Natasa Stankovic has put to rest the swirling rumours about her relationship with cricketer Hardik Pandya. Recently, Natasa posted a picture of her adorable pooch, Baby Rover, wearing a T-shirt with a panda on it and cleverly captioned it, "Baby Rover Pand(Y)a." This playful post, featuring her dog's surname as Pandya seems to be her way of shutting down any speculation about a rift within the Pandya family.
Natasa and Hardik, who got married in May 2020, share a 3-year-old son named Agastya Pandya. Despite recent gossip suggesting trouble in their marriage, this latest post hints that all is well between them.

The rumours began when Natasa removed ‘Pandya’ from her Instagram handle and stopped posting about Hardik on her social media. A Reddit post titled “Natasa and Hardik separated?” gained traction, with users noting their lack of appearances on each other’s social media and Natasa’s absence from IPL 2024 matches. The Reddit user observed, "Earlier, Natasa used to have Natasa Stankovic Pandya on her Instagram, but now she has completely removed his name."
Adding fuel to the fire, a report by the Bombay Times claimed that Hardik and Natasa had been facing marital issues for the past six months. The source mentioned that tension had been brewing in their marriage and hinted at a possible separation, although they clarified that stories about alimony and PR stunts were speculative and exaggerated.
However, Natasa’s recent actions, including unarchiving her wedding pictures and sharing the cute photo of Baby Rover, suggest that the couple is still very much together. Hardik has also been seen sharing pictures of their pooch on his social media.
Despite the ongoing speculation, Natasa's post serves as a subtle yet strong statement that things might not be as bleak as the rumours suggest.
