One of the cons of being in showbiz is that a celebrity often finds themselves embroiled in controversies for speaking their minds, something they did or because of their personal lives. Aamir Khan has been in the news for all three reasons, and today, we bring you one of the controversies that arose from his relationships.

As per reports, nearly two decades ago, Bollywood’s Mr Perfectionist was accused of abandoning his love child – Jaan, with British journalist Jessica Hines. Scroll below to read the whole scoop.

In 2005, a Stardust article about Aamir Khan left his fans shocked. The article claimed that Khan and a British journalist, Jessica Hines, were in a live-in relationship. As per the report, after being in a relationship for quite some time, Jessica realised she was pregnant with Aamir’s child.

The report further stated that Aamir Khan and Jessica Hines met during the shooting of Ghulam, before moving in together.
