Ritu Rathee Viral Video: Fans of YouTubers Gaurav Taneja, who is more popular by the name Flying Beast, woke up to a cryptic social media post a few days ago, where the former pilot was seen addressing the separation rumours with his wife Ritu Rathee. In the post, the YouTuber mostly spoke on how he is ready to ‘receive negativity’ for the sake of his kids and wife. He then went on to urge his fans to not ‘expect an explanation’ over the rumours. The matter was hardly settled, when just after two days, Taneja’s wife finally broke silence over the drama and shared a video on the same. The video which went with the caption ‘reality’, was mostly about how she was fed up with public ‘interfering’ in her personal life. Rathee repeatedly reminded people not to take her as some ‘abla nari (helpless woman)’, and clarified that she ‘doesn’t need support from the public’.
She also somewhat defended her husband and spoke of knowing him ‘better than the rest’. She was also heard asking people to back off and urged them to not tell her what to do. All in all, the couple asked fans to give them privacy, as the matter was not for the public to dissect.
For those unaware, Taneja is a popular YouTuber, who has multiple YouTube channels and a pretty public life up until the 'divorce rumours'. The YouTuber is also a former pilot, where he worked for AirAsia. He and Rathee reportedly got married in 2016. As soon as Rathee’s clip was shared online, it went viral and many came forward to share their 2 cents.
Some speculated that YouTuber Flying Beast cheated on his wife, resulting in the 'separation', while some chastised him for ‘ruining’ his family. Many also expressed sympathies towards Ritu, while the rest mocked the couple for wanting to keep their matters ‘private’, despite getting ‘fame’ out of ‘sharing their lives on social media’.
Amid all the drama, a few also dug out an old video of the YouTuber, where he was blamed for ‘justifying cheating’ during his wife’s pregnancy. In the clip, he was seen talking about his wife not being able to give him ‘time’ after her pregnancy, as most of her efforts went into resting and taking care of the kid.
Coming to Ritu’s recent video, the clip was shared on Ritu Rathee’s official Instagram account, with the caption, “Diviorve Reality Check!”
Watch the viral video:
Taking to his social media, this was the YouTuber's post, “I will remain quiet for my kids and the mother of my child. Ready to live with all the negativity and hate for my entire life. Please don’t expect any public explanation. Please stop making any assumptions. Men are made villains very fast. We don’t cry, we talk less and express less. Some of us are hardwired like that. Social media is not a place to discuss family matters. I have nothing to say. Hopefully, everything will be sorted soon.”
“PS- honestly, I don’t feel like posting anything. But I have some commitments to fulfill and this is my work. I would be posting some already-shot content can’t let others suffer due to my personal issues. So please excuse me for that,” the post further read.
