Irfan Pathan married Safa Baig in 2016 but not many of his fans knew that she used to be a popular model back then. Safi is always wearing a hijab in her pictures with her husband and she has no such social media handle.
Safa used to work in a model industry in Saudi Arabia before marriage and has been featured many times in a renowned fashion magazine in the Gulf. Safa Baig was born in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia on 28th February 1994. Safa Baig is the daughter of Mirza Farooq Baig, a Saudi based businessman and grew up along with four sisters.
She went to International Indian School in Jeddah for her schooling. Despite hailing from an orthodox Muslim family, she became successful in the modelling industry in no time with her charisma and talent.
Safa was not only an established face but a journalist and an excellent executive editor in a PR firm in Jeddah. She loved nail painting and also became a professional in nail art. Safa got married when she was just 21 while Irfan was 10 years older. The couple announced their marriage and even posted their marriage ceremony picture from his Twitter handle.
Irfan Pathan and Safa Baig, are now parenting their son, Imran Khan Pathan who was born in the same year they got married. Safa was many times criticized for leaving her modelling career behind but they continue to live a happy married life together.
Irfan Pathan married 21-year-old Safa Baig in a low key ceremony on February 4, 2016, at Haram Shareef in Mecca in Saudi Arabia. There is no doubt that Safa Baig is one of the most beautiful women. Jeddah-based model is known for her gorgeous doe-shaped eyes.
Meanwhile, Irfan Pathan posted a candid picture with his wife and son via his official Instagram handle. The picture went spread like wildfire on social media. While the majority of them liked the picture, there were others who chipped in with comments.
One of the fans questioned the pic posted by Irfan Pathan. The picture was taken right after the end of the India legends vs Sri Lanka legends match last month. According to the picture, she blurred her face and this tempted the fan to come up with such sort of a question.
She asled: “Why is her faced blurred out?” To which, Safa Baig responded by saying: “Hello ? I chose it to be that way. Have a good day! – Safa Mirza.”
