In a heartfelt revelation, Andrea Hewitt, the wife of former Indian cricketer Vinod Kambli, shared details about their tumultuous relationship and her decision to stand by her husband despite his ongoing struggles.
Andrea Hewitt opens up about Vinod Kambli’s struggles
Speaking in a recent podcast hosted by freelance journalist Suryanshi Pandey, Andrea disclosed that she had filed for divorce in 2023 but chose to withdraw it after witnessing Kambli’s vulnerable state.
Andrea, who married Kambli in a private civil court ceremony in 2006, opened up about the challenges they faced due to Kambli’s battle with alcohol addiction. She admitted that his struggles had taken a toll on their relationship, leading her to contemplate leaving him. However, her concern for his well-being ultimately kept her by his side.
“He will be helpless if I leave him. He is like a child, and that hurts me. It makes me feel worried,” Andrea said during the podcast. She recounted moments when she considered walking away but was overwhelmed with concern for his health. “I would not even leave a friend, but he is more than that. I remember there were moments when I would just walk away. But then I would be worried: Has he eaten or not? Is he on the bed properly? Is he okay? Then I had to check on him, and I would understand that he needed me,” she added.

Kambli’s health concerns and Andrea’s support
Kambli’s health has been a cause for concern in recent months. In December last year, he was admitted to Akruti Hospital due to a urinary infection and severe cramps, leaving fans worried about his condition.
Despite these challenges, Andrea has remained a constant source of support for the former cricketer. Her dedication was evident earlier this month when she was seen assisting Kambli at the 50th-anniversary celebration of Mumbai’s iconic Wankhede Stadium. Andrea helped him walk to the stage to receive an award from cricket legend Sunil Gavaskar, showcasing her unwavering commitment to her husband.
As Kambli continues to battle his health issues, Andrea’s steadfast support serves as a testament to the strength of their bond. Her story is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices and resilience often required in relationships, especially when faced with adversity.
