Amir Khan’s wife FINALLY breaks her silence about their marriage

We need to get to know him, apaz

| Updated:

She’s so far kept her silence since getting back with her on/off husband Amir Khan, after a bitter battle of words both online and off.

But with Amir now Down Under fighting for the I’m A Celeb crown, Faryal has decided to speak out about her partner of five years – and despite their very rocky year, she couldn’t be more complimentary.

Speaking to the Mail On Sunday, Faryal said Amir was a “good, good guy” and added that she was “glad he was on TV” so that people could see the “real side of him”.

“Sometimes people judge you without knowing you,” she told the paper, and, perhaps in a passing nod to all the newspaper stories that have dogged them this year, added: “We all do stupid things in life. I think people read things and you don’t mean it like that.”

In a separate interview, Faryal told The Sun how proud she was of Amir for taking part in I’m a Celebrity – despite previously revealing he has a VERY nervous disposition and if he sees a spider in their house, phones her to return home to deal with it.

“I’m proud of him,” she told the paper. “I can’t speak to him and I have no way of contacting him but I hope he’s OK.”

And when asked if she thought he might win, Faryal said she thought Amir’s camp-mates liked him – even if he isn’t coming across as the life and soul of the group.

“Amir seems really depressed and quiet but I think he’s liked,” she said.

Of course, Amir’s quiet demeanor could be down to the tumultuous few months he and Faryal have endured before his surprise decision to enter the jungle.

After months of gossip and innuendo about their on/off relationship, Faryal made the shock announcement in August that she was pregnant with the pair’s second baby, tweeting: ‘”Alhumdulilah, blessed with baby number 2 in my tummy. Excited, eating away, can’t stop.”

However, despite her jubilation, friends said she had vowed to raise the baby on her own, saying, “I don’t need his help.”

Then, just a few months later in November,  Amir shared a cute snap of he and Faryal captioned: “With my 4 month pregnant wife, after sorting out all the issues. Closing the year with a happy ending.”

Hard to keep up, isn’t it?

But all the while Amir is doing his thing in the jungle it can only mean good things for their relationship, right? Absence making the heart grow fonder, and all that…
