management looked in another direction, roping in Suryakumar Yadav as the new T20I skipper.
