While Sunanda Pushkar has maintained that: "Shashi an& I are very happy together sad for her to know i guess i get sick and go away 4 treatment &the vultures pounce." 

This is what she told the Indian Express yesterday after the controversy broke on Twitter:

Sunanda Tharoor alleged that her husband was having an "extra-marital affair" with a Pakistan-based journalist and that she would "seek divorce".

Sunanda Tharoor said she felt "destroyed as a wife and a woman" over her husband's "rip-roaring affair" with the Pakistani journalist which she claimed had been going on since April last year.

Sunanda Tharoor also claimed there have been a series of Blackberry Messenger exchanges between her husband and the Pakistani journalist in which, among other things, the possibilities of his divorce with her have also been discussed.

Asked what her next move would be, Sunanda Tharoor said she would seek a divorce from Shashi Tharoor. The Congress minister of state for human resource development and MP from Thiruvananthapuram married the Dubai-based entrepreneur in August 2010.
