Lebanese media personality Faten Moussa issued a new statement regarding the behind-the-scenes details of her absent divorce from star Mostafa Fahmy. She indicated that she still respects their shared history and that she carried the name of a husband who did not appreciate this and divorced her without her knowledge or any mutual understanding. Faten hinted that throughout the past days, she has been careful not to disclose the reasons for the divorce, and she hopes she will not have to reveal secrets of her private life.
Faten issued a lengthy statement responding, as usual, to repeated inquiries about the reasons for the divorce. She also reacted to advice from her followers to keep her personal life away from social media, issuing a subtle warning to her ex-husband Mostafa Fahmy. She stated on her Instagram account: "In short, those who write or wonder if Mostafa Fahmy did this—despite being wrong in the manner which lacks any sense of respect for our shared time, love, or the sanctity of married life and the secrets within, as he claimed—his actions are wholly unforgivable (thank you very much), due to issues and residues, and there are surely reasons."
She continued: "There is no married life between any couple devoid of life problems, perhaps daily ones, and no one is infallible except prophets. However, as long as the couple persists and coexists, it means there is at least a solid foundation from the wife's side, who is the weaker link in the relationship, providing trust in him as he is the dominant man in decision-making and the captain of the ship, seen by all as a loving, continuous, happy cohabitant."
She added: "As for harboring intentions of betrayal and abandonment, providing her with safety and love until the last moment to shock her with his actions and an absent divorce, he hastened to announce it and share it on social media before she could recover from the shock or discuss the matter with her or her rights and how she would continue thereafter, and also through his lawyer! There is no human code in the universe that justifies this, no matter the reasons, even if we were in the context of a war."
Faten stated: "I did not post about our life on social media except for all that is good, elegant, and beautiful that reflects love, authenticity, and giving. I am a reaction to an act committed against me... I responded to his loud statement announcing the absent divorce as if it were (a trend or scoop), confirming that we were on good terms and in utmost harmony in the separation! I responded to his subsequent statement implying that I was playing the victim, which is the opposite of the truth! And that he would not object to giving me my rights! He will only discuss the secrets of the divorce if he is compelled to do so! This also indicates a veiled threat from him! Anyone who does that can do much more."
She concluded her statement by saying: "In this regard, I state that I remain reserved about expressing or indicating or delving into the personal reasons between myself and Mostafa, which he has evidently deemed permissible to justify such a shocking act against me without facing, or any appreciation for the years of companionship, love, loyalty, and the trust I carried in his name and the sanctity of our shared life and the sacred marriage bond between us as ordained by God and His Messenger. If it truly became impossible for us to continue together suddenly as he stated, it would have been preferable for him to separate with kindness, goodwill, and respect for our shared love and in a way that pleases God and His Messenger, and to align with the value of both parties’ worth—especially that of the woman who carried his name for years. Endings also reflect principles and ethics... unless I was also forced to do so, unfortunately."
