Syrian artist Asala Nasri revealed for the first time the reason for her separation from her ex-husband, director Tarek Al-Arian, during her latest interview on the program "Hebr Sari." She stated, "The real reason is the person himself; he is the cause, not other people. We have no relation to outsiders, whether they are extras or otherwise."
She added, "I don’t know how many times I have been betrayed. The first time, I didn't know what to do in that situation, and I ignored it because I didn't know how to respond." Asala continued, "The bond between me and Tarek Al-Arian has been broken, and there is no longer life between us. I was very hurt... We have sweet days, children, and successes that we need to remember alongside the harsh things I lived through."
Regarding claims that a Syrian actress was the cause of the divorce, Asala said, "These are intrusions from many intruders, not just one." She responded that the first letter of her name is "N" and that she does not believe this person is an actress, asking not to continue discussing the matter.
Many followers speculated that Asala Nasri was referring to Syrian model Nicole Saafan after she responded that she does not consider the person to be an actress when asked by the host if a Syrian actress was the reason for her separation.
Asala addressed the rumors of marriage and divorce that follow her, saying, "I have been married thousands of times; I have three marriages: Ayman, Tarek, and Faiq. When rumors arise, people say Asala got married, not that it's my friend; this is considered respect, even if it falls under the rumor category."
Nicole Saafan responded, "Thank you for your words, my dear. I just want to say that I have nothing to do with their divorce. They divorced because he was very unhappy and there were many problems between them. I was never with Tarek while they were married."
Asala advised her ex-husband Tarek Al-Arian to pay more attention to their children, Adam and Ali, saying during the second part of her episode on "Hebr Sari" with host Asmaa Ibrahim on Cairo and the People channel, "To the father of Adam and Ali, I say pay more attention to the children and give them a bit more of your time; perhaps he is in a transitional stage that makes him fall short in some duties."
