After dating each other for some time, the couple finally tied the knot in 2015 and are now parents to two cute children. However, their love story wasn't always so perfect.

Talking about how Harbhajan Singh had fallen in love with her, Geeta shared that he had seen one of her posts and it was probably love at first sight for the cricketer. "Harbhajan had asked for my number from his fellow-cricketer Yuvraj Singh, as he had a lot of friends. After this, Harbhajan messaged me. But I didn't respond to his message as I had no idea or interest in cricket or cricketers. They had just won the world cup back then..." Adding to it, Geeta further said, "I replied to him a few days later, congratulating him. Sometime later we spoke again.
