Boxer Amir Khan has been hit with a fresh blow by the BBC after more claims he has cheated on wife Faryal Makhdoom
Amir Khan’s BBC reality show has reportedly been put on hold after his separation from his wife Faryal Makhdoom amid claims he sexted another woman.
EmmanuelsBlog earlier reported that Amir, 36, and his wife Faryal, 32, have separated and are said to be splitting their time between their homes in Dubai and the UK while Faryal decides whether she wants to end their 10-year marriage.
In the wake of the revelations, The Sun claims that the BBC is not in the process of making another series of Meet The Khans: Big In Bolton.
The third series aired in January but talks on whether to reprise it have stalled, they report. A source told the DailyMail: ‘Amir and Faryal were a hit on the BBC with their reality show.
‘At the start of the year, it was unclear whether they would be getting a fourth series but discussions were ongoing. Now, in the wake of the cheating allegations, it is completely on ice.
‘They are waiting to see how this all pans out before a decision is made on the future of it.’
In an Instagram post on Friday night, Faryal said: ‘Fall in love with someone who doesn’t make you think love is hard.’
She then re-posted a poem called July by Heba Nasar to her story. It reads: ‘Just like a book, I hope the second half writes a perfect tale where all loose ends find their place.’
It comes as Amir has jetted back to London from Dubai after being caught sexting another woman.
The new woman has claimed she had an affair with the boxer over four months – which only ended when his wife Faryal threatened to ‘name and shame’ her.
The unnamed woman has revealed that the champion fighter admitted his marriage was ‘on the rocks’ and said that she slept with him this year after he demanded ‘no holds barred’ sex.
The woman reportedly said she met with Amir on several occasions, but that their fling ended when she received a call from his furious wife
