KARACHI: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) MP and controversial game show host Aamir Liaquat Hussain tied the knot for a third time with a teenage girl he introduced on Thursday as Syeda Dania Shah.
“Last night, [I] tied [the] knot with Syeda Dania Shah, 18,” he wrote in an Instagram post. “She belong[s] to an honourable Najeeb ut-Tarfain ‘Sadaat’ family of Lodhran, South Punjab. [She is a] Saraiki, lovely, charming, simple and darling.”

He also tagged several fashion news outlets and an unverified Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) account in the post.
The announcement came hours after his second wife, Syeda Tuba Anwar, announced divorce from Hussain.
In his post, Hussain, 49, also requested his “well-wishers [to] please pray for us, I have just passed [through a] dark tunnel, It was a wrong turn,” in an apparent reference to his split from Anwar.
Anwar, who married Hussain in 2018, shared the news of her split through an Instagram post on February 9. “With a heavy heart I want to make people aware of a development in my life,” she said.
“My close family and friends are aware that after a separation of 14 months, it was evident that there was no hope for reconciliation in sight and I had to opt to take khula from [the] court.
“I cannot express how difficult it has been but I trust Allah and His plans,” she added. “I would appeal to everyone that my decision is respected during these testing times.”
