Milind Soman is an iconic supermodel of the yesteryear, who is now grey-haired, but still has been an inspiration for his ability to age gracefully.
On the other hand, Ankita Konwar is a vivacious and bubbly air hostess from Assam, who dares to live on her own terms.
So, how did the Mumbaikar marathon runner and the Guwahatian flight attendant met?
Milind had a broken relationship before as he was earlier married to French actress Mylène Jampanoï in 2006, which ended in 2009. He also had a 4-year long relationship with actress Shahana Goswami, which ended in 2013.
Milind was looking for a stable relationship, and then he met Ankita on 26 February 2014. Love sparked between the two in just a few interactions.
Then what, the news that Milind fell for a girl half his age spread like wildfire and has been a trending love story ever since he disclosed it. They are one of the most talked about couples, mainly because of their huge age difference of around 26 years.
Initially, Milind was trolled on social media for their age difference, but he never gave a damn to the trollers. The couple has always been open about their relationship and one can easily see the great chemistry between them.
In the summers of 2016, Ankita visited Milind’s farmhouses in Lonavala for the first time to spend some quality time with the new man in her life, whom she gave the nickname”wicked man.”
One thing that instantly found a connection between the two was that both are travel freaks. Just after few months of dating, the couple went for their first foreign trip to Pattaya in Thailand, where both seemed to be back to their childhood days.
She started finding her every morning happening in the company of her beau.
She even celebrated Diwali with Milind Soman and his mother in Mumbai.
At the touch of love, everyone becomes a poet. Instead, she became a runner as after being in a relationship with the “Marathon Man of Bollywood” has turned her a marathoner like Milind.
Now, she frequently participates in ‘Pinkathon,’ India’s Biggest Women’s Run, co-founded by Milind Soman.
The cute couple is a frequent traveller and has been going on vacations worldwide.
She is very close to his friends and family, who have warmly accepted their relationship. That’s why, she never misses a chance to spend some quality time with his family.
In November 2017, Milind travelled to Assam to meet Ankita’s parents. While his stay in Assam, he also attended her cousin’s wedding, where she introduced him to her extended family.
This is how they celebrated the 4th anniversary (26 February) of their first meeting.
And, this is how they enjoy their lazy Sundays.
On 9 April 2018, Ankita posted a photo of her holding Milind’s hands with the engagement rings, indicating about their engagement.
She is not only half of his age, but also his better half.
