The move is the latest scandal to rock the couple’s ten-year marriage.
This was announced by a source close to the Khan family MailOnline: “Faryal is taking his time to think about whether or not to go away.
“She is going through a very difficult time and decides to focus on her children while she and Amir continue to care for them together.”
In an Instagram post Friday night, Faryal said, “Fall in love with someone who doesn’t make you think love is hard.”
It comes after The Sun revealed how Amir asked bridal model Sumaira to send him revealing pictures.
The boxer also attempted to hook up with the 25-year-old after first contacting her in May to compliment her tattoos.
In one message, he told her “looks great with a thong” and suggested she get a boob job.
Weeks later, Khan – who married Faryal in 2013 – posted a snap online of himself with his US model wife and daughters, saying “10 years later.”
He later revealed that he was willing to undergo therapy to stop sexting other women.
Khan also apologized to his wife after she asked him, “If you have a diamond at home, why would you want to play around with stones?”
The I’m a Celebrity star also took Faryal on a romantic trip to Mykonos in the wake of the scandal.
She later released a bombastic statement on Instagram in which she sharply criticized Sumaira.
Faryal said she refuses to “play my marriage publicly” but released a statement “after a long week of accusations, defamation and harassment.”
She also claimed she was the victim of a “hate campaign” and accused a Sumaira representative of trying to “damage” her reputation.
And Faryal spoke about how she has “borne the brunt of many scandals and embarrassing events.”
She said: “I’m being criticized for being Amir’s wife and still staying with him despite knowing his ‘track record’.”
“This is the man I am also married to and have three young children with. The whole world knows his track record, his reputation precedes him, why would a single woman even want to have a conversation with him?”
“My focus is on my children and protecting them from whatever happens. I’m just a mom trying to do what’s best for her kids and that’s all I want to put my energy into.”
Amir and Faryal married at a £1million party at New York’s Waldorf Astoria Hotel in 2013.
In 2014 they had their first child, daughter Lamaisah, now nine.
They also have daughter Alayna, five, and son Muhammad, three.
The couple split back in 2017 after cheating rumors continued to plague their marriage.
At the time, Faryal criticized the former light welterweight champion for repeatedly sleeping with other women.
Khan hit back by claiming his wife slept with Anthony Joshua, which the boxer has consistently denied.
Most recently, the couple starred in the BBC series Meet the Khans: Big in Bolton, which ended its third season earlier this year.
