Shubhangi Atre’s Ex-Husband Piyush Poorey Passes Away

After a courageous battle with liver cirrhosis, Piyush Poorey—the ex-husband of famous TV actress Shubhangi Atre—passed away on April 22, 2025. Piyush Poorey is an Indian businessman and former marketing executive.

The two were married in 2003 and shared a long 19 Years of relationship before parting ways. They separated in 2022 and were officially divorced on February 5, 2025.  Together, they have a daughter named Ashi, who is currently pursuing her studies in the United States.

Speculation has it that Shubhangi is still reeling from the breakup that occurred after the cancellation of her role as Angoori Bhabhi, the much-loved character from Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain. While the two had not been in touch for some time, sources say she has quietly returned to work but has asked for privacy during this emotional time.

Professional Background of Piyush Poorey:

Piyush Poorey held a Master of Computer Applications (MCA) degree from Devi Ahilya Vishwavidyalaya, Indore. He had a solid career in the media and publishing industry, holding various leadership roles over the years:

A Supportive Father and Partner:

During their marriage, Piyush was known for being a deeply supportive partner. When Shubhangi took a break from her career after giving birth, Piyush temporarily stepped away from his professional life to take care of their daughter—allowing her to return to television.

Even after their separation, both remained committed to co-parenting and prioritized their daughter’s well-being above all.
