    Amir Khan’s wife Faryal Makhdoom parties WITHOUT her wedding ring after sexting ‘split’ from boxer husband

    AMIR Khan’s wife Faryal Makhdoom was spotted partying without her wedding ring after allegedly splitting from her boxer husband. The mum-of-one, 32, danced the night away on Saturday with pals after she was caught up in a sexting scandal which saw hubby Khan meet a woman for hotel sex over a period of four months.

    The Sun on Sunday revealed Khan, 36, had demanded “no holds bar” sex from the woman earlier this year before the fling escalated.
    It’s understood Faryal found out about the betrayal before calling the woman, who wants to remain anonymous, and threatened to out her.
    A source said Faryal is now deciding “whether or not to walk away from the marriage”.
    And last night, donning a green top with feathered sleeves, she posed for Instagram selfies.

    Not shying away from getting her left hand in the pics, Faryal happily showed her followers she was going out without her ring.
    It comes as Khan made his first appearance last night since the cheating allegations broke.
    He was spotted on TNT Sports ahead of the Terence Crawford and Errol Spence Jr fight.
    The former boxing champ was also without his wedding ring amid rumours the couple are now living apart.

    Khan sat on the panel of presenters and also discussed a potential return to the sport – ignoring the recent bombshell.
    In an interview with The Sun on Sunday, the woman involved in the sex scandal said that Khan told her his marriage was “on the rocks”.
    Khan had messaged the woman on Instagram in February after she viewed his profile.
    She said: “I got a notification that I had a message from Amir Khan. I was shocked and, at first, thought it was a joke but he asked me for my number and then started messaging me on WhatsApp.
    “He was intense straight away and spoke about his marriage problems. I thought he was very confident.”
    In one text, Khan said: “Things were a little tough [at the moment] with what we going through.”
    The woman said: “He then rang me and told me he was in an unhappy marriage — and it was more of a business arrangement.”
    The next day, Khan sent a number of selfies from a Pakistan work trip and asked her to send him some “naughty pictures”.
    He wrote: “I need to let me have u for a day locked up with me. Make it dirty n naughty. No holds bar. Everything goes. U know it’s been 4 months for me. No sex.”
    A fortnight later, the couple met up at a ­restaurant in Wembley, North West London, where Khan was hanging out with pals.
    She said: “I went to meet him for the first time and he was with friends.
    “We just chatted and it seemed normal to them he was meeting a woman that wasn’t his wife, which I found surprising.
    “Nothing happened but then the next day he asked me to drive to visit him in Manchester.”
    On March 7, the woman travelled from London to a plush hotel in Manchester where she checked in under the company name “Khan Operations”.
    She said: “It was quite brazen that I was checking in under his name.
    “We went out to dinner and then he had to go back to his friend’s house to FaceTime Faryal so she would think he was staying there while I waited at the hotel. We had a night of passion.”
    The following week, the woman claims Khan begged her to visit him at a hotel in London, where he was staying during a trial after he was robbed of his £72,000 watch in April 2022.
    She said: “He messaged me, pleading me to get to his hotel room at 3am. I ended up driving there later and stayed four hours.”
    She added: “Things started to get serious. He’d message he loved me and even asked me to be his girlfriend.”
    Just days later, Khan messaged: “Me and my wife are having big problems. On camera looks okay . . . I’m done.”
    But in May, he turned on a Whats-App function which means texts are deleted automatically after 24 hours.
    She said: “I asked him to turn it off as I felt insulted — like I was his dirty little secret.
    “He told me over the phone he’d been kicked out as Faryal had caught him cheating but he said it was an old video on his phone.”
    She and Khan met up one more time before the relationship swiftly ended.
    SEX SCANDAL
    On June 5, the woman claims she received a phone call from him to warn her that his wife had found her number on his phone and blocked her.
    She said: “He was flying back to Dubai without her and said he’d call me when he got there.”
    The woman then received a second call at midnight — but this time from Faryal, adding: “She said she wanted to know what was going on and Amir had told her I was a fan who was harassing him.
    “I put the phone down on her and she sent me a text message.”
    Faryal’s text to the woman, seen by The Sun on Sunday, read: “I know you’re a very bad liar and I can see right through your bs.
    “So next time stop stuttering and get your story straight.
    “Trying to protect a man who blocked you and doesn’t rate you. I have recorded the whole call and have proof of your harassment.
    “I don’t want to name and shame you . . . if I was you I wouldn’t even attempt to contact him.”
    The woman said: “I was in shock. There was no harassment as proven by the messages. I wasn’t allowed to contact Amir first.”
    On June 8, Khan sent a text saying: “She’s back today. I will message you soon.” The woman said: “He then went to the Maldives and I didn’t hear from him.
    “On June 15, I got a missed voice call and a voice note saying he’d call me when he can and a few days later he changed his number.”
    She added: “It made me feel like s***. He got what he wanted and then just dropped me.
    “I always knew he was married. It’s not about that. It’s the lack of respect and the sudden shift in behaviour. Faryal’s message was horrible too. It scared me.
    “I then found out that he had been sexting other women at the same time he was having sex with me — which I find vile.”
    The couple are now splitting their time between their homes in Dubai and the UK.
    Khan recently jetted back to London alone as he shared snaps onboard an Emirates flight.

