Shakib Al Hasan, one of Bangladesh’s most iconic cricketers, is married to Umme Ahmed Shishir, a woman who has captured the hearts of millions not only for being the partner of the cricketing star but also for her charm, intelligence, and grace. Umme Ahmed Shishir, born in 1989 in Narayanganj, Bangladesh, spent much of her early life abroad and grew up in the USA, where she later pursued her education in software engineering.
Meeting Shakib Al Hasan
Shishir’s journey from Bangladesh to the USA was due to her family relocating when she was only 10 years old. She is known to have a strong academic background, and her professional career also reflects her dedication to her studies. She completed her education in the United States, where she specialized in software engineering. This educational background gives her a unique identity outside of her husband’s fame.
Shakib and Shishir’s love story began during one of Shakib’s tours to England, where the two met. Their relationship blossomed, and they eventually tied the knot on December 12, 2012, in a private ceremony attended by close family and friends. Their marriage gained a lot of attention both in Bangladesh and internationally due to Shakib’s fame and the couple’s personal charisma.
Life as Shakib’s Wife
Umme Ahmed Shishir quickly gained popularity after the marriage, with people admiring her for her simplicity, poise, and ability to maintain her individuality despite being married to such a public figure. She has accompanied Shakib to various international cricket events and is often seen cheering him on from the stands. Their union has been a strong and supportive one, as Shishir is often credited with being Shakib’s pillar of strength, especially during tough times in his career.
Shishir is also a devoted mother to their three children, born in 2015, 2020, and 2021, respectively. Despite the responsibilities of motherhood, she continues to balance her personal and family life gracefully. Today, she is admired as much for her own achievements as for being the partner of one of the most celebrated cricketers in the world.
