Amir's father was just on the BBC Asian network and completely tore into Amir's wife. Calling her a liar, trouble maker etc. It sounds like they've given up on her.

The family seem nuts, they are totally embarrassing themselves in public.
Bringing a bad name to herself, her family and Pakistan (people in West will think all of Pakistan is this backward)
? Amir and his family are from UK and she is from NA and Pakistan will get a bad name? West can go to hell with their judgmental ways.
Bhai perhaps you don't know how it works in the west. If a person of "non-white" background or specifically South Asian/Middle Eastern background gets into something then the judgement is towards the country of origin. Doesn't matter whether the person was born and brought up in the west.
It's funny really, Faryal's not really doing anything different to any of the other media starlets of the day, you can check out any online tabloid and see the same behaviour from soap actresses to international singers. They say no publicity is bad publicity. But you are right, this will definitely get linked back to her ethnic background and she is playing it for all it's worth to be fair.
In what ways is faryal benefiting from this publicity?
If she wasn't why would she be making it public?
You never answered the question, it wasn't a dig at your claim am just curious

Not enough attention is being given to the fact that she uploaded such pictures of her brother in law. If the brother in law had uploaded similar pictures then they would've asked for his head. It works both ways ladies.
She's getting publicity, I thought I made that clear in the previous answer. There's a lot of money to be made if you play to the right audience. I know I could do it so understandable why she would.
Amir Khan should:
1. just bite the bullet and divorce his wife and move on....
2. Yank the a cord with his family and move away from them. I presume they were instrumental in getting him married to this woman , and then subsequently fell out with her. So they failed him in finding a compatible partner and then allowing the public mudslinging to go on.
This should also serve as lesson to all unmarried PPers that whilst looks and chemistry is important initially, it's not sufficient to sustain a long term relationship. If you go down the arrange marriage route, you better do your due diligence properly.

Not at all. If this was their mentality Amir would never have been a boxer but either working in a factory at 16 or studying to be doctor etc.
His parents backed him from a young age, it does take a lot of support to become what he has.

What if there's a chance it's not for publicity at all and she's just a frustrated and brave young woman who is speaking out against the evils which the daughter in laws of pakistani households face, am not ruling out the playing to the right audience either but am keeping all options open because neither of us can know for sure unless that reality tv show is actually happening
Yes certainly we shouldn't jump to conclusions. I can't say I ever saw it as a compatible match to begin with and it hasn't been helped by the family all staying together. You would have thought right from the start the couple should have bought their own place. it's not like they didn't have the money.
Yeah I agree with that, generally it's best to live separately. Traditionally though in pakistani households the girl tends to live with the guys parents and it's not often they move out.
Other thing with this publicity what I don't get is that they're not your typical celeb couple and things like family reputation is incredibly important, to put them in the spotlight is a bit weird; I guess it is Amirs parents who are in the hot seat and not faryals so that's another theory with regards to her daredevil approch and like you say the money is not an issue for either of them so am trying to get to the root cause of this, the ITV interview was good in the questions which were asked by holly willowboubie. Maybe the point of it all is revenge from Faryal
If money was what she was after, she could have divorced him when she didn't have the baby and when she was lot younger. 22, independent and having few millions is much more fun than being 25, independent and having a baby daughter. So money is not what she after.
But she evil for what she did to Harry though lol.
Even then she comes from a pretty wealthy family herself! so this narrative that she was with Khan for the money alone is a bit misleading, anyhow there's no denying that celebs have appeal amongst women given that fame/attention is an attractive train in addition to fighters having their own unique charisma. Amir is a good guy though despite what has been said over the years so it would be a bit silly for Faryal to throw him under the bus.
loool yeah that took it far, but am guessing she did to get back not only at him but his parents who called her out publically for her dress code which shamed her in the community so she's like so you all wanna play the religious card you got a son who doesn't exactly abide by islam does he when he drinks and gets involved with other ladies etc
LOL, are the parents seriously this naive to not see this before the marriage took place? It's not like she flipped 180 with how she dresses in the last few months..she's always been this way and the family should have voiced their concerns before they got their son married. The family seriously comes across as paindu.

