Speculation about their split began during the 2024 Indian Premier League season when a Reddit post noted that Natasa had deleted individual photos of Hardik from her Instagram account. Around the same time, she also removed Hardik’s name from her profile.

“After 4 years of being together, Natasa and I have decided to mutually part ways. We tried our best together and gave it our all, and we believe this is in the best interest for both of us. This was a tough decision for us to make, given the joy, mutual respect, and companionship we enjoyed together as we grew a family,” Hardik shared on Instagram.

“We are blessed with Agastya, who will continue to be at the center of both our lives, and we will co-parent to ensure that we give him everything that we can for his happiness,” he added.

“We sincerely request your support and understanding to give us privacy during this difficult and sensitive time,” Hardik concluded.
