Express News quoted family sources as saying that differences between Haq and wife Faha Akmal, has led to the couple deciding to part ways. They added that Haq has couriered divorce papers to Akmal, who is currently residing in London.
The sources said that the marriage was dotted by “issues” ever since the couple had gotten married.
Akmal and Haq, who were engaged for six months prior to their wedding, could not get along well. The couple stayed together in Haq’s Lahore residence for some time following which Akmal had been living in London, with her parents. Haq used to visit Akmal.
The decision of separation was mutual.
Pakistan tennis star Haq had tied the knot with Akmal in December, 2011, at an elaborate ceremony in Lahore.

cool couple
Well thats normal now a days!
Sad but also glad they decided not to continue like millions do in Pakistan and live a miserable life.
Ohhhhhhhhhhhh wat a scam marriage..................why did they tie the knot in the first hand.....luv disappeared in just 6 months.............what a luv...........we need to define luv......
It will be very unfortunate if this news is true. I haven't been following their story but still they seemed to be a nice and loving couple.
I am sorry for both of them .
It is reported that trouble started between two when Assam played a Mixed double Match partnering a female to which his wife had objected.
Both should understand such future scenario before marriage.
all the money spent on lavish wedding gone to waste...could have donated to Edhi!
It's really a sad news.
sad
He could not last even for six months with his married wife, but could survive much longer with his counterpart on the court, the other guy who lasted with him, must be a thorough gentleman, flexible, adaptive and accommodating. why we lack these basic human qualities ? I think it is genes that makes all the difference. we need to exchange this commodity with more weddings with those who have sober and flexible and adaptive genes. this might work and we may last longer in every field.
Its not a personal matter. He is our Pakistani brother, we love, care and pray for him. He involved us in his wedding. Therefore he must tell us the reason, so that we (the public) learn from it. The reasons cited by Faha are all lies. Everyone knows that world class players travel all over the globe and they cannot give enough time to their spouses and families. Tell us the truth please?
same story of mine
For God sake ET its their personal matter, if this news is not true, they might part ways after what watching media or reading it.
First girls get attracted to glamour of 'Celeb hubby' , later they mourn over less attention due to busy schedule - all comes with the package ! especially if they are BBCDs , even more complicated ( as i naadha teetar , aadha batair) as far as confirmation, Asiam's sister has removed her face book profile picture as a mouning gesture. So no more confirmation required, its sad but I think it happened on right time. and all those asking that Media shouldnt be making hype out of it, excuse me but when you get you wedding covered from beauty parlour to joota chhupayee live on TV , then again divorce coverage of 'Celebs' comes wit hthe package , all over the world.... be it Meera, Tom Cruise or Kim Kardishian ....
who cares? its their personal matter.
Wish news agency give them little privacy, and news would come out when they officially announce anything.
I felt really sad, when i heard about it. But i guess, this is best possible thing they could come up with. Their decision. Wish them luck for the future.
Such news are always devastating for men and women who are stuck in unhappy marriages and dont have the courage to separate....
@Prof.Imtiaz Shaikh: That proves you are professor.
All humans including celebrities have faults and weaknesses. I hope this news is rumour and not fact.
If Aisam's father is denying the news then why Tribune is adamant on divorce.. What family sources more relaiable then Mr Eheteshamul Haq
Don't spread the news regarding any body who did not harm the country or any body. It may cause to injure the feelings and notoriety of concerned personalities.
I dont believe his father, Aisam plz tell us,,, plz tell us on camera, you are not leaving Faha.. Faha you too plz
Aisam's father just denied it live on TV (GeoNews)...
East and West , very hard to meet, girls in west are more demanding , time , attention , list can be long , girls at home are much humble , tennis playing is not easy as well. All the best for both of them .
hahahahaha!
It will be good if they try to reconcile.
Please chill!!!! Both of would marry again and be happy with someone else!!!!!
I wonder if Zardari or Rehman Malik took notice or not !!!!
very sad indeed!!
@Hamid: Dear what were you doing here at a celebrity page? just go at twitter and launch a campaign against the killings in Burma. Who barred you? It's easy to criticize others.....
It is realy sad and heartbreaking,why cant they have some patience and give some more time to settle down.
plz Asim, dont do it ,,Faha ji plz dont leave Asim..
Big deal ....
I guess it was their destiny.Whatever the case might be,one thing we can learn from this episode is that people should try to marry in their own locality and community. I don't know why Aisam went for this girl.He could have found way more educated and beautiful girl in Pakistan with same upbringing. Why need to import brides ....
Lastly,I have seen many comments stating that she was highly educated. Big whoop. She was an ordinary , average girl with an average set of academic credentials.You will find these types of girls all over in major cities of Pakistan.I don't know why people have to use this term i.e "highly educated" , whenever they see a women who have been to some university in the west. Inferiority complex ??
sad.
Yaar aisa nahi hona chahiye tha.. Nice to see them happy always as the both used to smile... I am really sad.
Sad, but better now than after having kids
@Hamid: ET always close its eyes on oppressed Muslims allover the world
Very Sad!! :(
Why not live coverage this time media ??
Shocking.. I can't believe that ... How cuttie cuttie couple was that... .... :(
All divorces are sad, and each have their own specific reasons. Here we had a sportsman and a highly educated woman from a highly respected and highly educated family. I suppose in the end it was a matter of two very different persons from two very different cultural backgrounds. Sad all the same. Wish both of them well.
Sad but expected news!
This is reported and killings in Burma is not. Shame
:( sad..
OMG this is just so sad :(
its good decision if they cant live together they shouldnt prolong this agony. Separation is better decision than cheating eachother.
It's sad and disgusting to see many girls on social media jumping in joy at the news of aisam's divorcing his wife.Women who follow around men blindly like submissive slaves are a big disgrace to their own gender.No matter what kind of person the man is,weak,low self-esteem women seem ever ready to humiliate themselves for the man.
Really shocking news! They seemed like a very nice couple with nothing but pure love for each other. It's easy to get married but hard to stay married sometimes. I wish them the very best in the future.
Shocking and sad! :(
thats sad
oh thats really sad.. on a lighter note.. i think Amir Khan should do the same in order get back on the boxing track.. :P..
It surely very sad news!
