Shahid and Mira Kapoor have been defining #CoupleGoals ever since they tied the knot in 2015. The couple now have two kids together, daughter Misha and son Zain, but their age gap is still a point of discussion whenever they give media interviews.
In a recent interview with a leading lifestyle magazine, Shahid opened up about his married life with Mira. He revealed that maintaining relationships is a struggle for him. He also added that wifey Mira feels that she is not a priority in his life. Wait, what?
The actor said, “No one should live in an illusion that everything’s set. When you believe everything is on autopilot, it all falls apart. You’ve got to work every day at everything. Whether it’s marriage, parenting, career or even your relationship with your parents. I struggle with all of them.”
“I struggle at maintaining my friendships. I’m terrible at maintaining long-distance relationships. I struggle at dividing my time between my wife, my children, and work. My wife feels she isn’t a priority. I feel guilty about not giving enough time to myself. Many a time I tell my family, ‘Guys, let me work also sometimes’,” he further added.
Shahid also spoke about how Mira had to deal with a lot of changes after their marriage, “She got married so young, had two kids and had to figure out how to deal with that when she was just stepping out of being a kid herself. She must have had her dreams and desires but she pushed those aside. That’s a lot to deal with. Also, the fact that we have an age difference, we are 13 years apart.”
Earlier, in an interview, Shahid had revealed Mira’s only condition for marrying him. The Kabir Singh actor had said, “The only condition she laid down for me was that when we get married, I will not have coloured hair. She made me promise that when we marry I would sport my normal hair colour. She warned me not to wear my hair red on our marriage day. When I married her a month later, I made sure I behaved myself and looked like a decent groom. I must confess that I was tempted to marry with red hair. I thought that my kids would see my wedding album and say – ‘Our dad was cool. He was so into his work.’ But, now I’m domesticated and I listen to everything Mira says.”
Now, if this isn’t #HubbyGoals, we don’t know what is!
