Pooja Bedi, mother of daughter Alaya F and son Omar, recently, during an interview, opened up about raising her children as a single mother. Pooja said that while she was in the process of getting a divorce from now ex-husband Farhan Furniturewala, she was told by many people not to go ahead with it.

However, Pooja said that she stuck to her decision as she knew that her relationship with ex-husband Farhan Furniturwala had run its course.

Speaking to Peepingmoon about the same, Pooja said, "When you are getting divorced, there is certain societal attachment to the word divorcee. Way back then at a time when I got divorced, almost 18 years ago, it was a massive deal to be divorced and move forward. 'Shadi kaun karega tumse? Baccho ka socho. Khud ka kyu soch rahi ho (Who will marry you? Think about the kids. Why are you thinking about yourself?). How will you find love again? Who will marry you? You are alone, divorced, you have baggage. My children were called baggage. I was like hello! They are my assets."

Pooja further explained her point by giving an example of her father, veteran actor Kabir Bedi, who has been married four times. 

Pooja said, "For me, it is also about the way I grew up. I grew up in a divorced family, knowing fully well that yes, you do find love again. And again and again. My father has been married four times now." 

For the uninformed, Pooja is now engaged to Maneck Contractor. The couple lives in Goa, videos, and photos of which are often shared by Pooja on her social media accounts.
