DUBAI: Egyptian-Russian actress Nelly Karim has caused a stir on social media this week after rumors surfaced online saying that she got married.
The star, who is also a ballerina, teased her 5.9 million Instagram followers this week by posting a photo of herself holding an unidentified man’s hand on the beach on her Stories. The picture did not reveal the mystery man’s identity.

Karim, who recently made headlines with the success of her Ramadan series “Bi 100 Wesh,” confirmed on Tuesday to Arabic magazine ET Bilarabi that she got engaged to Egyptian businessman Omar Islam in an intimate ceremony surrounded by close family.
It was reported that the gathering was attended by only four members from each of the couple’s families to comply with the social-distancing rules and regulations set by the Egyptian government to curb the spread of the ongoing coronavirus.
Speaking to Egyptian newspaper Al-Youm 7 this week, Karim said that the picture she posted on her Instagram Story was right after the engagement party. She further revealed that the wedding is expected to take place after the pandemic is over.
The award-winning actress, who is currently on a holiday with her daughters, her mother and her fiance, revealed to ET Bilarabi she is enjoying her time and is not keeping up with the social media rumors.
“I ignore these comments. I don’t care about what people are saying. The most important thing is that I am happy with the love that I am currently living, and I am enjoying my time with my daughters, my mother, my fiance and friends,” the 45-year-old actress said.
Karim got married twice in the past. Her first was at the age of 16, when she had her two sons Karim and Youssef. She then got married to the nutrition expert Hani Abu El-naga and had her daughters Celia and Kinda.
The couple separated in 2015.
Karim is the second Egyptian star to tie the knot in a matter of months. In April, the “Lailat Hana wa Suroor” actress Yasmine Sabri got married to Egyptian businessman Ahmed Abou Hashima in an intimate ceremony in Cairo.
