Arab audiences are obsessed with celebrity news, and they are constantly browsing through different social media platforms, waiting for the next big thing to happen.
Besides attending celebrity birthday parties, engagements, and sometimes even divorces, Sada El Balad English (SEE) is also a huge fan of keeping an eye out for marriage proposals.
Here’s a list of Arab celebrities that have announced that they would be getting married in 2021, including Assala Nasry, Nelly Karim, and Menna Arafa.
Assala Nasry, a Syrian musician who is well-known across the world, announced her engagement to Iraqi poet Faik Hassan, 52, in April with an Instagram photo of herself in her wedding gown.
Faik Hassan, a well-known Iraqi poet, married for the first time in his life in 2009 but later divorced his wife since they did not have any children together, whereas the Syrian actress has been married twice before and has four children.
Hisham Ashour, a professional squash player from Egypt, and actress Nelly Karim were married in a ceremony on the shores of the Red Sea.
An intimate wedding ceremony was held for the beautiful couple over the summer months. It’s important to note that they had only known one other for a few months prior to their marriage ceremony, which makes their union all the more remarkable.
Menna Arafa, a young actress best known for her role as Zaina, a little child in the film “Matab Sena’ay,” disclosed this summer that she had tied the knot with Mahmoud Mahdy, a young Egyptian businessman, in the summer of this year. The bride-to-be posted a photo of the wedding ceremony on Instagram, writing, “We were married today with close family and friends in attendance.”
