Armaan Malik Sparks Divorce Rumors Amid First Wife Payal’s Fourth Pregnancy

Popular YouTuber and Bigg Boss OTT 3 contestant, Armaan Malik, is once again in the spotlight due to rumors surrounding his personal life. Known for his controversial vlogs and unconventional family structure, including two wives, Payal and Kritika Malik, Armaan has been the subject of public intrigue following the birth of his first wife’s fourth child on March 24, 2026 — his fifth child overall. This milestone has reignited speculation about the state of his marriage.

Payal Malik described her fourth child as a “miracle baby.” She conceived naturally for the first time in 15 years, after previously undergoing multiple unsuccessful IVF procedures. The couple had struggled with infertility for over a decade, and Payal had only one functional fallopian tube. Both mother and newborn are reported to be in perfect health.

Divorce rumors surrounding Armaan and Payal had emerged months before the child’s birth. About seven months prior, Armaan, Payal, and Kritika were summoned by the Patiala District Court regarding a petition alleging that he had not two, but four marriages. Reports in August 2025 indicated that a High Court had ordered Armaan to divorce one wife to comply with the Hindu Marriage Act. Speculation intensified in September 2025, suggesting that he might separate from Payal and continue his married life with Kritika, despite Payal being pregnant at the time.

The Malik family also faced criticism and trolling during their appearance on Bigg Boss OTT 3 due to their polygamous lifestyle. Payal, in a vlog, admitted considering separation from Armaan because of the mental toll caused by online harassment. However, the divorce rumors were later dispelled when Armaan, Payal, and Kritika appeared together in a maternity photoshoot, showing a united front.

Armaan Malik married Payal in 2011, and the couple welcomed their first son, Chirayu (Chiku), in May 2016. In 2018, he married Kritika Malik, Payal’s best friend, after a brief six-day courtship. Initially, Payal struggled to accept the second marriage, leading to a period of separation and emotional distress. Over time, she came to accept Kritika as part of the family for the sake of their son Chirayu.

Today, the Malik family comprises five children: Chirayu, twins Ayan (son) and Tuba (daughter), a newborn baby girl with Payal, and Zaid, Kritika and Armaan’s child born in April 2023. The family appears harmonious, with both wives sharing household and childcare responsibilities, portraying a cordial and cooperative dynamic in their vlogs.
