Why Anushka Sharma And Virat Kohli Decided to have their child in London
Anushka and Virat flew to London weeks before Akaay was born. The report says that Anushka faced some pregnancy issues. Hence they wanted privacy. Also to stay away from the media, they chose to go to London. Although it is not appropriate to judge anyone’s health. But the sole purpose of flying to London was to keep things private and far away from the media.
Another reason is that Anushka and Virat can shift to the UK soon or use it as their second home. Virat holds a big name as an Indian cricketer. Currently, he is 35 and has only a few years left in his career. On the other side, Anushka hasn’t been acting in movies for over five years and has been focusing on producing, with just one film in progress. There are speculations that the couple wants to spend time with family. And go easy with work possibly making London their second home.
This time during her second pregnancy Anushka kept a low profile. And made sure not to make a public announcement confirming the news. However, she was spotted watching World Cup matches in November 2023 with her baby bump. Ahead of the announcement, Kohli also decided not to be a part of the ongoing Test series against England. He Initially took leave for ‘personal reasons’ for the first two Tests and then decided not to participate in the remaining three Tests.
