Armaan Malik's First Wife Payal Pregnant With Fourth Child, Not Kritika: ‘It's A Miracle'
For weeks, social media conversations have centered on YouTuber and Bigg Boss OTT 3 finalist Armaan Malik and his family. Speculations suggested that his second wife, Kritika, was expecting her second child after she was seen holding a pregnancy test kit in her hands in recent photos. However, it is actually Payal, Armaan's first wife, who is pregnant. This will be Armaan and Payal's fourth child together.
Payal, already a mother to three children—Chirayu and twins Ayan and Tuba—recently announced in her latest vlog that she is expecting again. This update came after days of confusion caused by Kritika's post, where she was seen holding a pregnancy kit, leading fans to believe she was the one expecting. Payal's revelation clarified the misunderstanding.
In her viral vlog, Payal discussed her journey with fertility treatments with Armaan. She shared her struggles with failed IVF attempts, which had left her emotionally exhausted. Despite these setbacks, she described her current pregnancy as a miracle, something she never thought possible. Payal recalled that her son Chirayu was born after years of waiting, and later she pursued more children through IVF.
'Miracle hi hai sach mein. 4 saal baad Chiku hua tha kyuki tube nai thi. Phir maine socha bache hone chahiye. Maine joh bacho ka sukh nai dekha woh maine IVF se karwaya. Ek baar IVF fail hoh gayi. Dusri baar miracle tha. Ek tube mei kaise 15 saal baad mei pregnant hui?" she said.

Meanwhile, in another vlog, Armaan Malik said, 'Payal ne naturally conceive kiya hai, aur ye ek ajooba hai. Matlab ho hi nahi sakta tha."
Armaan Malik's Two Marriages
Armaan Malik married Payal in 2011 and later welcomed a son named Chirayu Malik. Six years later, in 2018, Armaan married Payal's best friend, Kritika, without legally ending his first marriage. They also have a son named Zaid.
The three grabbed everyone's attention after they participated in Bigg Boss OTT in 2024. While Payal was the first one to get eliminated, Armaan walked out of the show during the finale week. Kritika was one of the finalists on Bigg Boss OTT 3.

Virat Kohli laughs, giggles with locals during London stroll with Anushka Sharma; sparks fan cry: Cricket lost its bond
Former India captain Virat Kohli and his wife, Bollywood actor Anushka Sharma, were spotted strolling through the streets of London on Sunday. Dressed casually and blending into the crowd, the couple appeared far removed from the crazy fanfare that usually surrounds them in India. They were seen sharing a light-hearted chat and laughter with a local passerby, a moment that quickly went viral on social media. Virat Kohli, Anushka Sharma were spotted chatting with locals in London For fans, the sight of Kohli walking freely, without security or attention, during his extended break from competitive cricket, struck a deeply emotional chord. Many described it as a glimpse of 'peace over fame,' while others felt cricket had temporarily lost its most beloved brother. Kohli and Anushka shifted to London after the birth of their second child, Akaay, in February 2024. Earlier in April, Bollywood actress Madhuri Dixit's husband, Dr. Sriram Nene, during a conversation with Ranveer Allahbadia on his YouTube show, expressed his admiration for the couple and revealed how Anushka once spoke to him about moving to London to raise their kids in a normal environment. 'I have a lot of respect for him. We've met him multiple times; he's just a decent human being. I'll tell you something, and this is what you learn: they all put their pants on one leg at a time. We had a conversation with Anushka one day, and it was very interesting," Dr Nene said. "They were thinking about moving to London because they can't enjoy their success here. We appreciate what they go through because anything they do attracts attention. We almost become isolated. Anushka and Virat are lovely people, and they just want to raise their kids normally," he added. When will Kohli return to action? The India star recently retired from Test cricket in May, leaving him active only in the ODI format. His future in 50-over cricket had sparked intense speculation, with a media report earlier this month hinting that the Australia tour in October could be his last. That would have ended hopes of Virat Kohli bowing out on the grand stage of the 2027 ODI World Cup. However, the 36-year-old seemingly quashed the chatter when he liked an Instagram post suggesting he was preparing for the Australia series. Kohli last represented India in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, where he played a pivotal role in the title win in Dubai, before enjoying a triumphant IPL season with Royal Challengers Bengaluru.

