WIFE Faryal Makhdoom had a public and bitter row with Khan’s family.

WAR of words on social media with Faryal, accusing each other of affairs.

ACCUSED her of having a fling with Anthony Joshua, which the heavyweight champion flatly denied.

TOOK part in ‘I’m A Celebrity’ in December. This helped relaunch his career and he signed a three-fight deal with Eddie Hearn in January.