Faryal Makhdoom lied about her degree. She is drop out : Amir's father
Figures, she doesn't seem very bright.
This is very civilized by Pakistani standards. Most of Pakistan is much more backwards than this.
She is at fault.
Chose the wrong girl and now his family is being destroyed.
Happens a lot sadly.
What wrong in her? She tolerated BS for years.
Amir's family is his wife and his daughter. Others should stop leeching Amir off.
Amir is firmly behing Faryal and has confirmed that she was indeed bullied.
Faryal's father should straighten out Amir's parentse, enough of their taunts at Faryal and her parents.
She is rude and arrogant. Also she dresses like a non Muslim. Publicity seeking reality star wannabe.
Well he had to as they were destroying his name, when you talk rubbish a response is natural. Likewise, your beloved Tomato Can fighting Kelly Brook will get smashed come fight nightI find it amusing that Amir chose to say to the media that he wants his wife and family to not go to the media...
Anyhow Faryal is no hero...so I don't know why she's getting love on here...her husband has asked her not to air their dirty laundry publicly and she's doing the complete opposite...I agree with her that its plain patriarchy from the family but again this isn't a conversation that needs to be made public...
I've seen these issues before between the 'modern' girl who sees her husbands family as 'fresh'...and the parents from back home who don't like how 'modern' their daughter in law is...bridging these differences must be very tough for Amir...and unfortunately whats made everything tougher is the people hes trying to bridge the gap between have shown a complete disregard for him...
Rule #1. Keep private matters private.

When she did that ITV interview from Toronto, she was with Amir. They were staying together, there was no way that she did that interview without his knowledge or his permission.
Faryal's parents speak to media for the first time.

