The Nobel Peace Prize winner previously shared that she was not sure whether she would ever get married in her cover interview for British Vogue’s July 2021 issue.
“I still don’t understand why people have to get married,” she said at the time. “If you want to have a person in your life, why do you have to sign marriage papers. Why can’t it just be a partnership?”

Born in Mingora, Pakistan, Yousafzai was 15 when a Taliban gunman boarded her school bus and shot her in the face in 2012. Afterwards, she was airlifted from Pakistan to Birmingham, England, where she made a miraculous recovery.
Despite the injury, she never stopped fighting for girls education, going on to win the Nobel Peace Prize at the age of 17.
Malala Yousafzai is also a bestselling author and the co-founder of the Malala Fund, which invests in education programs to help girls go to school and reach their full potential.
