Pakistan's cricketing icon, Imran Khan, has said he plans to marry again soon.
This follows the break-up of his marriage with Jemima Goldsmith just a fortnight back.
"I am already thinking about looking for a second wife. It doesn't look possible this year, but I'll see if I'm able to find someone by my next birthday," the 51-year-old Imran said in an interview published in The Sunday Telegraph.
Describing his split with Jemima after nine years of marriage as "tragic", Imran, who was born on November 25, 1952, denied that any other person was involved and insisted that his wife had tried her best to relocate.
"She (Jemima) did everything, but sometimes you do things and do not succeed," he said, admitting that his passion for Pakistani politics and deepening commitment to public life might have made it more difficult for Jemima to settle down.
"Maybe, if I had been doing something else, or had more time to travel in England or everywhere, it would have been different. But as I said, it all was just very difficult. So that's all and it is very tragic."
