    Amir Khan divorced his wife Faryal Makhdoom on Twitter

    Amir Khan and his wife Faryal Makhdoom sensationally announced their marriage is over in an explosive ongoing row on Twitter, which has seen them both accuse the other of cheating.

    The boxer, from Bolton, who is worth £23million, this afternoon astonishingly claimed his wife had an affair with heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua.

    So me and the wife Faryal have agreed to split. I'm currently in Dubai. Wish her all the best.

    — Amir Khan (@amirkingkhan) August 4, 2017

    Faryal moved on quick. Always mentioned to me how much she wanted to be with another guy, from all people another boxer ???? @anthonyfjoshua pic.twitter.com/1GBAQnvzMC

    — Amir Khan (@amirkingkhan) August 4, 2017

    Lol moved up in the weight classes lol. Trust me I ain't the jealous type. No need to send me pictures of the men your talking to #disgusted

    — Amir Khan (@amirkingkhan) August 4, 2017

    Left my family and friends for this Faryal. I'm not hurt but another fighter. I'm making it public. You getting the divorce #Golddigger

    — Amir Khan (@amirkingkhan) August 4, 2017

    Mans like Joshua can have my left overs!

    — Amir Khan (@amirkingkhan) August 4, 2017

    But the model, 26, hit back, claiming her husband is lying and that he is a ‘cheater’.

    British heavyweight boxer Anthony Joshua says he has never met Faryal Makhdoom

    The couple were together on holiday in Dubai to celebrate Faryal’s 26th birthday last week, but it’s understood that Faryal has since flown back to England herself.

    Joshua, 27, laughed off the claims by posting a video of Shaggy’s hit single ‘It Wasn’t Me’.

    Bantz aside, I hope you guys can resolve your situation or this is a hack as we have never even met! Plus I like my women BBW #ItWasntMe

    — Anthony Joshua (@anthonyfjoshua) August 4, 2017

    He then tweeted: ‘Bantz aside, I hope you guys can resolve your situation or this is a hack as we have never even met! Plus I like my women BBW #ItWasntMe’

    A Khan family source told MailOnline: ‘Amir and Faryal have split up. It’s over. There have been problems in the relationship for a long time and they were headed for a separation. It’s the best outcome.’

    Within minutes, Faryal hit back on her own Twitter account and accused him of cheating on her.

    She wrote: ‘I’m sure you left your family because they robbed you? Not because of me. Stop making false things up.

    Faryal Makhdoom accused Amir Khan of being an adulterer claiming that was what stalled his boxing career

    ‘Accusing other boxers just because your boxing career is finished. Man up amir.

    ‘After all these years. I’ve always defending a cheat, always stuck around for him, always had his back. And I’m called a gold digger?

    She added: ‘LOL! He’s given me jack s**t — I pay house bills and bills for my daughter myself! It’s like I’m a single mother while he’s out messing around. And he has the nerve to blast me like that?

    ‘The amount of evidence I have on you. It can destroy you. But since I loved you at one point in my life. I’ll just let it go.

    ‘I’m not the one who’s been in the papers every month with my pants down. Cheater!

    ‘You have actually lost it. Wtf where do u make this stuff up from? And maybe your boxing career is finished because you’re an adulterer.

    ‘At the end of the day I can hold my head high knowing I’ve given this marriage my 100% while amir clearly hasn’t. Bad company.

    ‘Bad role model, always around women, alcohol and then he calls himself a Muslim and runs a charity.

    ‘I’m sorry to all the fans & family hurt by this. But amir did not need to do stupid tweets accusing others when he’s in the wrong. #guilty

    ‘I think he just needs some attention because boxing hasn’t been going well for him so he’s just been acting up #30yearoldbaby

    ‘Sometimes people don’t like it when you give them a taste of their own medicine.’

    When Faryal was approached for a comment at the couple’s £1.4million gated home in Lostock, near Bolton, this afternoon, there was no response.

    And accused Joshua has also not been seen for several days in his north London neighbourhood.

    Laundry worker Hiyat, who works at Launderette in Golders Green, where the star boxer is a regular customer said the boxer has not been seen since mid-July.

    His mother Yeta had also not been into the shop, where Anthony has had his laundry done since 2009, for a few days.

    Hiyat said: ‘I haven’t seen Anthony for about three weeks or his mum for about three days.

    ‘I’m not sure where he has gone though, I don’t know if he’s on holiday.’

    There was also no answer at the family flat where the 27-year-old still lives with his mum, despite being a millionaire.

    The news of their split came after the couple ended their bitter six-month public feud with Khan’s family.

    Another Khan family source told MailOnline: ‘Faryal is evil. She took control of Amir and drove him to the extent where he has suffered depression.

    ‘Amir was almost held hostage by in-laws and was given ‘either with us or against us’ situation to decide between his family and in laws.

    ‘That’s tragic. It was clear from very early on that Faryal is interested in Amir’s money and fame and we told Amir so that she’s a bad choice.

    ‘We all make mistakes. It’s good Amir has reached to the conclusive fact that she’s a cheater, selfish and greedy. This was bound to happen.

    ‘She he has been caught out, Amir has known for long she loves showing flesh to men and being interested in praise by random men and confronted her.

    ‘They found twice in America when Amir asked her to be modest, she issued threats to Amir and demanded 60 per cent share in property. For the last five months or so she only talked about share in Amir’s wealth and nothing else.’

    Make-up artist Faryal has had a tumultuous few months in which she became embroiled in a huge row with her husband’s family, claiming they accused her of being a gold digger and dressing in an un-Islamic fashion.

    The couple were hit by further drama when a sex tape of Khan performing a sex act on a webcam while chatting with a model was leaked to a US porn site.

    Earlier this year, Faryal gave her sports-star hubby an ultimatum to choose between her or his family after months of infighting and rows.

    Faryal banned the boxer from attending his younger brother Haroon’s wedding because she still can’t forgive him for comparing her to Michael Jackson.
