Amir Khan explains why he accuses his wife of sleeping with Joshua

Two years ago, Amir Khan accused his wife, Faryal Makhdoom, of sleeping with the WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO champions Anthony Joshua. Khan has explained how his feud with Joshua started. Khan posted false messages on his Twitter and then got into a row with his wife. The pair decided to split in a bizarre series of tweets. "It was a made-up message," he told ESPN . "A lot of people were making all these fake messages saying that 'Joshua messaged your wife and she messaged him back.' Then I posted it on social media and said, 'This has happened and it's true. And I'm calling it over. She's no longer my wife.' I did feel bad, I did feel stupid at the time but the damage was done. I made that mistake in tweeting something and putting it out. I was just digging a deeper and deeper hole. I remember I went to see Faryal. I apologised. I said, 'Look, I don't know what went through my head.' And I totally changed my ways, changed the way I am." Despite their separation, the boxer was able to piece together his relationship with his wife, and now, they are back together. "It was just a lack of understanding. Faryal comes from a city. She's a young girl. She likes to dress differently. Bolton's a little town. The dress code's a little bit different, being a Muslim,” Khan explained. "I was stuck in the middle. I kept it cool with Faryal. I kept it cool with my family. And I tried to resolve the situation. I wasn't a husband of the year. I was a bit naughty at times. I used to get caught misbehaving, going out, partying, clubs, going out with other girls and stuff. ... Fame is a b**** at times. Everything is printed in the tabloids." Khan will fight with Terence Crawford, who is defending WBO Welterweight title for the second time since beating Jeff Horn in June 2018. The fight will take place on Saturday, April 20 at Madison Square Garden, New York City.
