LONDON: Imran Khan's ex-wife Jemima Khan on Tuesday congratulated via Twitter the PTI leader on, "this new phase of his life," alluding to his reported marriage to broadcast journalist Reham Khan.

Imran Khan and Jemima had tied the knot in 1995 and stayed together for nine years, during which they had two sons together.

The marriage was described as ‘tough’, ending in a divorce after nine years in June 2004 as Jemima was allegedly unable to adapt to Pakistani culture.

Earlier today, the former cricketer hinted that an official announcement is in the offing.
