Yasmin Abdelaziz and Ahmed El-Awady end their marriage after three years
Egyptian actress Yasmin Abdelaziz and actor Ahmed El-Awady have announced their divorce on Instagram, shocking their fans and followers.
The couple, who got married in 2021, posted the same statement on their accounts, saying that they have officially ended their marriage and that they have mutual respect and appreciation for each other.
The divorce comes after months of speculation and rumors about their relationship, which they both denied repeatedly. Some media outlets claimed that they had separated before Abdelaziz’s health crisis in 2021, when she underwent surgery for a ruptured ovarian cyst and was hospitalized for several weeks. El-Awady was by her side during her recovery, but he did not accompany her to Switzerland, where she traveled for further treatment.
The couple also faced a controversial prediction by a Lebanese astrologer, Laila Abdellatif, who said that they would split up in 2024 or 2025. They both mocked her forecast at the time, but it seems that it has come true sooner than expected.
Abdelaziz and El-Awady met on the set of the series Elly Malouche Kabir (The One Who Doesn’t Have a Master), which aired in 2020. They fell in love and tied the knot in a private ceremony in Cairo. They starred together in several other projects, such as the movie 30 March and the series Al-Malek (The King), which is currently airing on MBC.
The divorce has sparked mixed reactions from their fans, some of whom expressed sadness and disbelief, while others wished them happiness and peace. Many celebrities also commented on their posts, offering their support and sympathy. Abdelaziz and El-Awady have not revealed the reason behind their decision, but they asked for respect and privacy from the media and the public.
