In a whirlwind of media speculation and fan excitement, a veil has finally been lifted from one of Bollywood’s most talked-about relationships. The actress Ananya Panday and her romantic interest, Walker Blanco, have taken to social media to officially confirm their much-anticipated relationship. This revelation, which has been long-awaited by their fan base, unfolded in the most heartwarming way — with a special birthday tribute that Walker posted for Ananya.
On the occasion of Ananya’s birthday, Walker shared an endearing message on Instagram accompanied by an intimate photo of the actress. In the snapshot, Ananya is captured smiling gently, her hand positioned playfully on her head, exuding a natural charm that fans adore. Walker, in his caption, wrote, “Happy birthday beautiful. You are so special. I love you, Anniee!” This public declaration of affection not only marked a significant step in their relationship but also left fans buzzing with joy and enthusiasm, as the couple has finally made their romance public.
Ananya Panday, donning a chic blue top and accentuating her look with a soft pink lip gloss, became the center of attention once again, though this time for her confirmed romance. For quite some time, her dating life has been under the radar, with previous rumors linking her to actor Aditya Roy Kapur. The two, however, reportedly parted ways earlier this year, and now, Ananya has found new happiness with Walker Blanco.
Adding to the wave of birthday wishes, Ananya’s mother, Bhavana Panday, also paid homage to her daughter on Instagram. Known famously for her role in “The Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives,” Bhavana treated fans to a nostalgic throwback video showcasing a younger Ananya with adorable expressions, as she humorously sipped cough syrup. This adorable glimpse into Ananya’s past only reinforced the loving and cherished bond within their family, delighting fans across the globe.
The question remains for many: Who is Walker Blanco? According to recent information, Walker originates from Chicago, Illinois.
. Yet, it is in Miami, Florida, where he has spent the majority of his life, crafting his unique lifestyle that he often shares with the world on social media. His Instagram is a vivid chronicle of his adventures, filled with images alongside exotic animals such as reptiles and birds, showcasing his strong affinity for nature and travel.
Walker pursued his education at Westminster Christian School in Florida and is no stranger to the limelight of social media, followed by prominent figures such as Ananya herself and her close friend Navya Naveli Nanda. This social media clout hints at a charismatic and vibrant personality, appealing not just to Ananya but also to a wider audience.
Reflecting on Walker’s previous relationships, reports from his Facebook profile suggest he was once linked romantically to Sylvia Guso back in 2017. This glimpse into his past adds to the layered dynamic now present in his blossoming romance with Ananya.
Meanwhile, the past whispers of Ananya’s romance with Aditya Roy Kapur have been silenced in recent months, following reports of their breakup in May 2024. Their relationship spanned approximately a year, with the first sparks igniting during a candid conversation on ‘Koffee With Karan Season 7’. In an episode, Karan Johar’s inquisitiveness led Ananya to discuss her admiration for Aditya, although she veered away from confirming their relationship in detail. Yet, when pressed by Karan about her alleged connection with actors Ishaan Khatter and Kartik Aaryan, Ananya opted for a more cryptic response, choosing not to delve into past entanglements.
Aditya’s own appearance on the show brought further speculation, with Karan asking directly about the rumors linking him to Ananya. Aditya, gracefully sidestepping a direct answer, countered with, “You see Karan, you said on your show ‘Ask me no secrets and I’ll tell you no lies.'”
As this new relationship with Walker unfurls, it marks an exciting chapter for Ananya Panday, whose charisma and charm continue to captivate audiences both on and off-screen. With this announcement, fans are now eagerly seeking to learn more about this budding romance that has just begun its public journey.
