Former world champion boxer Amir Khan has urged couples to reconsider booking their nuptials at The Balmayna, a luxury wedding venue in Bolton where he serves as landlord.<\/p>\n

The 39-year-old took to social media platform X earlier today to announce he is pursuing legal proceedings against the venue’s operator amid an ongoing rent dispute.<\/p>\n

Khan alleges that Excellency Group, the company managing the four-storey glass-fronted establishment, has failed to make rental payments for close to three years.<\/p>\n

The venue operator has firmly rejected these assertions, branding them unfounded and maintaining that all scheduled events will proceed without disruption.<\/p>\n

The retired pugilist claims that Mohammad Jaberansari, director of Excellency Group which operates the venue, has not fulfilled his rental obligations since an initial 18-month rent-free period concluded.<\/p>\n

In his statement posted on X, Khan wrote: “We advise anyone who has booked the wedding to hold off until this issue is resolved, as I would not want you to risk losing your money or deposits.”<\/p>\n

He added: “We recognise that many individuals have made reservations at the venue, and I regret to inform you that I am taking legal action regarding this situation.”<\/p>\n

The Balmayna responded via Instagram, with a statement declaring: “Amir Khan has no involvement whatsoever in the ownership, management, or operation of Balmayna.”<\/p>\n

The venue characterised the situation as a private matter between landlord and tenant, insisting it is being handled through proper legal channels.<\/p>\n

Excellency Group dismissed the boxer’s public comments as “misinformed, baseless, and should be disregarded,” whilst also describing certain remarks as “malicious” and “defamatory.”<\/p>\n

The company stated it would not be drawn into public disputes or online speculation, affirming its commitment to addressing the matter “lawfully, professionally, and privately.”<\/p>\n

The Balmayna sought to reassure clients that confirmed bookings, events and deposits remain entirely unaffected by the dispute.<\/p>\n
