Are the controversial couple Payal and Armaan finally divorced, or is he getting married for the fourth time this time? Read further to know everything about the situation .
Popular YouTuber and Bigg Boss OTT 3 contestant, Armaan Malik, is back in the headlines. This time, it’s about serious issues involving his personal life, especially around his marriages to Payal Malik and Kritika Malik. For a while immediately, there have been rumours that Armaan and his first wife, Payal, are heading for a divorce, while he plans to continue life with his second wife, Kritika, who is currently pregnant. According to the report, the High Court has directed Armaan to divorce one of his wives, as per the Hindu Marriage Act, which allows only one legal marriage at a time for Hindus. If he failed to comply, he could face legal consequences. Reportedly, Armaan chose to separate from Payal and has filed for divorce, which the court has immediately granted.
Legal Trouble Over Multiple Marriages
Back in August 2025, Armaan, along with Payal and Kritika, was summoned by the Patiala District Court. The notice was in response to a petition by Davinder Rajput, who claimed that Armaan wasn’t just married twice but four times, which would be a serious violation of the law. This case highlighted ongoing concerns about Armaan allegedly promoting polygamy.
Their Bigg Boss OTT 3 Entry Sparked Debate
Armaan, Payal, and Kritika entered Bigg Boss OTT 3 as a trio, which drew massive attention and criticism. Many viewers, along with some celebrities, slammed the show’s makers for showcasing a polygamous relationship, calling it a bad influence on society, Amid the backlash, Payal reportedly considered divorcing Armaan, but later decided against it. However, with the up-to-date legal developments, that separation is immediately happening.
How It All Started
Armaan married Payal in 2011, and they had a son together named Chirayu. Interestingly, Armaan once shared that he and Payal eloped and married just seven days after meeting. In 2018, without divorcing Payal, Armaan married Kritika, his best friend, whom he met at Chirayu’s birthday rave. Though there were issues, the trio eventually decided to live as one family. In 2023, the family grew further when Payal gave birth to twins, and Kritika welcomed a baby boy, Zaid.
Allegations of a Fourth Marriage?
Things got even more complicated last year when rumours surfaced that Armaan may have married a fourth time, to a woman named Laksh, who works as a caretaker for his children. These rumours began when people noticed Laksh celebrating Karwa Chauth with “Sandeep” (Armaan’s real name) written in mehendi on her hands.
Payal later clarified that Laksh had a court marriage, but Laksh refused to leave Armaan’s home, claiming it as her own. This only added more fuel to the rumours of a fourth marriage.
