Divyanka Tripathi and Vivek Dahiya recently delighted fans by announcing their pregnancy. The couple, who are expecting their first child, have now reacted to their photograph being allegedly `misused` alongside reports of women embracing motherhood in their 40s.

Divyanka Tripathi slams misuse of her pregnancy pictures
Divyanka Tripathi took to her Instagram story to react to the reports, expressing her dissatisfaction over the misleading presentation. She acknowledged that every path to parenthood is beautiful and conversations around late motherhood are important; however, the publication should have verified before publishing, she said,. “Misleading Image usage. While we appreciate the advancements in medical science and what it means for so many, we’d like to clarify that our positive results are not due to IVF. It’s NATURAL CONCEPTION. That, too, ignites some kind of hope. Every path to parenthood is beautiful, and we support the awareness you are creating through the article. Only if you asked us if it stands true to us or not! We have a story leading us here, just that, this one isn’t ours,” the actress wrote.
Vivek Dahiya also reacted to the use of their photos in the article, and wrote, “We value responsible journalism and are surprised to see our picture placed next to an IVF story, when our journey was natural- simply isn’t right. Accuracy matters, and this wasn’t verified with us.”
Divyanka on conceiving at the age of 40
In her earlier vlog, Divyanka spoke about embracing motherhood at 40 and shared that it felt like the right time. “We stayed very positive, even though it took time for things to fall into place. Still, we always had faith in each other. Somehow, we had a strong feeling that something would happen by the end of 2025. That’s why I even stopped taking up work. I felt that if I started something new and then conceived, it might affect the work. I don’t know, but it felt like a strong instinct from God, and in a way, I was already preparing myself for this,” she said.
Meanwhile, Vivek had revealed that Divyanka had conceived naturally. “And by the way, for everyone who is curious to know, this is a natural pregnancy.” “All the modern methods that are available today to help people conceive have supported so many couples, and we truly appreciate science,” Divyanka added.
Divyanka and Vivek first met during the filming of the TV series Yeh Hai Mohabbatein and tied the knot in 2016.
