The phrase "secret marriage of artists Karim Mahmoud Abdel Aziz and Dina El Sherbiny" spread like wildfire in the past few hours, fueling renewed speculation amid the absence of any official statements from either party, as questions arise about the nature of their relationship.

These so-called "rumors," unconfirmed and widely circulated on social media, intensified especially after the Egyptian actor’s recent separation from his wife.

Activists suggested that the relationship between the two might be serious and has developed into an official engagement, while others called for respecting their privacy and refraining from sharing news without official confirmation.

The silence of both parties, and the lack of any denial or confirmation, further complicated the situation and expanded the scope of the debate, leading many social media users to believe in the validity of these reports.

It is worth noting that in July, media outlets confirmed Karim Mahmoud Abdel Aziz’s separation from his former wife, fashion designer Ann Al-Rifai, after nearly 14 years of marriage. Sources indicated that the divorce was by mutual consent.

During that period, rumors began circulating about Karim’s involvement with an actress, which contributed to fueling the speculations.

Escalation of rumors

Speculation increased after Karim and Dina appeared together in the film "Al Hana Elli Ana Feh" ("The Happiness I’m In"). News about their relationship spread following the film’s success. Despite Dina deleting all photos of herself with Karim related to the film on Instagram, the rumors resurfaced after the divorce announcement and news of a new joint project titled "Talaqni" ("Divorce Me"), which further amplified talks about a strong relationship that might have reached secret marriage.
