The all-rounder, who celebrated his 32nd birthday on October 11, shared a series of cosy photos with the 24-year-old model on his Instagram Stories, hinting that the two had recently been on a romantic getaway. Seeing Hardik all but make the dating news official, fans took to social media to send apologies to his ex-wife, Natasa Stankovic.
The public sightings of Hardik and Mahieka began when the two were photographed together at Mumbai Airport just hours before the Instagram posts surfaced on the cricketer's account. Rumours had been circulating intensely over the last few weeks.

What Led to Hardik and Natasa's Divorce?
While the couple did not publicly delve into the reasons behind their divorce, it has been reported that Natasa found Hardik 'too flamboyant'.
"He was too flamboyant for her, too full of himself. Natasa could not handle it anymore. She realised that there was a major gap between how they were as people," a source was quoted as saying by Times Now. "She tried to match him but it made her feel uncomfortable. This was a never-ending process so it became tiring after a while. Natasa was not able to keep pace, hence she decided to take a step back."
