Indian cricket superstar Virat Kohli and his wife, actress Anushka Sharma, have decided to leave India.
Kohli’s former coach, Raj Kumar Sharma, has reportedly confirmed that the couple will soon relocate to London with their children, Vamika and Akay.
Sharma did not provide further details but only hinted that Kohli plans to move to London, soon after retirement to settle there.
The couple has been spotted in London in recent years.
Raj Kumar Sharma said, “Apart from cricket, Kohli is currently spending most of his time with his family.”
Kohli was in London after the T20 World Cup and returned for the series against Sri Lanka. He then went back to the UK, where he stayed until August.
At the start of the home season, Virat came back to India, staying here after the series against Bangladesh and the Test series against New Zealand, during which he celebrated his birthday with his fans.
Kohli is currently busy playing the Test series in Australia. If India reaches the final of the Champions Trophy, he will be part of the team. While it is unclear when his next visit to London will be, he is expected to travel to the UK in early 2025.
Virat Kohli loses cool in heated argument with Australian reporter
Indian batting maestro Virat Kohli had a heated exchange with the Australian media upon his arrival in Melbourne for the Boxing Day Test.
According to reports, Kohli confronted media personnel at the airport, believing that they were filming his family without permission. The former Indian captain made it clear that his family’s privacy must be respected, stating, “You just can’t film without asking me,” as per the report.
Channel 7 reporter Theo Doropoulos explained that the incident stemmed from a misunderstanding. Kohli reportedly became upset after spotting video cameras, assuming they were pointed toward his children. “It was upon seeing the waiting cameras that Kohli became a little heated over what is largely a misunderstanding when he thought the media was filming him with his children,” Doropoulos said.
The journalist and cameraperson later clarified to Kohli that they were not filming his family members. Kohli then shook hands with the Channel 7 cameraperson and walked away.
