Actress Shweta Tiwari recently opened up about her two broken marriages in an interview where she candidly spoke about the "wrong men" she chose in her life, her abusive marriages with Raja Chaudhary and Abhinav Kohli, and how her children have been going through the trauma of her failed relationships with along with her "strong and smiling".
Shweta was married to Raja Chaudhary and has a daughter, Palak, from the relationship. She has a younger son, Reyansh, born in 2016, from her second marriage with Abhinav Kohli.
Shweta has accused both Raja and Abhinav of being abusive husbands. While her divorce with Raja came through, currently, she estranged from Abhinav.
In her interview with Bollywood Bubble, speaking about how her mother reacted when she disclosed that she wanted to get married to Raja when she was just 19 years old, Shweta said, "My mother kept saying you are too young to get married...She had said the guy who wants to get married even before he starts earning, will never earn in his life, so don't do that. Let him settle down. Let him make himself capable so that he can take care of you. But I said, 'Why? I am there, I will earn' That time you don't understand when you are 19 years old. You don't understand that you need a partner, you aren't adopting a kid!"
She added, "When a girl becomes independent, they have everything that they want. They earn enough to take care of themselves and the people around them. What they look for is emotional support. What I was looking for in my partners was emotional support. And when you emotionally start being dependent on someone, they take you for granted."
Opening up about her first marriage Shweta said, "I was the first one in my family to do a love marriage, that too inter-caste. And we also ran away and got married. I was separated at 27. Over time, I realised that to see an abusive father, a drunk father every day for a child, was worrying. I realised, being a single parent was better than my child having to see an abusive husband and father, to see us fighting each day of our lives."
Shweta added that people in her apartment ask her children if their father's come to meet them, only for the sake of gossip. She also mentioned how people talk behind her back about her marrying for the third time. Shweta said that she needn't ask anyone if she decided to do so, because it's her decision to make!
Speaking about how her kids have been going through the trauma of her failed relationships, Shweta told the portal, "Both my kids don't show me they are sad. She (Palak) saw me getting beaten up. She saw women coming home. She was 6 years old when I decided to break off my marriage. She has seen the trauma, police coming to my home, me taking her to the police station with her. My four-year-old son also knows about police and judges. It is not safe, but it is not only because of me. For a child to be knowing all this at this age is not healthy but I am not able to do anything about it because I have no way out. I am not able to get them out of this mess. to lead a happy life I have no other option than go to the police or the court."
"They are in this mess because of me, because I chose wrong people, wrong men, That was my fault. But they (Palak and Reyansh) are going through this with me, strong and smiling. I never tell them don't miss your father or don't talk to them. But they don't. They are scared of this trauma. They want to be happy. And I don't blame them for it," she concluded.