    Khan posted the selfies, which show him boarding an Emirates flight to the UK on his Instagram.
    They show the 58-year-old relaxing in first class with a blanket and pillow.
    It comes after The Sun revealed how Amir had begged bridal model Sumaira to send him revealing pictures.
    The boxer also tried to meet up with the 25-year-old after first contacting her in May to compliment her tattoos.
    He told her in one message: “look good on g string” and suggested she had a boob job.
    Weeks later Khan — who married Faryal in 2013 — posted a snap online of himself with his US model wife and daughters, saying: “10 years later.”
    He later revealed he was willing to have therapy to stop him sexting other women.
    Khan also issued his wife an apology after she asked him, “If you have a diamond at home, why do you want to mess around with rocks and stones?”

    The I’m a Celebrity star also whisked Faryal off on a romantic trip to Mykonos in the wake of the scandal.
    She later released a bombshell statement on Instagram slamming Sumaira.
    Faryal said she was refusing to “play out my marriage publicly” but had released a statement “after a long week of accusations, slander and harassment”.
    She has also claimed she has been victim of a “hate campaign” and accused a representative of Sumaira of trying to “tarnish” her reputation.
    And Faryal addressed how she has “bared the brunt of many scandals and embarrassing events”.
    She said: “I am being criticised for being Amir’s wife, for still staying with him knowing his ‘track record’.
    “This is the man I am married too and have three young children with. The whole world is aware of his track record, his reputation precedes him, why would you as a single woman want to engage in a conversation with him at all?’
    “My focus is my children and shielding them from all that is happening. I am simply a mother trying to do what’s best for her children and that is all I am willing to pour my energy into.”
    Amir and Faryal wed in a £1million bash at New York’s Waldorf Astoria Hotel in 2013.
    In 2014, they welcomed their first child, daughter Lamaisah, now nine.
    They also have daughter Alayna, five, and three-year-old son Muhammad.
    The couple previously split in 2017 after their marriage continued to be dogged by cheating rumours.
    At the time, Faryal slammed the former light-welterweight world champion for repeatedly sleeping with other women.
    Khan hit back by claiming his wife had slept with Anthony Joshua, which the boxer has always denied.

    AMIR Khan’s marriage is on the rocks after wife Faryal Makhdoom moved out of the family home following his latest ‘cheating’ scandal.The former world champion boxer, 36, apologised and offered to get counselling after we revealed he text a model begging for saucy pictures.

