Lataa and Sanjeev tied the knot in 2010, and after 15 years of marriage, the couple decided to part ways. They share a son together named Aarav. Lataa took to social media to announce the news and requested fans and media not to ask her any questions regarding the reason for their personal decision and urged everyone to respect her privacy. Taking to Instagram, Lataa wrote, 'After a prolonged silence, I declare that I, Lataa Saberwal, have been separated from my husband, Mr. Sanjeev Seth. I give my gratitude to him for giving me a lovely son. I wish him all the best for his future life." As per screen reports, Bigg Boss 19 is set to premiere on the last weekend of August this year and will reportedly continue to run for five months, making it one of the longest seasons yet.
