Despite having 26 years of an age gap, Ankita Konwar and Milind Soman found THIS one reason to MARRY each other
Milind Soman and Ankita Konwar gave surprise to the entire world after the couple got married last year in 2018. After dating for 5 long years, the couple finally decided to take their relationship to the next level and tag it as 'Husband and Wife.'
Recently, Ankita Konwar took to the social media to share their love story and how the couple managed to fight the odds to stay together. Anita Konwar who was working as a cabin crew in Air Asia writes a heartfelt note sharing her memories with Milind Soman.
Ankita penned down her emotional note for Human of Bombay, where people share their real-life stories, "It was at that time that my then boyfriend, suddenly passed away. It was heartbreaking– it felt like there was no coming back. A couple of months later, I got posted in Chennai."
"I was staying in a hotel with my colleagues. Once, in the lobby, I saw a tall, rugged man. It was Milind Soman! I was a big fan! So I went to say hello, but he was busy. A few days later, I saw him again at the hotel’s nightclub. I kept looking at him and he was staring at me too! My friends urged me to go talk to him. So I asked if he’d like to dance & he obliged! There was a vibe– I could feel it," she writes.
As Ankita just had broken up with her ex-boyfriend, she tried to ignore Milind and the bond they felt. She writes, "So I excused myself & I thought he’d forget about me. But soon he came looking for me– he had to go so he asked for my number."
As the two exchanged numbers, they started talking to each other and see each other whenever possible. This ignited the ray of love between them but Ankita was afraid. She was scared of her past and spoke about it to Milind.
She explains, "Until one day, I told him that because of my past, with my boyfriend, there was a part of me that couldn’t let go. To which he said, ‘When I fell in love with you, I fell in love with all of you. Even the part that carries the burden of your past. So don’t be afraid, we’re in this together.’ That’s when I knew, this was the man for me!"
They finally decided on getting married and talking to their parents. Ankita's parents were however not sure about their bond and were also worried as the couple had a huge age gap. However, they both never had issues.
Ankita says, "But it wasn’t an issue for us! So when they saw us together & they saw how happy I was around him, they agreed too! Believe it or not, we got married thrice! We had a traditional wedding in Alibaug, a white wedding in Spain under a waterfall & the third, at a place called ‘the end of the world’ there. He’s the best thing that’s happened to me; he taught me to let go, to fall in love, to be happy."
She concludes her post by framing it in the most loving form, saying, "I can’t wait to live the rest of my life with him.”
