Who Is Kasim Khan?
Kasim Khan is Imran Khan's second son with Jemima Goldsmith who was born on April 10, 1999 in England. Imran Khan and Jemima's marriage ended in 2004 after nine years of being together. The marriage produced two sons, Sulaiman Isa who was born on November 18, 1996 and Kasim Khan.
Jemimah returned to England after the divorce with their two sons. Imran Khan reportedly described the six months of the divorce process and the six months after as the hardest year of his life.
