Recently,
an
old
interview
of
Raj
Kundra's
ex-wife
Kavita
surfaced
on
the
internet
in
which
she
had
blamed
actress
Shilpa
Shetty
for
their
divorce.
Upset
by
the
viral
video,
Raj
opened
up
on
his
divorce
with
Kavita
in
an
explosive
interview
with
an
entertainment
portal.
He
slammed
Kavita
for
slinging
mud
at
his
wife
Shilpa
and
made
some
shocking
allegations
against
her.
Raj
claimed
that
Kavita
was
having
an
affair
with
his
sister's
husband
when
they
were
living
in
London.
He
also
alleged
that
she
was
paid
'thousands
of
pounds'
for
the
controversial
interview
against
his
wife
Shilpa
Shetty.
He
said
that
Kavita
sold
her
soul
during
the
divorce
by
blaming
the
Dhadkan
actress
when
she
herself
was
the
reason
why
their
marriage
ended.
Later,
in
a
tete-a-tete
with
ETimes,
Raj
spoke
at
length
about
why
he
decided
to
break
his
silence
on
his
divorce
with
Kavita.
He
revealed
that
his
wife
Shilpa
is
upset
that
he
spoke
his
heart
out,
but
the
truth
had
to
come
out.
Talking
about
how
Shilpa
didn't
want
him
to
react
to
Kavita's
old
interview,
Raj
told
the
leading
daily,
"Shilpa
didn't
want
me
to
speak
when
I
sent
her
the
old
articles
going
viral
again.
The
timing
of
these
articles,
days
after
her
birthday
going
viral
again,
upset
me.
Enough
was
enough!"
He
revealed
that
he
had
cut
all
ties
with
Kavita
post
their
separation
and
said,
"I
have
never
spoken
to
Kavita
and
I
never
want
to.
I
tried
reaching
out
to
my
daughter
via
her
family
members
but
they
couldn't
get
me
access
or
straight
answers.
I
know
she
will
come
and
find
me
when
the
time
is
right.
I
only
saw
her
for
her
first
40
days
and
then
I
moved
to
India
after
my
marriage
to
Shilpa.
Kavita
didn't
want
me
near
my
child.
Courts
also
favoured
the
mother
at
that
age."
Referring
to
his
recent
explosive
interview,
Raj
said
that
he
feels
much
lighter
to
be
able
to
speak
the
truth
about
what
really
happened
after
so
many
years
and
added,
"My
mother
caught
my
ex-wife
and
sister's
husband
red
handed,
in
compromising
situations
many
times.
Two
families
were
spoiled
here;
they
didn't
think
twice!"
Raj
further
bared
his
heart
on
his
bitter
separation
with
his
first
wife
and
said,
"Kavita
brought
out
the
worst
in
me.
The
relationship
became
toxic!
I
have
moved
on.
I
am
in
a
happier
place
now.
Why
is
it
so
strained
you
ask?
She
cheated
on
me
fine,
but
with
my
sister's
husband,
spoiling
two
families
at
once.
This
was
unforgivable!"
For
the
unversed,
Raj
and
Kavita
got
divorced
in
2006
after
three
years
of
marriage.
Their
daughter
Deelena
was
only
a
few
months
old
when
the
couple
parted
ways.
