Natasa Stankovic has opened up about embracing change following her recent separation from cricketer Hardik Pandya. The dancer-model, who recently left for Serbia with her son Agastya, has been candid about her thoughts on social media, particularly amidst the negative reactions surrounding her split.
On Tuesday afternoon, Natasa took to her Instagram Stories to share a reflective message about moving forward. Posting a selfie with a serene smile, she wrote, “When you surrender everything to God that’s when you get a new name. You are not who you were but who God says you are” accompanied by a red heart emoji.
Natasa, who frequently shares glimpses of her daily life on Instagram, recently celebrated Agastya’s birthday with a Hot Wheels-themed party. The festivities included a customized cake and Serbian friends singing happy birthday as Agastya, dressed in a white Hot Wheels t-shirt, held a racing flag.
Natasa and Hardik were married in 2020 and welcomed their son Agastya in 2021. However, in July 2024, after months of speculation, the couple announced their separation. In a joint statement on July 18, they emphasized their commitment to co-parenting their son, Agastya.
“After four years of being together, Hardik and I have decided to mutually part ways. We tried our best together and gave it our all, and we believe this is in the best interest for both of us,” the statement read. “This was a tough decision for us to make, given the joy, mutual respect and companionship we enjoyed together and as we grew a family. We are blessed with Agastya, who will continue to be at the center of both our lives and we will co-parent to ensure that we give him everything that we can for happiness.”
As Natasa embarks on this new chapter in her life, her words reflect a journey of self-discovery and a focus on what lies ahead, with her faith and son at the center of it all.
