It was noted that Kuwaiti media figure Mai Al-Iidan announced on Sunday, via her Instagram account, Asala's marriage to the manager of Iraqi artist Majid Al-Muhandis.
Asala's Fourth Marriage
It is worth mentioning that the Syrian artist was initially married to businessman Ayman Al-Zahabi, and their marriage resulted in a son and a daughter, Khaled and Sham, but they divorced in 2005. She later married director Tarek Al-Arian and had twins, Adam and Ali, but the couple divorced in January 2020 after 14 years of marriage.
Several reports circulated in recent months about Asala marrying an Egyptian parliament member and their separation in July, without official confirmation or denial from her, until Asala announced the news of her latest marriage to the Iraqi poet today.
Groom's Age: 52 Years
It is noted that Faiq Hassan is 52 years old and was first married in 2009 but divorced without children. He has collaborated with many artists throughout his artistic career, and some of his famous songs include "Bain Idayya," "Yemken Ahebak," "Washni Mawt," and "Ana Hanet."
