On July 7, 2015, Minissha Lamba had tied the knot with Pooja Bedi's cousin, Ryan Tham in an intimate wedding, which was kept under the wraps from media. However, a few years into marital bliss, Minissha and Ryan parted ways amicably and in August 2020, she had confirmed their legal separation.
Minissha Lamba never spoke in detail about the issues in her married life that led to divorce. Now in an interview with Navbharat Times, Minissha said, "In the West, the concept of self-love is very strong. Self-love does not mean being selfish. Divorce is not easy but when the relationship becomes toxic then it is okay to leave. I would also like to say that your marriage or relationship can be an important part of your life but it cannot be your whole life. Unfortunately, women are identified by their relationship and marital status but now the times are changing."
It was in 2013 when Minissha Lamba had met Ryan Tham at his nightclub, Trilogy in Mumbai and two years later, the couple had decided to exchange wedding vows in an intimate ceremony. Three years into married life, the reports were rife in 2018 that Minissha and Ryan were facing troubles in their marriage. After maintaining silence for 2 years, Minissha had finally confirmed her separation from Ryan in 2020.
