Second marriage
On September 25, 2017, at the age of 44, the actress announced her second marriage to Amir Khosrow Abbasi, a media and cosmetics industry activist. Amir Khosrow Abbasi is the owner of the Heinz and Jaxiast cosmetics brand in Tehran.
The presence of Bahareh Rahnama and Amir Khosrow Abbasi in the Shabahang program was an incident that caused the rumors about the actress’s divorce from her second husband to spread again. Of course, this time, the audience saw Hamed Ahangi’s program and looked at this issue from another perspective, and thought that when the two participated in a program together, then there was no news of separation and the news about their divorce was rumored.
But it was not long before Peyman Ghasemkhani’s ex-wife published a text on her Instagram, which clarified everything.
Unlike her first marriage, the second marriage did not last long and bahareh officially announced her divorce from Amir Khosrow on her personal Instagram on April 2022. Her second marriage only lasted for 4 years and now she is single ready to mingle again.
Modeling experience
The actress has been present in various brands as an advertising model for a long time, except for her husband’s brand. She has been a model for various masons such as RIMAAH.
Surgery and weight loss
The actress, who has been suffering from overweight for many years, was forced to have an auction and put a balloon in her stomach a few years ago. She lost a whopping 25 KG in just 8 months by having liposuction surgery and with a special diet.
Sentenced to 50 lashes
In April 2016, Sirvan Khosravi criticized the situation in the country in an Instagram post, criticizing Hassan Rouhani’s celebrities. At first, Amir Mehdi Jouleh reacted to Khosravi’s words, but a few minutes later, the artist’s Instagram page was hacked and closed.
In defense of Jouleh, Ms. Rahnama accused Sirvan of drawing attention to his rudeness, which Sirvan Khosravi eventually sued for Rahnama’s spring tweets, and was able to sentence him to 50 lashes. The court suspended the sentence for two years due to the actor’s social status and lack of previous record, so that the sentence would be ineffective if she did not commit the offense.
