She is enduring a very acrimonious split from a boxer worth £23million and preparing to welcome their second child, alone.
But Amir Khan’s estranged wife Faryal Makhdoom was keen to show off her independence on Sunday as she got back to work during her pregnancy.
Captioning some behind the scenes shots for a campaign for her self-made beauty brand, Faryal simply wrote: ‘Back to hustlin”

A ‘hustle’ is generally considered to mean doing anything in order to make money.
Glamorously dressed in a red fluffy coat for the beauty shoot, Faryal found the humour in shooting during her pregnancy, as she was dressed in jogging bottoms just out of the shot.
She captioned one shot, ‘Lol at my pants’ as the photographer captured portrait shots of her beautiful features.
Her cheekbones were perfectly contoured and she pouted through striking red lipstick, before changing into a second fluffy ensemble.
Faryal launched her eponymous beauty line in June 2015, ‘after gaining attention from her highly publicized glamorous wedding’, her personal website states.

The beauty married Amir at New York’s fabled Waldorf Astoria hotel in 2013, where the building was transformed into a scene from the Arabian Nights.
They have one child together, three-year-old daughter Lamaisah, and Faryal revealed her second pregnancy in August, just weeks after their separation was announced.
She made a firm statement about the baby last week when she stepped out alone, carrying the ultrasound and deliberately flashing her ring-free hand.
Now Amir has dealt her the ultimate blow by reuniting with his parents in Pakistan, a year after the family fell out with Faryal about the way she dressed.

Amir’s dad Shah told Geo News in December 2016: ‘Faryal was adopting a dress code which in the Islamic faith was not acceptable.
He added: ‘We kept asking Amir to tell her not to adopt such a dress code. And even if she had to wear such dresses, please don’t post it on social media.’
Amir’s mother Falak said: ‘I asked her not to wear such dresses and to take the dupatta (scarf), but he never listened.’
Pregnant again: Within weeks after the couple split their year, Faryal revealed that she was expecting their second child (here last week, with the baby scan)
After inititally defending his wife, Amir seems to have been welcomed back into the family.
He posted a picture with his mother and father wi
th the caption: ‘Lovely time in Pakistan with Mom & Dad. Taking off shortly to England. Had a lovely time here. See you all soon.’
It is believed that Faryal could stand to gain at least half of Amir’s estimated £30million fortune when the divorce is finalised.