What an annoying brat this sister is. Deliberately trying to spread fire. An why the hell is Pakistan media so interested in this? Amir is British not Pakistani. I haven't seen anything or very little on BBC, Sky or other British news broadcasters but Pakistani media report delay updates on this whole matter. They should get a life.
This girl looks really annoying. She is making everything in public.Somethings are better discussed and resolved within family not sharing on twitter and facebook.
'She's telling a pack of lies!' Amir Khan's father claims 'evil' daughter-in-law invented attack by his sister when she was eight months pregnant... and says marriage WILL end in divorce
Amir Khan's father Sajjad accused the famous boxer's wife of being bad mother
He goes on to say the former world champion will soon leave Faryal Makhdoom
Faryal reignited war of words by claiming Amir's family are trying to control him
She claimed they bullied her out of jealousy and because she was an 'outsider'
'Every single one of them is married to a cousin or a relative,' she said yesterday
Amir Khan's wife is 'telling a pack of lies' by claiming that she was slapped by his sister while she was heavily pregnant, his furious father said today.
Sajjad Khan fiercely denied that his daughter Tabinda had ever been violent towards the boxer's model wife, insisting: 'It's crazy . She doesn't know fact from fiction.'
Faryal Makhdoom Khan yesterday claimed that Khan's sister grabbed her hair and slapped her head while she was eight months pregnant with daughter, Lamaisah.
But in the bitter war of words between the feuding family, Sajjad accused his 'very evil' Faryal Makhdoom Khan of inventing the claims.
Sajjad accused his daughter-in-law of being a 'bad mother' for leaving her young daughter with her parents in New York over Christmas to be with him at a boxing training camp with Khan - and claimed his famous son would 'probably' soon divorce her.
As the 28-year-old boxer resumes his punishing post-festive training schedule in San Francisco, his father told MailOnline: 'The wife's gone with him and has left their baby girl with the other grandparents in New York.
'What kind of mother is she? That child should be with her parents but it's all about her and no one else.'
Sajjad told how he received a congratulatory text message from his son in America as he celebrated his 55th birthday on Christmas Eve – and a wish for a peaceful New Year.
But he predicted: 'I can't see that happening while she continues to behave in this appalling way.'
He said he thought a truce is unlikely, despite his son's threats that the 'childish' feud could cost both parties 'a son and a husband'.
Blasting model Faryal as 'a fame-hungry' loose cannon, he went on: 'We never know when she'll explode and what pack of lies will come next!' before adding his son's three-year marriage is 'heading the wrong way, probably for divorce'.
Sajjad and wife Falak recently moved out of the home they once shared with their son and his wife in Bolton, Lancashire.
He said: 'We don't want to be drawn into this battle any more but when she keeps coming out with a load of rubbish we're going to react.
'All she wants is exposure and whether it's good or bad publicity, I think it's all bad, it still gets her name out there and she's loving it.
She is a crazy, very evil woman who is playing with Amir's mind. My son's told her to keep quiet but she's showed him no respect and keeps spouting off
Amir Khan's father, Sajjad
'As I've said before she is a crazy, very evil woman who is playing with Amir's mind. My son's told her to keep quiet but she's showed him no respect and keeps spouting off.
'How dare she accuse my daughter of hitting her. We are aware of the allegation and she did not touch her.
'If she had been attacked why didn't she tell the police or get evidence from hospital? If she's so aggrieved why isn't she flying to England and standing up in front of us all to make these accusations to our face. Because it did not happen!'
Faryal claimed in a recent interview that Tabinda, who works for Khan's sports PR agency, 'grabbed my hair and slapped my head when I was eight months pregnant'.
She also said she regretted her many social media outbursts attacking her husband's family, but insisted it was 'an anger that's built up over the years'.
'They have been so unkind,' Faryal said. 'I was in Pakistan with Amir's family when his brother tweeted: "Michael Jackson isn't dead. He lives with us." He was trying to say I'd had plastic surgery.
Speaking out: Model Faryal claims she's been bullied by Khan's family for three years
Speaking out: Model Faryal claims she's been bullied by Khan's family for three years
'I was pregnant with our daughter, who's now two, at the time. Can you imagine what it was like being in the same house with him when he was saying that?'
She went on to claim the very insular family felt threatened by her, an independent part-time model from New York who owns her own cosmetic company, because they feared she would take him away.
She said: 'Every single one of them is married to a cousin or a relative. Amir's sister [Tabinda] is married to a relative from the village. Amir's brother's [Haroon] marriage was arranged with a relative from the same village.
'But Amir picked me because he fell in love with me. I was the first outsider, and asking me to marry him was the first big decision he made for himself. I think there was jealousy. He sent me so many gifts.'
'I believe they couldn't accept Amir had found someone who might take him away from them.
The former light welterweight world champion has amassed an estimated £30million since he won a silver medal in the 2004 Olympics in Athens at the age of 17.
Sajjad, who helps promote his son, claims his wife has hacked into the star's social media account and uses his password 'to control and change what he posts'.
We ought to encourage that victims of domestic abuse come forward.
If you check the time line of events then you would know that it was not started by wife.
Has domestic abuse been redefined since the last time I checked?
Surely divorce would mean Amir, and by extension the Khans, will lose a chunky portion of their wealth? Unless there is a pre-nuptial agreement in place.
She claims the Khans asked her to sign a prenup – a contract prior to marriage – two weeks before their wedding to protect Amir’s finances.
She said: “In our culture, to ask a bride to do that is very disrespectful. One of his team gave it to me when Amir was in the training camp.
“I signed it because I wanted to prove I didn’t want the money. I wanted Amir. He is the love of my life.
“When I was pregnant, Amir cancelled the pre-nup.”
Prenups are a grey area of law in the UK and sometimes aren't even enforceable (especially when kids are involved) but they did have one......
http://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/latest-news/573806/amir-khan-wife-faryal-makhdoom-family-feud
So she talks about prenup being disrespectful to her culture but asking girls to wear dupatta isn't ? Such a hypocrite.
I agree she should not have used the culture card.
However, she did sign the prenup (which is cancelled now) and that's between couple.
Plus, dopatta demand and prenup demand are not related, and if they are then it proves the hypocrisy of the family as both demands were from family and she did actually sign the prenup.
And in a different statement, wife clarified that she spends her own earned money as she considers Aamir's money as a blood money.
My concern is that she whined about bullying because she wasn't cultural and then all of a sudden says its disrespectful in her culture to ask for a Prenup.
