'Just not getting along'
A source close to the PTI chairman, who asked not to be named, said the two were "just not getting along." "She wanted to get involved with politics and that is not what Khan wanted at all. She just did not want to sit at home," he said. "There were teething problems as well over other issues which were being resolved but this was a major issue — she wanted to get into politics and was not ready to back down." A source close to the PTI chairman said the two were "just not getting along." Another confidante of Imran Khan told Dawn.com that there was "a lot of pressure on Khan" from his family to divorce Reham, an apparent reference to Imran's sister Aleema Khan who had made no secret of her displeasure over the marriage.

Sources said Reham has left Pakistan for London and is expected to address a conference there. In August this year the PTI chief had announced that Reham Khan, will not be playing an active role in party affairs, following "attacks" on his then wife in the aftermath of the party's defeat in the NA-19 (Haripur) by-polls. The PTI chairman and television journalist Reham Khan had tied the knot in a simple nikkah ceremony which took place in January this year at Khan's Bani Gala residence. The nikkah, which was a low-key affair, was conducted by Mufti Saeed and was followed by a photo session. The wedding had captivated the entire country, with television channels going all out to cover the event and furnished their audience with details of wedding sherwani and chappals.

In it's early days, the marriage was marked by public appearances of the newlyweds who were seen smiling and happy at various events. Reham on several occasions had candidly expressed her feelings for Imran, saying he is "no longer alone". In an early interview, she had said: “I didn’t know Mr Khan was Mr Right, you wait your whole life for Mr Right and then you find Mr Most Right." The cricketer-turned-politician was previously married to English journalist and activist Jemima Goldsmith for nine years. The marriage ended amicably in 2004 with Goldsmith stating that she was unable to adapt to life in Pakistan. Reham Khan was previously married to psychologist Ijaz Rehman, with whom she had three children.
