Who is Jessica Hines? UK-based journalist and Aamir Khan's alleged ex-girlfriend

Bollywood actor Aamir Khan's brother, Faissal Khan, has made shocking claims against him, reigniting old rumours. At a press conference, Faissal claimed that Aamir had an affair with Jessica Hines while he was married to his first wife, Reena Dutta. He even said that Aamir and Jessica had a child, born out of wedlock.

Aamir Khan's rumoured girlfriend, who allegedly had the actor's child

Faissal, who has cut ties with Aamir Khan and family, told the media, “Aamir married Reena and later divorced her. Then he had a relationship with Jessica Hines, unka illegal baccha tha, out of wedlock (he had an illegitimate child). He was living with Kiran (Rao) at that time (of this incident).” 

Who is Jessica Hines?

Jessica Hines is a journalist and writer from the UK. As per multiple reports, she came to India during the late 90s while working on Amitabh Bachchan’s biography. It is said that it was around this time that she met Aamir Khan during the making of his film Ghulam.

In 2005, the popular Stardust magazine reported that Aamir and Jessica were in a relationship and even living together. Jessica reportedly got pregnant during the relationship. While Aamir allegedly wanted Jessica to terminate her pregnancy, she chose to give birth to their son in her early 20s. He was reportedly named Jaan.

Later, Jessica moved on and married London-based businessman William Talbot. 

These rumours, however, were never addressed by either Aamir or Jessica.

The gossip faded over time until pictures of Jessica’s son Jaan emerged on British Vogue in 2012. Reportedly, Jessica shared the Vogue photo on Twitter and wrote, “Jaan in Vogue.”

The photos sparked debate about the child's uncanny resemblance to Aamir in terms of looks.

Jessica is yet to respond to Faissal Khan's recent claims.

As of now, the claims remain speculative with no formal confirmation. 

LiveMint couldn't independently verify these claims.