    In an exclusive interview, he told us: “I am willing to go to ­therapy to stop me sending texts to women who aren’t my wife.
    “I think nowadays with mental health issues, any help goes a long way. It’s definitely something I would do. Things like that do help, so maybe it’s something to think about.”
    But it looks like enough is finally enough for Faryal, 31, who has stuck by her man’s side through multiple public humiliations.
    She confronted him at their home in Dubai earlier this month when she saw our story about Amir begging bridal model Sumaira, 25, for racy pictures and trying to meet up with her.

    He approached Sumaira online in May in the run-up to his and Faryal’s 10th wedding anniversary, initially complimenting her on her tattoos before things took a raunchier turn.
    Amir and Faryal were introduced through a mutual friend, and tied the knot in a glamorous 1000-guest ceremony at New York’s Waldorf Astoria Hotel in 2013.
    Their daughter, Lamisah, was born the following year.
    But their romance was rocked after a long-rumoured sex tape of Amir was was leaked online.

    The X-rated clip shows him in just a T-shirt and boxer shorts performing a sex act on himself while in conversation with a female model on the video call service Skype.
    It is believed to have been made just weeks after the lavish wedding.
    Faryal was said to be “absolutely disgusted” by the video — which was published on a major US porn website.
    The pair appeared side-by-side to put on a united front during an appearance on ITV’s This Morning.
    Amir said on the show: “I love my wife, and I love my family. The marriage is brilliant, it’s going really well. Everything is fine between with us.”
    While Faryal added: “It’s just the past that’s coming back to try and bring us down.
    “But our focus is now the next fight.”
    In 2015, reality show star Lateysha Grace claimed she was offered £2,000 by Amir for a foursome in Miami.
    The Sun also revealed how he spent the night with former escort Christie Lee Hoyle while his wife was pregnant in 2013.
    Around the same time he allegedly bombarded Clair Nuttall with lewd texts urging her to perform sex acts on him and begging for a threesome.
    Faryal confronted Clair and French lingerie model Eglantine-Flore Aguilar over their alleged trysts.
    Amir has also been linked with a string of other women, including model Natalie Fox and Playboy star Carla Howe.
    In September last year, Amir spoke of his regret at the way he publicly, and falsely, accused heavyweight Anthony Joshua of having an affair with Faryal.
    Speaking about the incident on Gary Neville’s and Sky Bet’s The Overlap, he confessed: “I had the problem with Anthony Joshua, which I feel really bad for because at the end of the day I put him in the firing line for no reason.
    “I mean he was a friend of mine and since then we’ve never spoken. So I lost a good friend through that as well.”
    Cheating allegations aside, Amir and Faryal’s marriage has also been blighted by a bitter family feud.
    The row started when Faryal posted a “naked” selfie on her Instagram – and Amir’s Muslim parents were allegedly disappointed to see their daughter-in-law wearing very little clothing.
    Faryal then took to Snapchat to blast her in-laws, claiming that she was being abused by them.
    She accused her mother-in-law, Falak Khan, of trying to break the couple up when she was pregnant with their child: “When you force your son to divorce his wife, When she’s nine months pregnant!!!
    “And your son doesn’t … and he sticks besides his wife. He’s called a p***y!???
    “Ok, I’m guessing Islam teaches us to get married and divorce our wives and treat them bad???”
    That was followed by Amir’s father Sajjad Khan branding her “very evil” and hinting divorce could be on the cards for the couple.
    “She is trying to come between us, she is trying to break up the very close relationship we have with Amir. She is a very evil woman,” he said, according to the Daily Star.
    “I have given and taken with her. We all have. All she wants is the limelight.”
    In response, Faryal’s own parents, Shaukat and Zia Makhdoom, sent an impassioned plea to their son-in-law not to start divorce proceedings.
    “We have hearts, hearts that are broken when we hear such things. We are living in fear that at any moment our daughter will get divorced,” said Faryal’s mother.
    “Please accept the girl as your own daughter. And please don’t say such a word to any girl, to anyone’s daughter.

    “We are parents too. We are living in fear that at any moment our daughter will get divorced. May they always live happily.”
    The vicious feud had caused Amir to lose contact with his family.
