Shami married Hasin Jahan in 2014, and the couple has a daughter. They separated in 2018, and their dispute has been in the courts since then. In 2018 Hasin Jahan filed a police complaint against him, which Shami has denied. In July 2025 the Calcutta High Court ordered him to pay interim maintenance of ₹4 lakh per month – ₹1.5 lakh to his estranged wife and ₹2.5 lakh to their daughter – while the main case continues.
After India's loss to Pakistan at the 2021 T20 World Cup, Shami faced online abuse, and captain Virat Kohli and many cricketers publicly supported him. He is known to his teammates by the nickname "Lala".
