Actress
Samantha
Ruth
Prabhu
has
finally
opened
up
about
her
separation
from
Naga
Chaitanya.
During
her
recent
interaction
with
Filmfare,
the
diva
stressed
that
she
is
very
proud
of
how
strong
she
is.
Sharing
how
she
has
been
coping
with
her
life
since
the
divorce,
Samantha
told
the
leading
magazine,
"It's
ok
if
you
are
having
a
bad
day,
vocalise
it
understand
it,
as
soon
as
you
accept
that
you're
going
through
something,
half
the
work
is
done.
It's
when
we
don't
accept
it
and
we
are
fighting
it
it's
a
never-ending
battle.
But
when
you
vocalise
that
'this
is
my
issue,
so
what
now?'
I
still
have
to
live
my
life.
I
know
I'm
still
going
to
live
my
life
and
with
all
the
issues
that
I
now
faced
in
my
personal
life,
I
was
surprised
at
how
strong
I
was.
I
thought
I
was
a
much
weaker
person.
I
thought
that
with
my
separation,
I
would
crumble
and
die.
I
didn't
think
I
was
capable
of
being
this
strong.
Today
I'm
very
very
proud
of
how
strong
I'm
because
I
really
didn't
know
I
was."
It
was
on
October
2,
when
Samantha
and
Chaitanya
announced
their
separation
through
their
respective
social
media
handles,
which
indeed
left
many
heartbroken.
A
part
of
their
similar
statement
read,
"We
are
fortunate
to
have
a
friendship
of
over
a
decade
that
was
the
very
core
of
our
relationship
which
we
believe
will
always
hold
a
special
bond
between
us.
We
request
our
fans,
well-wishers
and
the
media
to
support
us
during
this
difficult
time
and
give
us
the
privacy
we
need
to
move
on."
Their
divorce
was
announced
five
days
ahead
of
their
fourth
wedding
anniversary.
The
duo
tied
the
knot
in
2017.
