Influencer Malvika Sitlani’s Instagram feed is the most relatable one for all new moms. The influencer has never shied away from talking about—how tough pregnancy and overwhelming can be. Malvika’s journey hasn’t been easy at all. During her pregnancy, she also went through a separation from her husband Akhil Aryan.
Recently, Malvika opened up about her personal life during an Ask Me Anything session on ‘Gram. An Instagram user asked about her journey after welcoming her daughter Abigail. She responded to the question and wrote, “To be honest, it wasn’t a pleasant journey for me considering everything I went through with my relationship + The pregnancy took a toll on me mentally and physically. I absolutely love Abby but I still have a lot to heal from.“
It takes a lot of courage to talk about healing from your relationship. Kudos to Malvika for being this honest!
Malvika and Akhil dated for over a decade before tying the knot in March 2020. Watching them go their separate ways was every bit heartbreaking. IMO, Malvika handled their separation with utmost grace and dignity. Now, that she has entered a new phase in her life, I am beyond thrilled for her.
In another Instagram story, she confessed her pregnancy was hard for her. She responded to a question about her pregnancy period and wrote, “Not beautiful as such. I’m sure a lot of mums would agree with me. The initial months are pure survival and learning for mum and baby. It’s extremely difficult. It’s okay to dislike parenting, it’s okay to dislike your new job, it’s okay to feel like you’re not ready.“
If she stumbles upon this, I just want Malvika to know—I am proud of the woman you are and the woman you are becoming!
