Cricket superstar Virat Kohli delighted his massive fanbase by sharing a tender new photograph with his wife, Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma, on Saturday. The heartwarming image captures the couple in an intimate embrace, with Virat gently resting his cheek on Anushka’s forehead, both beaming for the camera.
The cricketer posted the picture on his Instagram with a simple yet evocative caption: “Been a minute.”
In the photograph, Virat can be seen sporting a stylish long blue coat, while Anushka radiates elegance in a grey sweater paired with a white top.
This candid snapshot immediately took the internet by storm, impressively accumulating over 5 million likes within an astounding two hours of its release on Instagram.
Recently, the beloved couple was spotted enjoying time out in London with their son, Akaay. Anushka was seen gracefully pushing Akaay’s stroller, dressed comfortably in maroon leggings, a matching sweatshirt, white sneakers, and a chic cap. Virat walked by her side, donning a brown sweatshirt, light blue jeans, white sneakers, and a beanie, showcasing their relaxed family dynamic.
Earlier in May, as Anushka celebrated her 37th birthday, Virat, known for his reserved social media presence, shared a deeply heartfelt message for his wife on Instagram:
“To my best friend, my life partner, my safe space, my best half, my everything. You’re the guiding light of all of our lives. We love you so much more everyday. Happy birthday my love ❤️❤️❤️”
Their beautiful love story blossomed in 2013 when they first met while collaborating on a commercial. After a four-year courtship, they exchanged vows in a picturesque ceremony in Italy in December 2017.
Anushka and Virat expanded their family with the arrival of their daughter, Vamika, in January 2021, and later welcomed their second child, son Akaay, on February 15, 2024.
