In the world of cricket and glamour, few love stories captivate like that of Yuvraj Singh and Hazel Keech. What began as a one-sided pursuit turned into a fairy tale of persistence and passion.
Yuvraj, the swashbuckling Indian cricketer, first spotted Hazel at a mutual friend’s gathering. Smitten instantly, he asked her out for coffee. Hazel agreed verbally but ghosted him repeatedly, switching off her phone on date days. This cat-and-mouse game dragged on for three grueling years.
Yuvraj shared this hilarious anecdote on The Kapil Sharma Show, revealing how he sent friend requests on social media, only for Hazel to accept them after three months. Undeterred, he kept trying through common friends.
Their breakthrough came during another meet-up. Conversations flowed, Yuvraj’s wit charmed Hazel, and friendship blossomed into romance. In a pivotal moment, Yuvraj proposed, and Hazel said yes with a smile.
The couple got engaged in Bali in 2015 and tied the knot in a traditional Sikh ceremony on November 30, 2016. Hazel embraced the name Gurbsant Kaur post-marriage. Today, they are proud parents to two children, living a blissful family life that proves true love endures all waits.
