Rimi Tomy’s Previous Marriage And Divorce
Before finding love with Libin, Rimi was married to businessman Royce Kizhakoodan. The two got married on April 27, 2008, at Lourde Cathedral in Thrissur. However, after 11 years of marriage, they decided to part ways. Rimi and Royce approached the Ernakulam Family Court for a divorce by mutual consent in 2020. Their marriage officially came to an end following the separation.
Following her recent wedding announcement, some social media posts began sharing pictures of Rimi with her former husband. Reacting to this, the singer requested people not to involve Royce in her new beginning.
She said, "I saw a lot of posts with my ex-husband’s picture. Just leave him alone. It was a decision he and I made together. He got a better partner than me, and they are living happily. Why are you adding his picture?"
