    “She (Rabia) said she found out in the morning who would be the guest alongside with her on the show. We have one makeup room where all our guests are present so she knew who was arriving. She could have consulted with me in private but she didn’t. She had spoken with my team but not with me because I was on set. She could have taken a stand behind the camera.”

    “As a host it is my job to be respectful to everyone…When there is a guest in front of me I can’t start accusing them of being wife beaters, chalo leave my show. Who am I to say such a thing like this? I am a host so I have to respect everyone.”

    Nida Yasir further elaborated that the incident left her feeling quite insulted, and after Rabia left the show she was never invited back.

    Rabia had addressed the comments in a post on Instagram stories, writing there were bigger issues on this planet to care about than media gossip.

    Iman in her recent interview with Vasay Chaudhary opened up about the insecurities she has about her physical appearance.

    “A lot of people tell me I’m beautiful, but when I look at myself in the mirror, I think all these people are lying,” said Iman.

    “When people tell me you like your face and you just lie in front of us, it’s not so,” she added.

    She continued “I don’t even take pictures because of my face because I don’t like any picture and that’s why I post very few pictures of myself on social media.”
