 Islamic Monitor | Haiqa Khan, nee Jemima Goldsmith
Jemima Goldsmith, the daughter of the late British financier Sir James Goldsmith, glamorized relationships with Muslim men when, at age 21, she married Pakistani cricket star and politician Imran Khan, a man twice her age.
Jemima fails to qualify that while a Muslim man can marry a Christian or Jewish woman, a Muslim woman is forbidden to marry outside her religion.
Jemima herself has unusual freedom of mobility for a Muslim woman (who must often get permission from her husband to travel), indeed, for any woman, due to her family's wealth: she and Imran split their time between residences in London and Pakistan.

London, Dec. 5: Jemima Khan has denied that her eight-year marriage to cricketer-turned-politician Imran Khan is in trouble and has protested that such speculation provoked by the latest report in the London Mail on Sunday is “hurtful”.
Pakistanis had attacked Jemima, who is the daughter of the late Sir James Goldsmith, a maverick billionaire, for her Jewish faith when the couple married, but she converted to Islam.
Although Jemima no longer uses her maiden surname, the story begins: “The increasing time that Jemima Goldsmith is spending apart from her husband Imran Khan is fuelling speculation that the couple’s eight-year marriage is in trouble.”

The fact that Jemima converted to Islam after the wedding and changed her name to Jamila Haiqa may have placated her husband's political opponents, but her open championship of the Palestinian cause in newspaper articles, given her Jewish heritage, raised fierce criticism amongst certain Zionist quarters.
As Jemima is not in Pakistan, however, Imran is legally permitted to serve her with divorce papers directly through an attorney or through the British High Commission in Pakistan.
Jemima was also charged with being a Zionist agent by Pakistani politicians looking to discredit Imran, as well as being a student of the blasphemer author of The Satanic Verses, Salman Rushdie.

 Scoop: Is Jemima's Marriage With Islam Also In Trouble?
Because when I analysed Jemima's present life through the prism of her claims she made in her article nine years ago I came to a single conclusion -after Imran, Jemima's marriage with Islam is also in trouble.
Jemima Khan claimed in 'Why I Chose Islam' that she thoroughly studied Quran and Islam and her conversion to Islam was not the 'pre-requisite' to her marriage.
Jemima needs to make herself clear on her relationship with Islam because there seem many discrepancies when her present life is examined through the lens of her earlier claims of converting to Islam 'entirely through (her) own convictions.' So, we are anxiously waiting for the second installment of 'Why I Chose Islam'.

From Jemima's perspective, a version of which appeared in British newspapers last week from the pen of an anonymous family source, the divorce was an inevitable dissolution of a bond which for her had become a strange, often joyless and lonely routine.
Jemima's Jewish ancestry was viewed with suspicion in Muslim Pakistan and for several months in 2002 she was assailed by a virulent campaign against her on the basis that she had studied under the blasphemer Salman Rushdie.
Acquaintances were struck by Jemima's thin and wan countenance, and a profile of the couple in Vanity Fair depicted a proud Imran forcing his wife to live in poverty, unwilling to accept any money from her generous estate.

Imran was a Muslim, while Jemima had a Jewish grandfather; he was 42 years old with a past, she was just 21 and barely out of her debutante's shoes; her natural habitat was London high society, he wanted her to live in the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.
Jemima continued to support her husband's failed political ambitions despite being vilified by hardline opponents who demanded her expulsion from Pakistan because of her Jewish ancestry.
As early as 1998 Imran acknowledged that Jemima was finding it tough going, not least because of the endless round of stomach bugs and power cuts for which her Western upbringing had not prepared her.

Jemima and Imran divorced in June 2004 after nine years, prompting a tabloid frenzy centering on her relationship with the British actor Hugh Grant.
The split was announced after months of rumours about Jemima's lonely life in Pakistan, where she wore the local dress, learned the Urdu language and apparently made every effort to fit in.
Khan blames personal attacks on Jemima by Musharraf's regime and a clash of cultures for the divorce, announced on June 22 last year, which has left him in Pakistan and his ex-wife in London with their sons.

True, she doesn't need the money; everyone knows that she is the daughter of Sir James Goldsmith, the billionaire financier who died of cancer in 1997, but her charity work has the regularity of a demanding, albeit part-time, job.
Jemima's profile, high since she married Imran Khan but soaring since she became involved with Hugh Grant, has an acutely fashion- centric angle.

Jemima was 21 and Imran 42 when they married in Richmond, south-west London, in 1995.
She was the socialite daughter of Sir James Goldsmith, the billionaire financier and founder of the Referendum party.
The marriage was controversial in Pakistan to the extent that some political opponents raised the Jewish roots of Ms Khan's late father, but that criticism quickly dissipated when it was revealed that she had embraced Islam and followed her husband in fundraising for Afghan refugees.

 The Telegraph - Calcutta : International
Jemima, 30, daughter of the late billionaire and founder of the Referendum party, James Goldsmith, travelled frequently during the couple’s marriage between Islamabad and London, where she was raised and retained many friends.
Some friends of Imran have suggested she failed to adjust to life in Pakistan partly as she missed her family in London but also because she found it difficult to cope with the sub-continent’s weather.
Imran, who was once called the “the sexiest cricketer in the world” and retains his looks at the age of 51, dismissed such suggestions and insisted that his wife had tried her best to relocate.
