Before marrying Parag, Shefali was married to Harmeet Singh in 2004; however, the couple ended up parting ways in 2009. The singer also attended the last rites of his ex-wife. Journalist Vickey Lalwani said, “The fact that Shefali is no more is shattering. I am in Europe.”

A few years after her separation, Shefali met Parag at a dinner gathering hosted by mutual friends. They hit it off instantly and stayed in a hush-hush relationship for around four years. Making things official, the couple finally tied the knot in 2014. They do not have any children but are pet parents to their furry child, Simba.
