RJ Mahvash recently shared a deeply personal and painful chapter of her life. She explained that her fiancé cheated on her multiple times, causing immense emotional turmoil that significantly impacted her mental and physical health. This betrayal resulted in severe panic attacks, which required medical attention, including hospitalisations and injections to manage her condition.
