The text along with the image reads –“विकीलीक्स ने खुलासा किया है कि राउल विंची शादीशुदा है| इसके 2 बच्चे हैं जो लन्दन में रहते हैं| इसकी बीबी कोलंबियन है| पहली संतान 14 वर्ष का लड़का नियाक है और दूसरी सन्तान माइनक 10 साल की लड़की है| अविवाहित कहकर राहुल गांधी देश को गुमराह कर रहा है”

English translation: “WikiLeaks has revealed that Rahul Gandhi is married. He has two kids who reside in London. His wife is Colombian. His first child is a 14-year-old son Niyak and the second child is 10-year-old daughter Mainak. Rahul Gandhi is misleading the country claiming that he is unmarried”.

Truth

While it’s viral message claims Wikileaks exposed this, it’s no where to be found on Wikileaks.org

SMHoaxSlayer ran a simple google reverse image search and found that the image is that of a Spanish actor and political scientist Nathalia Ramos and is not a Colombian as claimed in the post.

On 14 September 2017, the actor posted a photo in her own Twitter account with Rahul Gandhi. The image is same with the image that went viral with a false claim.

Moreover, in Rahul Gandhi’s affidavit submitted for the Lok Sabha 2019 elections, the spouse section says “Not Applicable.”
Here is the screenshot of the Rahul Gandhi affidavit submitted to CEO Uttar-Pradesh.

Ramos also posted the same image in her Instagram account too.
