Fatima Bhutto recently wed Graham Byra in a private ceremony at her ancestral house in Karachi. Fatima is the granddaughter of the late Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, the ninth prime minister of Pakistan.
Fauzia Fasihudin and Murtaza Bhutto welcomed Fatima into the world in Kabul in 1982. She earned a degree in Middle Eastern Languages and Cultures from Columbia University in 2004 and a Master’s degree in South Asian Government and Politics from the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS) in 2005.
She is an acclaimed writer who has published a number of works, including Whispers of the Desert (1997), 8.50 A.M., 8 October 2005, Songs of Blood and Sword (2010), and New Kings of the World: The Rise and Rise of Eastern Pop Culture.
Fatima Bhutto’s family memoir Songs of Blood and Sword was published in 2010. In the book Bhutto accuses her aunt Benazir and her husband Asif Zardari of killing her father Murtaza. The book got mixed to negative reviews from critics for being biased on the history of her family. Several family members have accused her of falsifying information.
Despite being a private matter, her marriage has aroused a lot of public interest. Fatima Bhutto’s husband Graham Byra hails from Hoboken, New Jersey, and has a Christian upbringing, according to media reports. Although his exact age is unknown, it is assumed that he is between the ages of 38 and 42. Although there is little information on his occupation, some sources imply that he holds a significant position in the corporate world. Graham Byra reportedly converted to Islam and changed his name to Gibran before the wedding.
