Bollywood has often witnessed family disputes making their way into the public domain, but few have been as controversial as the long-running feud between actor Faissal Khan and his brother, superstar Aamir Khan. In a recent press conference held in Mumbai, Faissal once again voiced his grievances against the Khan family and made shocking revelations about Aamir’s personal life, including an alleged relationship with British journalist Jessica Hines.
Faissal Khan on Family Rift
Speaking to the media, Faissal Khan revealed that he has been estranged from his family since 2005. He claimed years of mistreatment forced him to cut all ties. “I have severed all relations with my family. They subjected me to immense harassment, and I decided to live life on my own terms. Since 2005, my journey has been extremely difficult,” he said.
Faissal further reminded the press that he fought a legal battle against his family over guardianship and personal independence, which he eventually won in 2016.
Allegations Against Aamir Khan
During his address, Faissal alleged that Aamir Khan, despite being married to Reena Dutta at the time, was romantically involved with British journalist Jessica Hines. According to him, the two were in a relationship, and Hines allegedly gave birth to Aamir’s child out of wedlock.
He claimed that this detail was part of a personal letter he had written years ago, where he outlined the private lives of his family members. “When I was upset, I wrote down the truth about every member of my family. Aamir was married to Reena but was also having an affair with Jessica Hines. They even had a child together,” Faissal stated.
The Jessica Hines Connection
Jessica Hines is a British journalist and writer, known for her book Looking for the Big B: Bollywood, Bachchan and Me. She first met Aamir Khan during her work in India, and rumors of their relationship have occasionally surfaced over the years. However, neither Aamir Khan nor Jessica Hines has ever publicly confirmed the existence of a child from their alleged relationship.
Industry Reaction and Silence from Aamir Khan
As of now, Aamir Khan has not responded to Faissal’s latest accusations. The actor, known for keeping his personal life private, has remained silent on past rumors surrounding Hines as well. Meanwhile, Faissal’s statements have reignited old discussions, stirring both media and fan curiosity.
Background of the Feud
The Khan family feud has persisted for years. Faissal has often expressed feeling sidelined within the family and in Bollywood. Once seen in films like Mela (2000), Faissal’s career never reached the heights of his brother Aamir’s. Over the years, he has publicly accused his family of not supporting him, while Aamir has largely chosen not to comment on the matter.
Conclusion
Faissal Khan’s recent remarks have once again placed Aamir Khan and Jessica Hines under the spotlight of controversy. While these remain unverified allegations, the claims have added a new chapter to the ongoing family discord. With Aamir Khan yet to issue any clarification, the controversy continues to draw significant attention in Bollywood circles and among fans.
