  • ‘We decided on divorce at the dinner table’: Hiba Ali opens up about her marriage

    ‘We decided on divorce at the dinner table’: Hiba Ali opens up about her marriage

    Divorce can be a very emotional journey filled with unexpected challenges and personal reflections.

    Recently, actress Hiba Ali appeared as a guest on ‘Fuchsia Magazine’. She talked about the emotional journey of her unplanned divorce, her struggle with depression, and the challenges of her child custody case.

    “For me, it was always unexpected. I wanted to stay with my husband because he was the father of my son, and I hoped for a relationship built on understanding,” said Hiba Ali when discussing her divorce.

    She explained that he was “a good person” but they struggled with understanding each other on basic issues.

    “He was educated, and I considered myself sensible; we couldn’t afford to argue over small things every day,” she explained.

    “We decided on divorce at a dinner table,” she revealed.

    Hiba Ali said she was “shocked” after the custody case as her former husband believed that she had distanced their son from him while he was in Canada.

    “Ultimately, it was our child’s choice whether to communicate with his father or not. We reached a compromise on the custody case outside of court because I didn’t want to give in easily. I told him he would only be wasting his money.”

    However, she feels conflicted about the decision.

    “Looking back, I wonder if marrying was a mistake or if I should not have divorced at all,” she said.

    Hiba Ali is currently starring in the drama serials ‘Shiddat’ and ‘Jaan Nisar.’

    ‘I was harassed by a famous director, but I won’t name him yet’: Nadia Jamil’s shocking revelation

    Nadia Jamil, a veteran actress in the entertainment industry, has revealed that she faced harassment from a prominent Pakistani director. Her brave choice to share her story is likely to encourage others to come forward and seek support.
     
    Recently, Nadia Jamil appeared on Iffat Omar’s show ‘Say It All With Iffat Omar.’ During the interview, she talked about being harassed by a well-known director.
     
    Nadia Jamil said, “I’m very careful about the projects I take on and the people I work with. I’ve been harassed by a famous director in the past, and I’m not willing to put myself in a situation that could be dangerous or uncomfortable. Recently, Naumaan Ijaz (Nomi Bhai) approached me about working on a project, but when I found out that ‘that guy’ was involved, I immediately said no. I just didn’t think it was worth the risk.”


    She went on to say, “I haven’t revealed his name yet, but I believe many girls must have experienced harassment from him. I’m waiting for the right time because I want my sons to grow older. Right now, they’re still too young to handle a situation like this wisely because they’re just angry young boys.”


    During the show, Iffat Omar also shared her perspective on the difficulty of addressing such situations. She said, “I can’t talk about such situations even if they happen for real because they send me court notices.”
     
    Nadia Jamil worked in drama serials such as ‘Jo Bichar Gaey’, ‘Durre Shehwar’, and ‘Damsa, Meray Paas Paas’. Nadia is currently starring in ‘Khushbo Mein Basay Khat.’
