Ayesha Jahanzeb is an educationist, host and now actress. Currently, she is a part of Burns Road Ke Romeo Juliet as Shaggo Phupho who everybody likes. She has also hosted other shows like Khabarnaak and Chocolate Times and now she is successfully trying her hand at acting. She was a guest on Fuchsia and shared the emotional ups and downs of her life.
Ayesha revealed that Jahanzeb is actually her first husband’s name and she always carried it in order to honour him. They were really young when they fell in love and he passed away after 7 years of marriage. Her husband gave their kids their grandfather’s name so she kept his name as he used to say that he knows that his name will live. She got married again but her second husband said that he is okay with how she is in life.
Here is what she shared:
She also shared the emotional story of losing her ex-husband and how that pushed her to work. She started out as a teacher, a job she feels is the best but not properly respected in Pakistan. She shared how things change when you are losing the man, the link you have with your in-laws and how she decided to stand up for her children.
Here is her story of resilience:
Ayesha shared that she met her now husband Haris in a very random manner. He was helping him for some visa documents when she was taking her kids for a vacation as they felt very low due to life’s circumstances. At first he was kind of rude to her but they later on became friends and he also became friends with her mother. His mother later on asked him to marry her and the rest as they say is history.
This is the beautiful twist:
She also shared that she had three kids from her first marriage and her second husband was okay with them as his children but she wanted to give him his own kids and the couple had two children together. Ayesha said that she did not want to see him regret not having his own biological children later in life.
