Ashley Cain, who is a really popular ex-soccer player, has found himself in the middle of controversies. He is also known for his appearance on “The Challenge.” His relationship with his former girlfriend and partner, Safiyya Vorajee, has been controversial and filled with difficulties for more than a year now. Just when things had started to settle after the couple’s split, things have now taken another turn and it has gotten ugly now.
Safiyya Vorajee, Ashley’s ex-girlfriend, was visibly upset about Ashley having a child with another girl. All this, just after the tragic death of the couple’s daughter, which shattered both of them.
The visibly angry and upsetting state of Safiyya has prompted fans and media to turn to Ashley, who is demanding a response from him. Some fans have even started abusing Ashley on his social media account for being inconsiderate to a woman, who was the mother of his child, just a year ago.
Ashley Cain And Safiyya Vorajee: The Couple’s Timeline
The couple had started dating quite a long time ago. The two started dating secretly initially. If reports are to be believed, it was Ashley, who approached Safiyya first, and eventually, she responded. Safiyya Vorajee is a nurse by profession. The couple finally made their relationship public in the year 2018. They had posted their first-ever photo on Instagram together.
Since then, the couple was often seen together, enjoying holidays and quality time together. They frequently posted photos together and love seemed pretty obvious between the two. Hence, it did not come as a surprise when the couple welcomed their first child together, a lovely daughter, in the year 2020. They named their daughter Azaylia. The couple was visibly happy and ecstatic after the birth of Azaylia.
However, their happiness was short-lived. Azaylia was diagnosed with leukemia, which is a type of blood cancer. It was very difficult for both of them to share this news with the media. The couple asked for all the best wishes and prayers that the fans could offer.
Azaylia underwent stem cell therapy to cure her leukemia in early 2021. However, despite all efforts to save the child, she eventually succumbed to cancer in April 2021. The couple was devastated and it was an emotionally testing moment for them.
The Controversy: Explained
The couple had split a little while back, citing personal reasons after the death of their daughter. They had said that they wanted some privacy during this difficult time and announced that the split was mutual. They remained friends and continued to support each other in various ways.
However, in a recent development, Ashley Cain announced that he was expecting a child with a woman, who he dated pretty recently. Although the exact identity of the woman is yet unknown, Ashley revealed that he had known the woman from long back when he was just 18 years old. Ashley described the feeling of having another child as strange after he lost Azaylia. However, he believes that he was put on this Earth to be a father.
Safiyya Vorajee, on the other hand, was pretty upset about her ex-boyfriend having a child with another woman. She believed that the loss of Azalia did not affect Ashley as a father and he has already moved on. She even revealed some personal details about the tumultuous times she faced with Ashley after the loss of their child. Ashley reportedly wanted another child which Safiyya was not ready for. She did not want the new child to be just a replacement for her old child. She also revealed that Ashley had a couple of drinks and abruptly broke up with her saying that he couldn’t continue in a relationship with so much grief.
After these revelations, Ashley has said that he has chosen to remain quiet just because he respects the privacy between Safiyya and him. He also responded to his haters who commented on his social media that he has been trying to move on but he still has a lot of grief for his passed daughter.
He had even said that he remembered his daughter Azalia through his beard because she would often tug on his beard. Even some of his fans have come forward to defend him in these difficult times, highlighting the importance of empathy and care.
