Shubhangi Atre Reveals REAL REASON For Her Divorce After 17 Years, 'After Marriage Got To Know..'

Famous television actress, Shubhangi Atre, has been through a lot in her personal life. But when she decided to end her seventeen-year-long marriage, she received a lot of judgments and trolling. People thought her success led her to make the decision. After a dignified silence, Shubhangi Atre opened up about the reason behind her divorce and how she found out about her husband, Piyush's, alcohol addiction in 2018. 

Subhangi Atre blamed her late ex-husband, Piyush Poorey's alcoholism, which led to their divorce

Recently, in an interview with Siddharth Kannan, Shubhangi talked about her divorce and how it was her ex-husband, Piyush Poorey's, addiction to alcohol, which worsened over the course of their marriage. Shubhangi had known Piyush since her school days. They were dating each other, and when Shubhangi got an arranged marriage proposal, she introduced her family to Piyush and got married. 

Shubhangi revealed that it was after their marriage that she found out about Piyush's alcohol addiction. While she knew about it, she stayed in the marriage, thinking that with time and responsibilities, things would change. Shubhangi tried her best to make her marriage work. She said:

"I tried to make the marriage work. We stayed together for 17 years."

Shubhangi added that she was busy working in her long shooting hours, but it was her daughter, Ashi, who informed her about Piyush's drinking habits. She told her about his crankiness after getting drunk, but it was the pandemic which opened her eyes as she was home and saw it all. She was quoted as saying:

"Since I was busy working, I didn't realise when the situation got worse. My daughter, Ashi, would tell me about his drinking habits and that he would get cranky after drinking. The eye-opening moment was during the Covid time when I stayed at home and saw it myself."

Shubhangi added that in 2018, Piyush started taking steroids for his hair transplant treatment and kept consuming alcohol with it. His health worsened, and he was hospitalised. Despite the doctors' warnings, he didn't change his lifestyle. Shubhangi took all measures from family discussions to rehab, but then in November 2020, she decided to part ways as it was affecting her mentally. She said:

"After that, I tried for two years from rehab to family discussions. I tried to convince him, but then in November 2020, I decided to separate. It was affecting me mentally. Even after divorce, I continued supporting him financially but he continued drinking. He didn't stop."

Talking about her last conversation, Shubhangi revealed that she told Piyush to get better. She added that she found out that he had a multiple-organ failure, and alcohol was the culprit.

Shubhangi and Piyush tied the knot in 2003, and within a few years, they welcomed their daughter, Ashi. However, her ex-husband, Piyush, challenged the societal notion by giving up on his job for the dream of turning his wife, Shubhangi, into a famous celebrity. He had given up on his high-paying job to be a stay-at-home father.
