KUALA LUMPUR: After seven years of marriage, actress Nora Danish and Nedim Nazri have officially agreed to separate.
The divorce proceedings took place at the Federal Territories Syariah Court in Jalan Duta, where Nedim pronounced talak satu (divorce pronouncement) before Syariah Judge Abdul Fattah Datuk Kamarudin at 8.34pm.
In an interview with Berita Harian Online following the proceedings, Nora Danish, whose real name is Nora Mohd Danish Hanif, 42, expressed her hopes for public support and understanding during this difficult time.
"My ex-husband and I have mutually agreed to end our seven-year marriage. It concludes here tonight. Our primary focus now is to raise our children with love and positivity. I hope you will pray for the best for us and our family. I also hope there won't be any speculation about our separation, as we prioritise the harmony of both families and our children," said Nora.
Nedim, whose real name is Mohamed Nedim Mohamed Nazri, 41, declined to comment further.
He attended the proceedings without a lawyer, while Nora was represented by lawyer Ahmad Badri Idris.
The couple arrived together at the court in a black multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) at 7.40pm.
Earlier this year, on April 29, Nora disclosed that their marriage had been going through a rough patch.
She admitted that they were trying their best to manage the situation to avoid any negative impact on their child .
A few days later, Nedim described their issues as mere "manja" quarrels, denying any serious marital troubles.
Nora and Nedim were married on March 30, 2017, and they have a six-year-old son, Mohamed Neqayl.
Nora was previously married to Datuk Rizal Ashram Ramli, also known as Jejai, on June 20, 2006. They have a 15-year-old son, Putra Rayqal, and divorced in 2008.
