Javeria Abbasi reveals Shamoon Abbasi is not only her ex but step brother as well

Pakistani actor, Javeria Abbasi appeared on a talk show and revealed why she chose to marry Shamoon Abbasi who happens to be her step brother as well.

The host explained, “Javeria's mother and Shamoon's father got married. Javeria and Shamoon were step-siblings.”

To which Abbasi responded, “People get really confused with this story. So I don't want to create any confusion. The rest of our siblings were from our mother and father. That's why people get really confused whether Anoushey Abbasi is my sister or Shamoon's. She's both of our sister.”

The actor revealed why she got married to Shamoon Abbasi, she said, “He was the first man so I thought I'd just hold onto him. But that's a big exaggeration. However, the idea was to bring the whole family together. We would live together, share a house, so it was a good idea and it worked.”

She added, “I had to come back to the same house so rukhsati happened from my mamoo's.”

Javeria and Shamoon tied the knot at a very young age and later divorced.

Javeria also shared why her marriage with Shamoon ended, she said, “Sometimes, things just do not work out. You feel as you mature, you could have done better. I was giving an interview recently where I made a point to share how women aren't helpless. We aren't helpless, at least I am not. If we are not in a relationship, that doesn't mean we don't have a say.”
