Was an abortive bid to slow poison iconic cricketer-turnedpolitician Imran Khan to grab his political legacy the last straw that forced him to divorce his journalist wife, Reham Khan? This is one of the theories making rounds since the two announced the splitsville on October 30. Imran, 62, and Reham, 42, are yet to divulge reasons for parting ways, fuelling a barrage of speculative reports about the divorce. Journalist Arif Nizami’s revelation about the attempted poisoning citing intelligence sources has been among the most dramatic reports explaining the divorce. | Was an abortive bid to slow poison iconic cricketer-turnedpolitician Imran Khan to grab his political legacy the last straw that forced him to divorce his journalist wife, Reham Khan?

Imran Khan marries former BBC presenter: Reports | Jan 1, 2015 PTI
Imran says reports about his re-marriage `greatly exaggerated' [1] Jan 02 2015
Jemima Goldsmith
Imran first married Jemima Goldsmith and had two sons with her, Sulaiman Isa and Kasim. The couple divorced in 2004.
Jemima had revealed in October 2014 that she was dropping the surname 'Khan' and reverting to her family name because her ex-husband was about to remarry.
She said at the time: "My ex-husband, Imran, recently announced that he intended to get remarried soon, which made me think it's probably time to change my name back to Goldsmith."
Reham Khan
In late 2014 cricketer-turned-politician Imran Khan secretly married a former BBC anchor Reham Khan in a hush hush wedding, .
Then 62-year-old Imran [born 1952] tied the knot in Dec 2014 with Pakistani news anchor Reham [born 1973], then 41, who was a divorcee and mother-of-three.
She lived in Britain for part of her previous marriage, when she was a weather girl and presenter on the BBC regional news programme 'South Today'.
A family friend said that relatives including his sisters were against the marriage and were surprised he went ahead.
“The reports of my marriage are greatly exaggerated,“ the Pakistan Tahreek-i-Insaf (PTI) Chairman initially tweeted about these reports, before ultimately confirming them. “I want to say that I have, in the presence of my supporters, publicly expressed my wish to remarry. However, marriage cannot be entered into lightly. Second marriages especially need to be considered carefully as children are involved. It is only respectful that we wait for an appropriate time.”
Reham Khan did not categorically deny the reports about her marriage either.
The day after the controversy broke, ratings of Reham's political talk-show `In Focus with Reham Khan' on DawnNews incredibly shot up

Imran Khan, wife announce divorce
Pakistani cricketer-turned-politician Imran Khan, 62, and his TV journalist wife, Reham Khan, 41, on Friday announced their divorce with mutual consent after a 10-month marriage. Imran's Pakistan Tehreeki-Insaf (PTI) spokesman Naeemul Haque made the announcement on the ex-cricketer's official Facebook page before the couple confirmed the decision to part ways on Twitter.“This is an extremely painful matter but I can confirm that they have mutually agreed on the divorce,“ he said. “There will be no further communication in this respect.“ “I would request everyone to respect our privacy ,“ Khan tweeted. He added he has “greatest respect“ for Reham's moral character and passion to work for and help the under privileged while denying rumours about any financial settlement between them.
Rumours about the marriage being on the verge of collapse had been doing rounds since Imran announced Reham would no longer participate in politics or hold any party office following PTI's defeat in a bye-election. “I am appalled & disgusted by attacks on Reham after our loss in NA (National Assembly) 19 election.

Reham tried to poison Imran?
Oneindia Imran Khan-Reham divorce: PTI chief's wife tried to poison him for political gains? Oneindia | 5th Nov, 2015 05:08 PM
Islamabad, Nov 5: At a time when people are still wondering why Imran Khan ended his 10-month-old marriage with wife Reham Khan, reports now claim that the main reason for the divorce was that Reham tried to poison the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) chairman.
Reports say, Reham allegedly tried to poison her husband Imran Khan to grab his political legacy.
"She wanted to get involved with politics and that is not what Khan wanted at all. She just did not want to sit at home," he said. This further cements the above claim.
