Personal Life
In 2008, media reports in Pakistan surfaced that Malik has married Ayesha Siddiqui, a woman from Hyderabad, India, on 3 June 2002. Malik denied these allegations saying his marriage plans with the woman did not go through, because of a lack of consensus between both the families. In April 2010, Siddiqui's family released Shoaib-Ayesha 'marriage' certificate (Nikahnama). On April 2, 2010, Malik said he plans to sue Siddiqui's family for "indulging in character assassination". On April 7, 2010 Malik confirmed his marriage with Siddiqui and signed the Talaq (divorce) papers.
On 12 April 2010, Malik married Indian tennis player Sania Mirzain an Islamic wedding ceremony at the Taj Krishna Hotel in Hyderabad, India for a mahr of 61 lakh (US$137,500).
Malik is now based in Dubai.
