He is married to Nadia Afridi, with whom he has five daughters. Shahid Afridi is now the grandfather of two adorable kids.
Recently, Shahid Afridi appeared in Samaa TV’s podcast, hosted by Sawera Pasha. In the podcast, the cricketer affectionately talked about his daughters and grand children.
Talking about the birth of Aqsa, he said, “I was having a haircut when I heard the news of my firstborn. I was shaking while holding her, and I felt the same way when Ansha arrived. I am truly blessed to have daughters and grandchildren. Being a father and grandfather is a gift. I consider my grandchildren as my own children; they are all my kids. I have seen my life change with the birth of each daughter. My life has improved, and I am very happy and blessed to have five daughters. It is important for a father to spend time with his children. In recent times, a father’s role in raising and guiding children has become even more important than that of a mother.” Here is the link to the video:
