It sounds like there was some speculation about Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan’s relationship after Abhishek liked a post about divorce. However, the situation seems to have been misunderstood.
Abhishek Bachchan’s like on a post about divorce was initially misinterpreted as a sign of trouble in his marriage with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.
However, it has since been clarified that the like was likely due to the article’s contribution by Zirat Marker, a close friend of Aishwarya.

This explanation has shifted the conversation from relationship rumors to recognizing Marker’s involvement.
A user wrote,
“So this divorce post which people took as a confirmation of divorce is him being a supportive partner and therefore may be a confirmation of not being divorced.” Others called it a “crazy plot twist.”
Heena too took to her Instagram handle to share a note that read,
“I am not familiar with his personal life, but it seems his single like on the post has been blown out of proportion.
While he certainly doesn’t need me to defend him, I feel a bit disheartened that my Instagram story highlighting his like has contributed to this situation.”

The source added,
“For your information, this post has garnered as many saves and shares as likes.
Many people, including those who did not like or comment on the post, have reached out to me to express their appreciation for both the story and its subject matter. This response is quite telling.”
The post that Abhishek Bachchan liked was an excerpt from an article on divorce, specifically focusing on “grey divorce” or “silver splitters,” which refers to people seeking divorce after age, 50.
The like was reportedly linked to the article’s contribution by Zirat Marker, a friend of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.
Zirak Marker, a prominent psychiatrist and long-time friend of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan since their time at Jai Hind College, contributed to the article Abhishek Bachchan liked. Aishwarya launched Marker’s book, “Parenting in the Age of Anxiety”, in 2016.
Abhishek also invited Marker and his family to the premiere of his film “Ghoomer.”
