During a local channel's Ramazan transmission, celebrity couple Zara Noor Abbas and Asad Siddiqui shared their journey into parenthood, reflecting on their experiences of loss and the joy of welcoming their daughter, Noore Jahan.
They openly discussed the emotional complexities of becoming parents, highlighting their priority of having a healthy child over any gender preference.
Asad recalled the profound impact of losing their firstborn son, Aurangzeb, who was stillborn in 2021. This heartbreaking loss shaped their perspective during their next pregnancy. He shared, "I just wanted a healthy baby because we had recently lost one. And he was our baby boy; we had even named him—Aurangzeb—and shopped for him. So when we were expecting again, I instinctively assumed it would also be a baby boy because our minds were prepared for one from before."
"But then Noore Jahan came into the picture, and she's like our baby boy," he added affectionately. While recalling how they named their daughter, the couple revealed that Asad's late father had suggested the name Noore Jahan after considering names like Jahan Ara and Noor Jahan.
