Egyptian actress Naglaa Fathy's husband's nameplate was stolen from the entrance of their building. The nameplate, which read "Here lived Hamdy Kandil," had been hanging there for years. Fathy's daughter filed a report after the theft, and Fathy herself sent a request to the Minister of Culture to quickly install a new nameplate in honor of her late husband. Fathy has been absent from the media due to a serious health crisis and the death of her husband. Fathy began her acting career at the age of 15 and appeared in several films throughout her career. She has been married several times and has one daughter, Yasmin.
