Former India cricketer Shikhar Dhawan officially registered his marriage with wife Sophie Shine in Gurugram on Wednesday, according to officials from the marriage registrar’s office. The couple arrived at the registrar’s office in Vikas Sadar to complete the legal formalities related to their marriage registration, accompanied by family members and a priest. The registration process drew attention from fans and media following the couple’s wedding earlier this year.

Officials said the formalities at the registrar’s office were completed smoothly within approximately 35 minutes, after which the marriage certificate was formally issued. Superintendent Vasudev from the marriage registrar’s office confirmed that Dhawan and Sophie personally signed the required documents in the presence of witnesses and accompanying family members. During the proceedings, a light-hearted moment reportedly occurred when someone jokingly asked whether the priest’s photograph was also being captured while the documentation was underway.

Shikhar Dhawan reportedly appeared at the office wearing a dark blue T-shirt, while Sophie Shine was dressed in a light sky-blue top. The couple remained relaxed throughout the process as officials completed the legal documentation. Their marriage registration comes months after the two tied the knot in an intimate wedding ceremony held in the Delhi-NCR region on February 21, 2026, attended by close friends, family members, and select guests.

Dhawan’s relationship with Sophie Shine had attracted considerable public attention in recent months after the former Indian opener shared photographs and moments from their wedding celebrations on social media. Sophie Shine, an Irish product consultant, has largely maintained a low public profile despite increasing public interest following her marriage to the cricketer. Their wedding celebrations earlier this year generated widespread discussion among cricket fans and entertainment circles alike.

Shikhar Dhawan remains one of India’s most recognised cricket personalities despite stepping away from international cricket in recent years. Known for his aggressive batting style and charismatic personality, Dhawan enjoyed a successful career representing India across formats and was a key member of several major ICC tournaments. He also remains a popular figure in the Indian Premier League, where his performances and public presence continue to attract strong fan engagement.

The official registration of the marriage marks another milestone in Dhawan’s personal life following a period of significant public attention surrounding his relationships and career transitions. Fans and well-wishers continued congratulating the couple online after reports of the registration emerged on Wednesday. The cricketer has frequently shared glimpses of his personal journey on social media, maintaining a strong connection with followers even after reducing his involvement in competitive cricket.
