Aamir Khan Says Girlfriend Gauri Spratt Met A 'Healed, Better' Version Of Him After 2 Divorces
Aamir revealed, 'During both divorces, we didn't even hire separate lawyers. Just one lawyer, one conversation. That was it. These weren't battles, just two people parting as partners, not adversaries." Aamir said, 'But for a respectful, loving bond to continue after a marriage ends, both people have to want that. Reena is gracious, Kiran is gracious, and I've tried to be the same."
Aamir explained his bond with his ex-wives and recalled, 'When Reena's father was unwell and refused treatment, she called me. I convinced him to get help for his cancer. You can't fake that kind of trust. At Ira's wedding, seeing us all together, I realised how rare this is."
Meanwhile, Aamir Khan recently made his much-anticipated red carpet debut with girlfriend Gauri Spratt at the grand premiere of Sitaare Zameen Par in Mumbai. The actor was joined by his youngest son, Azad Rao Khan, from his previous marriage with Kiran Rao. The trio posed together for the paparazzi, marking Aamir and Gauri's first official public appearance as a couple.
The couple's red carpet debut follows the confirmation of their relationship earlier this year. Aamir introduced Gauri during an informal pre-birthday celebration with the media in March. Hailing from Bengaluru, Gauri works with Aamir Khan Films and has a background in fashion, styling, and photography. She has a Tamilian mother, an Irish father, and a six-year-old son from a previous relationship.
Aamir shared that Gauri is still adjusting to Bollywood's limelight and hasn't seen many of his films apart from Lagaan and Dangal. He also mentioned that Gauri has met his close circle, including Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan, and has been warmly welcomed by his family.
