Talking about how her mother Pooja Bedi and her father Farhan Furniturewala’s divorce affected her as a child, Alaya F told Bollywood Bubble in an interview, “My parents were going their separate ways, but I would see them all the time.They were very friendly with each other. Even today, they are great friends. My mom attended my father’s second marriage!”
She further added that as a child, after seeing her parents being co-ordial and friendly with each other, she never thought divorce to be a bad thing. “In my head, divorce was never really a bad thing because my parents handled their divorce so beautifully. When my friend was going through something similar (at home), I didn’t think it was a big deal. I was like, ‘It will be good for you, it will be great for your family’, because that’s generally how I thought divorce to be,” Alaya said.
Alaya also opened up about her equation with her step-family and revealed that she was close to them. “I am extremely close to my step-mom. My half-brother, who I even hate calling my half-brother because he is my brother, we have the same dad different moms, is like a piece of my heart, my child. So I can’t imagine a life where my parents had stayed together,” she revealed.
She also said that even her mother was quite friendly with her step-mother. “My mom and step-mom are also very good friends,” Alaya said about Pooja Bedi’s equation with her ex-husband’s wife.
While some divorces are ugly and can lead to trauma and resentment not just between a couple but also their families, few others are also quite amicable where the couple realises that they have grown-apart and decide to move on in life. Ultimately, even if a couple decides to head for a divorce, how they communicate and respect each other plays an important role in their future equation.
