The great Egyptian artist Rashwan Tawfik and his family will appear in a special episode of the program "One of the People" at 10 PM today Cairo time on Al-Hayah channel with Dr. Amr El Lathy. The episode will reveal private secrets and behind-the-scenes aspects of the esteemed star's life, including love and marriage. He will also discuss the death of his father, his deep attachment and love for him, as well as a vision he had before his father's passing.
The episode will cover his relationship with his family, daughters, and grandchildren. He will reveal his sorrows and the biggest tragedy in his life concerning his youngest daughter, who filed a lawsuit against him in court, expressing his sadness and emotional distress during the episode. Rashwan Tawfik stated, "I have lived my whole life for them, and I would give all the money I earned to my late wife, who was the one providing me with spending money. She supported me in life and after her death. I own nothing in my name except for my mobile phone and the landline at home; I have given my children everything."
The prominent artist continued, "After the death of my son Tawfik, I took care of his only daughter. I never kept anything for myself; I lived for my children. However, after my wife passed away, I was recently shocked by lawsuits filed by my daughter's husband and my grandson against me, influenced by financial disputes and an attempt to control what I own, even though I've never deprived them of anything during my working life. This is the biggest tragedy I have ever experienced."
The artist sadly noted, "They are trying to destroy the house of love I have built all my life. Despite all this, I feel pity for my daughter Ayah because she is simple and kind, and perhaps she was influenced into filing lawsuits against me. I pray for her health and guidance."
Rashwan Tawfik concluded, "What is happening to me now reminds me of the story of Othello by Shakespeare and the honest Iago that I portrayed on stage, as well as the story of King Lear, and what happens to people due to absolute trust in individuals who do not uphold it."
