I needed time to digest this shock – Hakimi’s wife, Hiba Abouk speaks out

Paris Saint-Germain defender Achraf Hakimi’s ex-wife, Hiba Abouk, has broken her silence following her divorce from the Moroccan footballer.

According to online reports, Abouk said she was calm about the situation, but she needed time to digest the shock.

Hakimi was accused of rape back in February, and Abouk later disclosed that the couple was in the middle of a divorce as a result.

“Who would’ve imagined that in addition to facing the usual pain that separation entails and accepting the grief that the failure of a family project to which I had given myself body and soul entails, I would’ve to face this ignominy. I needed time to digest this shock,” Abouk is quoted by ELLE Magazine.

“When you separate, you restructure your life, but it’s not anything special either: you’ve to take iron out of the matter. It’s true that, with two children, it is emotionally complicated, but I’m not the first and I will not be the last,” she added.

But she said nothing about the rumours that Hakimi registered a huge part of his wealth in his mother’s name.

Abouk and Hakimi have two children, Amín, aged 3, and Naim, aged 1, together. The pair got married in 2020, two years after meeting in 2018.
