Tej Pratap Yadav Opens Up on Failed Marriage, Cites Infidelity

Tej Pratap Yadav has spoken publicly about the collapse of his first marriage, attributing the breakdown to infidelity and mounting personal tensions. In an appearance on the web series Rise and Fall 2, the Bihar-based political figure discussed his separation from Aishwarya Rai, stating that he found evidence of his wife engaging in communications with another man.

Yadav revealed that the marriage itself had been contracted under considerable pressure, a factor he believes contributed to its eventual failure. He cited frequent quarrels and the discovery of his then-wife's communications as key issues that led to the dissolution of their union.

The disclosure comes as Tej Pratap, son of Rashtriya Janata Dal supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav, continues to maintain a public presence in Bihar's political landscape. The personal revelations provide rare insight into the private difficulties faced by members of prominent political families in the state.

Tej Pratap has since moved forward with his life following the marital separation, though details regarding formal divorce proceedings remain limited. The interview marks one of his most candid discussions regarding the matrimonial breakdown to date.
