Mohamed Carter has responded to rumors of his divorce from Egyptian actress Shaimaa Seif. Seif posted a quote on Instagram that some interpreted as a sign of the couple's separation. Carter responded to the rumors on his Facebook page, writing that the claims of physical, moral, and verbal abuse are false, and that there was no infidelity or customary marriage. He implied that those spreading the rumors were doing so for money or promotional purposes, and accused them of being cheap and untrustworthy. While he had considered suing for defamation, he believed it wouldn't be worth it.
