Popular music director and singer Himesh Reshammiya has ended his 22-year long marriage to wife Komal. The couple, who announced their decision to end their marriage last year, was granted divorce by Bombay Court on the evening of June 6.

Speaking about the same, Himesh released a statement saying, “Sometimes in life mutual respect becomes most important and giving due respect to our relationship, Komal and me have amicably decided to part ways legally as husband and wife, and there is no problem whatsoever with this decision amongst us and our family as every member of the family have respected our decision. Komal is and will always remain a part of our family and I will always be a part of her family.”

Komal also shared that although they have decided to go their seperate ways, that the two have nothing but respect for each other. Citing “compatibility issues” as a reason for the separation, she said, “Himesh and I completely respect each other and are jointly going with this decision to part ways legally but mutual respect will always be there between us as I am a part of his family and will always be, and the same is with him towards my family. There are compatibility issues in our marriage. We are separate but we respect each other immensely. Nobody else should be dragged into this matter and nobody else is responsible for this. The reason for our marriage not working is only and only compatibility.”

The couple has a son together, Swayam. According to reports, Komal will be living in the same building where Himesh resides.
