Bobby Deol Sets the Record Straight: No Alcohol Addiction in His Family, Says Wife Tanya

Bollywood veteran Bobby Deol and his wife Tanya have finally addressed a wave of speculation that’s been floating around social media and certain tabloids. The rumors, which claim that the actor himself is battling alcohol addiction and that his teenage son is following the same path, were outright denied by the couple during a brief press interaction last week.

When asked about the allegations, Tanya, who has been a steady presence by Bobby’s side for years, responded with a calm but firm "No, this is simply not true." She added that any claim suggesting a drinking problem in their family is "baseless" and seems to stem from "misunderstandings" or, frankly, a desire to create drama.

It’s worth noting that Bobby has been open in the past about a difficult phase in his life when he struggled with excessive partying and occasional drinking, especially during a career slump a few years back. He has since spoken about those days as lessons learned, emphasizing how he turned his focus toward fitness and family. Yet, the current chatter tries to paint that past as an ongoing battle, which the couple says is far from reality.

The rumor mill even extended to their son, Aryan, who is now a teenager. Some speculative articles suggested he was “showing signs of alcohol dependence,” a claim that Tanya vehemently rejected. "Our son is a school-going kid, studying hard and spending time with friends. There is no such issue," she said, adding a hint of exasperation that these stories are hurting the family’s privacy.

Fans have taken to the comment sections with mixed reactions—some expressing relief at the denial, others still doubting the couple’s words. It’s a reminder of how quickly gossip can spiral, especially when it involves beloved film personalities. As Bobby put it in a brief statement, "We appreciate the concern, but let’s focus on the work and the positivity that surrounds us."

In the end, the Deols are asking for a little space to let their children enjoy a normal upbringing, away from the relentless spotlight. They hope that the public will respect that request and move on, allowing the family to focus on what truly matters: health, happiness, and, of course, a few good movies ahead.
