Katrina has seven siblings: three elder sisters (Stephanie, Christine, and Natasha), three younger sisters (Melissa, Sonia, and Isabel) and an elder brother, Michael

Katrina Kaif's personal life has always been under the media glare

Katrina Kaif began dating Salman Khan in 2003, but the couple broke up in 2010. They have remained friends, and the actress often credits Salman for guiding her

Katrina Kaif has worked with Salman Khan in several films including Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya, Partner, Yuvvraaj, Ek Tha Tiger, Tiger Zinda Hai and the last one being Bharat

The apparent reason for Salman and Katrina's break-up has been cited as Kat's closeness to Ranbir Kapoor while they were shooting for Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani

In August 2013, photos of Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif holidaying in Ibiza were leaked, which was interpreted as a confirmation of their relationship

Katrina Kaif and Ranbir Kapoor reportedly broke up in 2016. But she reunited with Kapoor on screen for Anurag Basu's Jagga Jasoos
