The model shared an Instagram story from Serbia and also had the company of her son. It’s been reported she plans to settle in her hometown permanently.

The Indian cricketer was recently seen with a mystery girl in a viral picture and Natasa has shared a cryptic post on this very viral picture. “Love everything but don’t lose the Lord,” said the Serbian model.

It has also been rumoured that as part of the divorce settlement, Natasa has claimed 70 per cent of Hardik Pandya’s property. The rumours have led to the trolling of   Natasa  on social media. She was also trolled earlier during the IPL, when Hardik had taken over as Mumbai Indians (MI) captain from Rohit Sharma, who led the team to five IPL titles.

A few days ago, Natasha had also shared a video of her collaboration with Crocs India. “Doing what I love the most - playing dress up ft. my crocs. What’s your pick for a summer fit? 1-3?", she had captioned.

She, however, got trolled for the post, with one user saying: “Don’t ever ask a share of Hardik’s money he earned it with his hard work the only decision in which he failed was marrying you."

Another social media user posted: “Make a kid with a well established guy. then get married to him and the divorce him. Such a cool startup idea with zero funding."
