During his appearance with ‘other women’ Amir Khan admitted he felt lost and unproductive when he was out of the ring due to his hand injury.’Going through the hand injury that I had, not being in the boxing ring, being away from my family, going through a lot of stuff in my life, I think the best place for me is to be in the boxing ring.

When I was away from that, it took me all over the place. I lost that focus and that structure. Not being in the gym, not training, when you have all that downtime you have all that energy in your body.

‘I came to a stage where I didn’t know what to do with my life. I was wrecking my marriage, I wasn’t boxing, I had a hand injury, I didn’t know where to go, what to do.’
‘Hopefully going into 2018 we’ve both put that behind us, we’ve got a lovely baby coming this year, we have also had Lamaisah our daughter, my boxing career, [I will] get some good fights in. What went wrong? A lack of communication’ said Amir Khan.
Faryal added: ‘it was just a misunderstanding. I was in England he was in Dubai, he thought he was a bit cool in Dubai doing some tweets.’
