Modi’s post led to a lot of speculation about the two being married, but he cleared the air in a subsequent tweet, saying that the two weren’t married, but were dating each other. “Just for clarity. Not married – just dating each other. That too it will happen one day,” he wrote. The couple was recently vacationing in the Maldives and Sardinia, chasing beautiful sunsets and spending quality time together.
The news comes months after the former beauty queen announced her split with ex-boyfriend Rohman Shawl in an Instagram post. “We began as friends, we remain friends! The relationship was long over… The love remains,” she wrote on her social media back in December 2021.
However, Sushmita Sen and Rohman Shawl have continued to maintain a cordial relationship, with the model also joining in planning a surprise for her with her daughters Renee and Alisah to celebrate 28 years of her being crowned Miss Universe. Lalit Modi, on the other hand, was married to Minal Modi until her death due to cancer.
