Murtaza Wahab Denies Reports of Bilawal Bhutto’s Engagement and Marriage

LONDON:Karachi Mayor and Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari’s spokesperson Murtaza Wahab has denied reports circulating on social media regarding Bilawal’s alleged engagement and marriage by the end of this year.

Social media reports had claimed that Bilawal Bhutto’s engagement had been finalized with a prominent personality from Vaduz, the capital of Liechtenstein, or with a woman associated with the Austrian royal family.

The reports further claimed that President Asif Ali Zardari had traveled to Europe with his family to finalize the wedding date and other arrangements.

However, the PPP spokesperson has categorically rejected all such reports and rumors as baseless.

In a statement on social media platform X, Murtaza Wahab said that reports regarding Bilawal Bhutto Zardari’s engagement or marriage were completely false and baseless.

Bilawal Bhutto has previously responded openly and humorously to questions from journalists about his personal life and marriage plans.

During the 2024 United Nations General Assembly session, a journalist asked him about his plans to get married. Smiling, Bilawal said that he certainly planned to get married, but did not announce any final date.

Earlier, in a conversation in 2016, Bilawal had said that whoever became his life partner would first have to win the hearts of his sisters and take them into confidence. He jokingly remarked that winning his sisters’ hearts would be an extremely difficult task for any woman.

The PPP has clarified that there is currently no truth in the reports concerning Bilawal Bhutto Zardari’s marriage and urged the public and media not to pay attention to unverified information.
