Shakib Cham has found himself at the center of controversy after a video surfaced showing him in a seemingly intimate moment with an unidentified woman. The footage, which quickly went viral, depicted the two sitting under a tree, holding hands, and sharing laughter. The incident has fueled speculation about the state of his marriage with Zari Hassan, leading to heated discussions online.
Initially, Shakib attempted to downplay the video, claiming that it was old footage and not a reflection of his current actions. However, Zari Hassan, seemingly caught off guard by the controversy, took to social media with a cryptic post, hinting at her frustration. She wrote, “Men will leave you in the desert with no water. If I introduce another in-law to you, don’t be surprised.”
Realizing the weight of the situation, Shakib issued a public apology, clarifying that the woman in the video was merely an acquaintance.
“Me and that person are not dating; I just know them. I want to apologize publicly because my mistake went public. It wasn’t my intention to disrespect my wife, my family, or my friends,” he said.
This latest scandal is just one of several public incidents that have hinted at tensions within Zari and Shakib’s marriage. Earlier, the couple unfollowed each other on social media and removed photos of one another, raising eyebrows among fans. Their troubles first became apparent when Zari’s ex, Diamond Platnumz, made a surprise visit to South Africa for their daughter’s birthday. The visit reportedly upset Shakib, who felt blindsided.
Zari later addressed the issue in an Instagram Live session, revealing her frustrations about Shakib’s insecurities.
“My husband is very insecure, and that is causing a lot of problems. I have to explain everything. I had to go live just to prove a point.”
She also warned that if Shakib failed to acknowledge her worth, she wouldn’t hesitate to move on.
Adding to the speculation, Shakib recently remarked that he does not expect to have children with Zari due to her age.
“I don’t expect to have kids with her. She’s at an age where having children is no longer feasible. I’m not with her to have kids, but I admire and love her.”
With tensions escalating, fans are left wondering whether the couple can overcome their differences or if Zari will indeed move on as she has hinted.
