Her innocent features, and her charming beauty, put her most of the time in the framework of the poor, innocent, loving, sympathetic and often overpowered girl.
Faten tried to rebel once morest this artistic framework, especially following the fifties, so she embarked on a creative journey during which she presented to the cinema more than a hundred works of art, of which 18 films were selected in the list of the 150 best films in Egyptian cinema, and Faten Hamama was chosen as the best actress.
Faten Hamama’s personal life was the focus of her fans’ attention, and it is remarkable that the name of the artist Omar Sharif was issued alone as the only man in her life, but this belief is not true, as she married once before and following her separation from him also married once more.
Long life marriage, thus we can call the marriage of Faten Hamama to Dr. Muhammad Abdel Wahab, who she has always described with sophistication and taste, “a true gentleman,” the best of her ten years, and their marriage lasted since 1975, that is, one year following her separation from Omar Sharif, until her death in 2015.
The artist Samira Abdel Aziz, who was united by a friendship with Faten Hamama, following the series Conscience of Abla Hekmat brought them together, said that Faten loved Dr. Mohamed Abdel Wahab, and treated him as an authentic Egyptian woman, stressing that her love for Omar Sharif ended in separation.
