YouTuber Gaurav Taneja and his pilot wife Ritu Rathee have become a talking point on social media ever since a video of Ritu asking for guidance to spiritual guru Premanand Govind Sharan surfaced online. In the video, Ritu with a covered face can be seen asking, “I have daughters, I can’t keep working forever. As a mother, I will have to raise my children. To give them time, I will have to quit my job”. Ritu was weeping as she spoke to the guru. While the date of the video in question is not known, it has now sparked separation and divorce rumours.

Soon after, Gaurav took to his Instagram handle to share a long note, and wrote, “I will remain quiet for my kids and the mother of my child. Ready to live with all the negativity and hate for my entire life. Please don’t expect any public explanation.” He added, “Men are made villains very fast. Social media is not a place to discuss family matters. I have nothing to say.”

Now, his wife Ritu has broken her silence with a long video, defending her husband and declaring she doesn’t needs society’s help. In the video, she also confirmed that the women in question in the viral video was indeed her, but it wasn’t society’s business to get involved in her private life.

She said, “In a video, some personal questions were asked. Was that me? Yes.” She added, “A small thing happened between a husband and wife. He thought he was right, I thought I was right. He became stubborn, and so did I, But does that mean that you will tell me what kind of a man he was? I know that man inside out. I don’t need to hear from you whether he is genuine, whether he was loyal. I have seen him go through every situation. I don’t need support from social media.”

Crediting her husband for empowering her, Ritu said, “I can take care of my daughters. Not because I am a pilot, but because my husband empowered me. Which man equally empowers a woman?” She added, “People who live in glass houses love to gossip about others.”

Echoing her husband’s words, Ritu further said, “Earlier, when people lived in joint families, society blamed women for everything. Now, society has evolved, people have become independent. Now the man is blamed if a couple separates.” However, both Ritu and Gaurav haven’t confirmed or denied their separation rumours. They tied the knot in 2015 and often share pictures together. In May, Ritu had shared several photos from their USA/Canada trip on her Instagram handle.
