Egyptian artist Hossam Habib opened up about the moment his ex-wife, singer Sherine Abdel Wahab, shaved her head completely, which caused a great deal of controversy among Sherine's fans and followers at the time. Habib explained during an appearance on the program "On Stage" that they had a small problem, Sherine said "divorce me," so Habib said "okay, go get dressed so we can get divorced." Sherine then refused and insisted on finding an official to perform the divorce immediately. Habib said they were up until 3-4 am, during which she went to the bathroom, and as she took some time to come out, he went looking for her and found her bald, which prompted him to fall on his knees in disbelief. Habib admitted during the interview that he bears some responsibility for the failure of their relationship, saying that "just as love is not one-sided, separation and problems happen from both parties." He also stressed that they maintain a good relationship despite the separation, saying "we separated, but we will remain friends, and the love is still there."
