Actor Akshay Kumar couldn’t contain his pride as his wife, author Twinkle Khanna, won the Popular Fiction category at the Crossword Book Award 2024 for her novel Welcome to Paradise. Taking to Instagram Stories, Akshay shared a heartwarming and humorous message celebrating Twinkle’s achievement.
He wrote, “My trophy wife—literally (laughing emoji). But she earns her own accolades. So proud of my Crossword Popular Choice Award winner (kissing face emoji).” His playful yet affectionate post quickly gained attention from fans, who admired the couple’s supportive relationship.
Twinkle also shared her excitement on Instagram, posting a video of herself receiving the award. The clip showed her trophy displayed alongside her book and her pet dog, Mr Jeeves, as Queen’s We Are The Champions played in the background.
Akshay’s reaction highlights his unwavering support for Twinkle’s literary journey. Known for her witty writing and keen observations, Twinkle has established herself as a celebrated author in recent years. While her win was a proud moment for the family, the celebration took an unexpected turn when her dog, Mr Jeeves, ate a piece of chocolate cake meant for the occasion, leading to a late-night vet visit.
Despite the mishap, Akshay’s message reflected the joy and pride the couple shared over Twinkle’s achievement. Fans continue to laud their bond, celebrating both her literary success and his endearing support.