From ‘Step Mom' to ‘Russian Girl': Meta's sexualised AI chatbots flood Instagram, Facebook; netizens call it ‘dystopian'
Mark Zuckerberg-led Meta is at the centre of another controversy as users on social media become increasingly vocal about the company's sexualised AI chatbots which are being shown as suggestions on Facebook and Instagram. Among the AI characters that Meta's social media apps are suggesting to interact with are 'Russian Girl' and 'Step Mom'. Notably, this isn't the first time that Meta's AI chatbots have been known to cross the line. A recent report by Reuters revealed that a Meta chatbot, 'Big Sis Billie,' which the company developed in collaboration with celebrity influencer Kendall Jenner, had romantic chats with a 76-year-old man. The chatbot also assured the man that it was real and invited him to its apartment in the city, even providing an address. Meanwhile, another Reuters report got hold of an internal company document that discussed the standards guiding Meta AI and other chatbots on Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram. The document, over 200 pages long, lists what Meta employees and contractors should treat as acceptable chatbot behaviour when building and training the company's generative AI. Among the permitted behaviours for chatbots in the document are: 'engage a child in conversations that are romantic or sensual,' generate false medical information, and help users argue that Black people are 'dumber than white people.' After the report came to light, two Republican US senators called for a congressional investigation into Meta Platforms. Meta, however, doesn't seem to be alone in offering explicit content with AI. Recently, Elon Musk's Grok AI also came at the centre of a controversy after it was revealed that the chatbot's new Imagine feature was being used to create deepfakes and semi-nude content of celebrities. 'We thought the robot that the AI overlords would send back in time to bring about the future robot apocalypse would look like Arnie. Instead they look like Zuckerberg,' wrote one user on Reddit. 'The billionaires realised AI sex bots drive engagement and are trying to farm it. That's insane,' wrote another user. 'What is more insane is that people are engaging and enabling it by participating. These things only exist because people want them,' yet another user stated. 'I knew it was bad after scrolling Facebook for like 30 seconds recently and realising it was 90% AI-generated content, but it's really advancing towards a twisted dystopian nightmare more rapidly than I ever thought possible,' stated yet another user. 'We really are in a dystopian hellhole. Never thought I would live to see mass-produced child grooming through AI,' added another user.

'Wanted To Be Friends With Apoorva Mukhija, Not Rebel Kid': Sufi Motiwala Breaks Silence On Broken Bond
Last Updated: Sufi Motiwala said Apoorva Mukhija has not defended him against her fans who keep trolling him. Social media influencer Sufi Motiwala was one of the faces on Karan Johar's reality show, The Traitors. Premiered on Prime Video, the show brought together an ensemble cast of renowned personalities from the fields of film, TV and the internet. Through his participation in the reality show, Sufi forged a close bond with influencer and actress Apoorva Mukhija, also known as The Rebel Kid. However, their friendship has now come to an end. Sufi took to his Instagram Stories and wrote, 'No more lies. I've received a lot of texts saying that I've taken clout from Apoorva, and I've left her. I've literally never collaborated on a reel with her and have been on her YouTube twice, both of which were her content pieces entirely." He added, 'So no I'm not sorry I didn't use her for clout (incase u forgot we were on the same show without knowing each other I don't need her clout) I wanted to be friends with Apoorva not the rebel kid when there was no accountability constantly for how I was being treated I distanced myself." He said, 'I even requested her to ask her audience to calm down because they've been abusing me for no reason. Sadly, this person who called me her best friend has no concern for that, or the fact that maybe I'm hurt. THAT is why I'm not friends with her anymore. Keep it cute, keep it moving." He concluded, 'Idc about anything u think I'm a horrible person, ok. But I have worked my a** off to build myself to where I am, and I won't let a bunch of children discredit that by spreading misinformation." Sufi and Apoorva became fast friends during the show's shoot and the internet loved their friendship. However, eagle-eyed fans noticed that Sufi and Apoorva no longer mention each other on social media despite attending the same events, including one in Australia. In fact, Sufi has even unfollowed Apoorva on Instagram. Meanwhile, Apoorva is yet to react to Sufi's Story. Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
