Reham Khan, the infamous ex-wife of Pakistan’s newest Prime Minister has been under fire since before the elections. Though the filth being spewed in her direction began soon after her divorce, it has only gotten worse with time. She published an autobiography that allegedly “exposes” Imran Khan.
Since his victory, she has been doing rounds in both Western and Indian media, using all her skill and potential to badmouth her ex.
Only a day ago she was interviewed on CNN by Hannah Vaughan Jones who received a flush of abuses by PTI and Imran Khan supporters. Reham shared her views on Imran Khan’s victory expressing how she is severely ‘unhappy’ for Pakistan because it doesn’t know what’s coming. She reiterated her belief that Khan is liberal in his personal life but incredibly narrow-minded in his views of his wife and his nation. Hannah Vaughan Jones later exposed that she received a lot of hate online for her interview with Reham.
People questioned Vaughan asking that if CNN desired insight then a far better and much more articulate option would have been Jemima Khan.
Received torrent of abuse for iv w/ @RehamKhan1 @CNNi. For the record, she was invited as she has unique insight into #ImranKhan & is engaged/articulate about #Pakistan. Shame on those who would silence free speech w/hatred & disgusting language https://t.co/weIzF8K2g5 — Hannah Vaughan Jones (@HVaughanJones) July 29, 2018
It troubles me that #RehamKhan fails to gracefully redeem herself at every opportunity presented. Maybe learn how to be an ex 101 from Jemima. — Alina A. (@thealinecomplex) July 27, 2018
#RehamKhan is bleating on about what worked for @ImranKhanPTI. Well, she didn’t for a start. It’s his hard work, stamina and determination that worked for him. That’s why he’s #PrimeMinisterImranKhan and she capitalises on just being an ex. — Dr Rita Pal. #Vote4Khan #ImranKhan #Pakistan (@dr_rita39) July 26, 2018
Jemima Goldsmith was invited but was unable to accept the invitation — Hannah Vaughan Jones (@HVaughanJones) July 29, 2018
Imran Khan’s ex-wife, #RehamKhan, is the saltiest woman I’ve seen in my life. She’s the little kid in class who snitches to teachers for attention. Her whole career is based on hating her ex, who is more famous and successful than her. SHE CANT GET OVER HIM LOL What a loser — Sajid M.Qureshi (@sajidmq) July 29, 2018
This interview with Reham and the many others she has conducted in the past with Indian newscasters just goes to show how eager Khan is to demean, disparage and belittle the new Prime Minister. Her twitter posts continuously question PTI’s actions and are unaccepting to all her ex-husband’s policies and opinions. In the buzz and excitement of the Pakistani population to get “Naya Pakistan” and a Prime Minister they believe they deserve, Reham Khan’s words have only been received as spiteful.
