Actor

Ravi Mohan

recently sparked widespread attention after being seen attending a high-profile wedding with his alleged girlfriend,

Kenishaa Francis

. The two were spotted holding hands as they exited the venue, leading to a social media frenzy and reigniting speculation about the actor's personal life. The wedding, hosted by educationist Ishari K Ganesh for his daughter, was attended by several celebrities, but it was Ravi Mohan's appearance with Kenishaa that drew the spotlight.“For a year, I have carried silence like armour”In the wake of the viral photos and videos, Ravi’s wife

Aarti Ravi

has broken her silence, sharing an emotional and strongly worded statement that has since gone viral.

In her heartfelt note, Aarti expressed the pain of enduring a year of silence for the sake of her children, stating: “For a year, I have carried silence like armour. Not because I was weak, but because my sons needed peace more than I needed to be heard.”

“The man I once stood beside…”She continued, highlighting how she had absorbed every accusation and cruel whisper in order to protect her children from the pain of divided loyalty. Aarti confirmed that the divorce is still ongoing and accused Ravi of not only walking away from their 18-year-long relationship but also from the responsibilities he once vowed to uphold. She also alleged that she and her children are being evicted from their home, a move she suggests is orchestrated by the actor himself. “The man I once stood beside… has not just walked away from me – but from the very responsibilities he once promised to honour,” she wrote.

Many commenters across social media platforms expressed solidarity and admiration for her courage, calling her statement a much-needed stand for self-respect and motherhood.
