Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma are undoubtedly one of the most famous celebrity couples. Apart from their beautiful bond, they are also parents to two beautiful children, Vamika and Akay. On Tuesday, Virat and Anushka were seen spending family time in the UK with their baby Akay. Away from the cricket field, the former Indian was seen holding his son Akaye in a piggy bank amid the lush greenery of a park with Anushka Sharma. The moment quickly went viral and fans appreciated the sweet moment. However, beyond the viral moment, Virat and Anushka have always been conscious when it comes to parenting their children. Here are seven parenting lessons to learn from them Virat and Anushka believe in shared parenting In an interview with Vogue, Anushka Sharma said, “Both mother and father should share equal responsibilities.” Talking about how she and Virat raise their children, she said that they do not see raising their children as separate duties of “mom and dad” but as a family activity. “For us, it is important that our child is brought up with a very balanced approach,” she said. Their approach reflects an important parenting lesson: Children benefit when both parents are visible, not just during special occasions, but in everyday moments. They do not pursue becoming the “perfect parent.” Speaking at an event, Anushka talked about how there is a lot of pressure to be “perfect parents” and admitted that she and Virat Kohli are not trying to project an image of perfection. This lesson is powerful: Children don’t need parents who never make mistakes; They need parents who are honest, emotionally available, and willing to learn. They believe in being present as a parent. For Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma, being parents is not just about providing the best opportunities for their children, it is also about being with them for the everyday moments. Parents being emotionally available helps children feel safe and loved. Listening, laughing and simply spending time together helps children feel safe and loved. Anushka Sharma is very particular about her children’s routine “My children, there are a lot of changes in their lives. We travel a lot, so if I maintain the same routine for them, I am giving them some sense of control in their lives. No matter where we are, we are teaching better at that time. So I think it really helps them control themselves better. So, there is a fixed meal time.” Anushka shared at an event. Virat Kohli believes in “Family Above all” Virat Kohli has often spoken about his belief of putting family above everything else, and it shows in his actions. Recently, a similar clip of Virat went viral when he was coming out of the airport and he had requested his father to give him some space. He said, “Hey beti ko ghar leke jaana hai yaar please (I want to take my daughter home).” This is a lesson for parents that giving top priority to family is of great benefit. They protect their children’s personality and childhood. One of the most notable aspects of Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma’s parenting has been their efforts to give their children a normal childhood away from the constant public attention. Despite being one of the most recognized faces in India, the couple has decided to keep Vamika and Akaye away from unnecessary limelight. He has often requested privacy around his children, allowing them to grow at their own pace. This teaches parents an important lesson, children are not an extension of their parents’ identity. They deserve their space, their experiences, and the freedom to know who they are. They create space for joy and play. The viral piggyback ride is a reminder that parenting also means having fun. Beyond responsibilities, children need parents who laugh with them, play with them and create happy memories. Small acts of kindness, holding a baby, playing outside, sharing a silly moment often become fond memories for children. Lesson: Childhood is not just about education, discipline or achievements. It is also about the feeling of joy, connection and love.
