Celina Jaitly shares emotional video at son's grave, alleges separation from children amid divorce battle
PTC Web Desk: Actor Celina Jaitly has opened up about a deeply painful phase in her personal life, claiming she has been separated from her children during an ongoing divorce case with her husband, Peter Haag.
In a long social media post, Celina shared a video where she is seen visiting the grave of her late son Shamsher. The actor is visibly emotional in the clip, breaking down as she cleans the grave. She said she had no choice but to make the video public to express her pain as a mother.
Celina revealed that she had travelled to Austria for a divorce hearing, hoping to meet her children. However, she alleged that despite court assurances, her children were moved to an undisclosed location and not brought back to her. She said she has currently been denied communication with her three surviving children.
Calling the past few weeks the “most difficult” of her life, Celina spoke about her journey as a wife and mother. She said she left her career and home in India and moved across countries like Dubai, Singapore and Austria to support her husband’s work. She also claimed she raised her children largely on her own while standing by her husband’s ambitions.
The actor further alleged that during the separation process, she faced unreasonable demands related to her premarital assets. She claimed that despite seeking an amicable settlement, her efforts were not met positively.
Celina also accused interference in her relationship with her children. She alleged that there has been an attempt to influence them against her and restrict regular communication.
Sharing how the divorce process began, Celina said she was unexpectedly served divorce papers in September last year under the pretext of collecting an anniversary gift.
Celina and Peter married in 2010 and are parents to four sons, including two sets of twins. One of their sons, Shamsher, passed away in 2017 due to a heart condition.
The actor ended her note by saying she is still trying to prioritise her children’s well-being and is seeking dignity and fairness during the separation.
