The British−Mauritian model Hazel Keech tied knot with Indian cricketer Yuvraj Singh on 30th November this year after a much charming engagement and a pre-wedding soirée. The traditional ceremony took place in Gurudwara Sahib in Punjab.

According to reports, during the wedding rites, Hazel was constantly referred by a new name, Gurbasant Kaur by Saint Balvinder Singh, who was carrying out the rituals. It’s being said that Saint Baba Ram Singh Ji suggested that she change her name from Hazel to Gurbasant.

It is widely known that Yuvraj Singh and his mother Shabnam Singh are ardent followers of the saint and it was reported that Gurbasant Kaur has also followed their footsteps.

In fact, Yuvraj’s mother openly said in an interview, “Hazel has also met our Guru ji a couple of times and she follows him truly and with full dedication, as she understands we cannot question our Guru Ji. We all know how he saved Yuvi from cancer and helped in bringing my boy back to life.”

It is said that the couple is now getting ready for their beach wedding in Goa.
