Reham called Imran Khan a free-loader as he never bought any vegetables. Instead, he got them free from political colleagues like Jahangir Khan Tareen and Tariq Fazal Chaudhary. [2] [3] Other allegations revolve around corruption of Pervez Khattak and privatization scheme of Asad Umar in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. [3] She also alleged that Khattak used marijuana. [3]
She alleged that Khan had addictions and claimed that Khan possessed drugs like tranquillisers including benzodiazepines like Xanax and Lexotanil. [3]
Regarding Khan's sexual life, she alleged that Khan has gay tendencies. The two most noteworthy males mentioned are Murad Saeed and Hamza Ali Abbasi. [3] The book claims that Khan had a sexual relationship with Uzma Kardar, Andleeb Abbas and transgender model Rimal Ali (which she denied). [4] She wrote that Kardar regularly sexted Khan. [3] She further claimed that Khan told her of a threesome he had in the 1980s with singer Grace Jones and a rock-model. [3] Regarding children, she said that Khan told her that he had five illegitimate children. [3] [5]
Reham also claimed that Khan is a staunch believer of black magic, and practices it at his residence. [6]
A few days before the book was released, actor Hamza Ali Abbasi claimed that he had read a manuscript and criticized the book for being biased. Reham pointed out the fact that the book had been read illegally and claimed that Abbasi had been threatening her. This was followed by a number of accusations and quarrels between the two on Twitter. [7] [8] Reham Khan faced legal challenges from people whom she made sexual claims about. She was sued by her former first husband Ijaz Rehman, former cricketer Wasim Akram, Zulfi Bukhari and Anila Khawaja. [9] Later, Imran Khan said in an interview that his marriage with Reham was his biggest mistake. [10] Reham denies that there are any cases filed against her by saying that those are just social media threats. [11]
Writing for The National , Sonali Kokra reviewed the book thus: "Tell-alls and memoirs, particularly by ex-spouses, are meant to be read as one side of a story, no matter how juicy the revelations are. Reham’s work is intriguing, but I read it with more than a pinch of salt." [12]

General elections were held in Pakistan on 25 July 2018 to elect the members of the 15th National Assembly and the four Provincial Assemblies. The three major parties were Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), led by Imran Khan, the Pakistan Muslim League, led by Shehbaz Sharif, and the Pakistan People's Party, led by Bilawal Bhutto. The PTI won the most seats in the National Assembly but fell short of a majority; the party subsequently formed a coalition government with several smaller parties. At the provincial level, the PTI remained the largest party in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP); the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) retained its dominance in Sindh; and the newly formed Balochistan Awami Party (BAP) emerged as the largest party in Balochistan. In Punjab, the result was a hung parliament, with the Pakistan Muslim League (N) winning the most seats. However, after several independent MPAs joined the PTI, the latter became the largest party and was able to form a government.
