Samantha Ruth Prabhu is quite candid about her divorce from Naga Chaitanya and has revealed how she came out of that disappointing phase of her life. However, some time ago, the diva made headlines for redesigning her wedding gown, leading everyone to believe that it was some kind of revenge move against her ex-husband. And now, the actress has finally clarified this.
While speaking with Galatta, Samantha Ruth Prabhu openly admitted that she was separated and divorced and the end of her marriage was not like a fairy tale. However, she stressed that this would never mean that she would stop living her life and just cry about it.
However, having said that, there was no vendetta against her ex-husband in her decision to exchange her wedding gown for a new garment.
Samantha said, “It hurt in the beginning. It was really hurtful, and then I decided to turn it around. I will own it. Yes, I am separated. I am divorced. Things did not turn out like a fairy tale. But that doesn’t mean I should sit in a corner, cry about it and never muster the courage to live again. So it wasn’t any kind of revenge or anything.
The Kushi actress has truly proved to the world that she is much stronger than what people mistake her for. Despite many challenges, the diva has kept her head held high.
During another segment of her interview with Galata, Samantha talked about her divorce and also spoke with many other women who go through a lot of the stigma associated with it.
The actress painstakingly revealed how people have often used derogatory terms like ‘secondhand’, ‘ruined life’ and ‘used’ to judge and make fun of her, as if her life was completely different after the divorce. Is tantamount to failure.
For those unaware, Samantha and Naga Chaitanya got married in 2017. Shortly after, in 2021, the couple announced they were going their separate ways, and were divorced within a year.
Fast forward to now, Naga Chaitanya is all set to get married for the second time with actress Shobhita Dhulipala. Their wedding will take place on 4 December 2024 at Annapurna Studio in Hyderabad.
