Recent speculation regarding Bollywood power couple Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli expecting their second child has been debunked as an old and edited image surfaced on the internet. Fans had been buzzing with excitement after a picture showing Anushka cradling her baby bump alongside Virat went viral, but it has now been revealed to be from a previous event.
The image, depicting Anushka in a golden saree and Virat in a traditional white ensemble, was compared to a photo from Diwali celebrations in 2018 where the couple wore the same outfits. Anushka had shared a different picture from the same occasion on her Instagram, and her brother Karnesh Ssharma also posted a similar photo on his Instagram stories.
Despite the false alarm, fans had previously showered the couple with well-wishes and blessings for their supposed second pregnancy. Anushka and Virat, who celebrated their wedding anniversary on December 11, recently shared glimpses of their intimate celebration. Anushka posted a candid moment of cutting a chocolate cake with Virat, surrounded by their families.
The anniversary celebration featured Anushka in an off-shoulder black dress adorned with silver work, while Virat looked dapper in a formal navy blue shirt and denim jeans. The couple, who tied the knot in a private ceremony in Tuscany, Italy, on December 11, 2017, welcomed their first child, a daughter named Vamika, in January 2021.
Known for their privacy, especially concerning their personal life and child, Anushka and Virat have kept details about their family life away from the public eye.
