Sania Mirza has been through a difficult few years due to her personal life hitting a rough patch. The former tennis player had left her country and shifted to Dubai after she fell in love with Pakistani cricketer, Shoaib Malik. However, their love story came to a sad end when Shoaib Malik posted photos from his third marriage with Sana Javed. After this, Sania's father revealed how it was his daughter who had taken Khula (a term used in Islam when a woman initiates a divorce).
On November 6, 2024, Sania took to her Instagram handle and posted a video of her son, Izhaan's sixth birthday celebration. However, this year, things have been different for the little boy, as his father, Shoaib Malik, wasn't part of it. Sania has been working super hard to make her son a strong and gentle man. She hosted a grand football-themed birthday party.
Izhaan's grandparents were also in Dubai, and the entire Mirza family, along with their friends, enjoyed the bash. We also loved the football-themed cake, which looked yummy and aesthetically pleasing.
We loved Sania's outfit of the day, as she kept it casual with a white-hued t-shirt and a pair of jeans. On the other hand, the birthday boy wore a black t-shirt, and looked handsome. Sharing the video, Sania wrote:
"Boys, football and a birthday! The perfect birthday for little @izhaan.mirzamalik. Baby boy. Thank you @realmadridworlddubai @dubaiparksresorts for making this birthday so special. We couldn’t have asked for a more apt and fun place to host this special day."

A few days ago, Shoaib also shared a simple birthday celebration video of his son, Izhaan. The Pakistani cricketer took his son out for a dinner outing. The video started with Izhaan cutting his sports-themed cake. While Shoaib tried to kiss him, Izhaan was looking a bit uncomfortable.
However, one thing was sure that Shoaib Malik has been trying to show his presence in his son, Izhaan's life. Another thing to be noted was that Shoaib Malik's third wife, and Izhaan's step-mom, Sana Javed, didn't even post a single wish for the little one.

Sania and her family haven't talked about her divorce for long. However, after Shoaib announced his wedding to Sana Javed, the Mirza family spoke about the ex-couple's separation for the first time. On January 21, 2024, Sania's sister, Anam Mirza, took to her Instagram handle and shared a picture note on her behalf. She conveyed how Sania kept her personal life away from the media glares. She added that she separated from Shoaib a few months ago, and Sania wishes him well on his journey. Anam also said that it is a sensitive period of her life and requested privacy from fans.
What do you think about Sania's cute way of surprising her son, Izhaan with a football-themed birthday bash?
