5. He has a political party

This will be very interesting because he was married to a British socialite, Jemima Goldsmith.
Imran raised money and built a cancer hospital after his mother died from cancer. He then entered politics. Imran is an Oxford educated political scientist. He was captain of the Oxford cricket team.

Jemima and their kids escaped a plane crash after she was involved in charity work among Afghan refugees.
