With a long romantic message, and a picture in which they appear together, the Syrian artist, Solaf Fawakherji, announced her separation from her husband, Wael Ramadan.
Through her personal account on “Instagram”, she confirmed that their love will last even following their divorce.
Sulaf Fawakherji considered herself “unworthy of Wael Ramadan,” as she described it, explaining that she tried to be up to the responsibility, which she failed to achieve.
The relationship of “Slav” with “Wael” began two decades ago, in an atmosphere dominated by intense love, which reached the point of madness in a number of situations, especially when the latter asked to marry the first person, so he said to them while standing in front of the door of the house: “Either Accept my marriage to a Slav or leave.”
The intense love that brought the two parties together, did not prevent them from separating 18 years ago, so those interested in artistic affairs at the time woke up to the news of their divorce, in a decision that “did not shock them”, as Slav described in a previous interview.
And regarding this period, the Syrian artist previously recounted: “Separation is a situation that happens with many people, whether they are artists and well-known or not. But the lights shine on us more and this is normal.”
Some attributed the separation of the two lovers to issues related to work within the artistic community, which was denied by “Slav”, explaining that the secret lies in the lack of understanding between them: “The decision to divorce did not come arbitrarily. It is a reality and I adapted to my life following it.”
The first separation between “Slav” and “Wael” came two and a half years following their marriage, in a decision that did not prevent them from loving each other, in a matter that made the “door ajar” to the possibility of them returning to live under the roof of one house once more.
Solaf’s announcement that the lack of understanding was the reason for the divorce, did not prevent some media outlets from broadcasting news at the time, stating that the secret of the separation was the husband’s betrayal of his wife, until she replied categorically: “I do not like this word at all. Wael is a wonderful man.”
And “Slav” continued her defense of “Wael”, during an interview with “Madam”: “We loved each other following the divorce and continued working together in the play (Leshu al-Haki) by the writer Muhammad al-Maghout, and starring Wael and I and directing him even following the divorce ceremony, Wael visited us in home and have lunch with us as usual.”
But following a short period, the two parties were unable to live on their own, so there was an urgent need for them to return to each other, which they felt during their participation in the filming of the “Bokra Sweeter” series in 2005: “Everyone around us in the series encouraged us to return.”
And because their relationship began strangely, the decision to return was on the same degree. Slav said: “We had no prior intention. We used to have fun together as two friends who meet every day at work. We were afraid for each other. And overnight, it was the decision to return.”
Despite the extension of their relationship since their return 18 years ago, the two lovers, Sulaf Fawakherji and Wael Ramadan, separated without introduction, in a scenario similar to what happened in 2004.
Solaf said in her farewell letter to “Wael”: “I read in the conjugation of the word schizophrenia… the handle was torn apart and loosened. His back was split open: split open, the vessel ruptured, split apart: break up and separate.”
And she continued: “I am like that handhold was cut off… and my back cracked… as well as the vessel that breaks and does not separate… Like the rain that took off as a storyteller and scorched burning… and now I live that schizophrenia… before you, noble one… and following schizophrenia… we weaned… as we are weaning.” About our mothers one day.. we wean from those we love.. as we are weaned from you now.. and my heart, as it is said, is torn off.. not in your hand, not in mine.. it is fate.. it draws our lives.. and chooses for us what we do not like.. for some reason, or perhaps wisdom. …and pain in the heart, for sure.”
And the Syrian artist added: “I was not worthy of you enough… I swear that I tried… and I swear that you were worthy of what is beyond love… and I was a child crawling… in front of a mountain… No matter how hard you tried… you will not reach your top… and you were and will remain a man in my eyes… and in front of me.” God and human beings… a man… and men are few… a support for me if I get bored… and a mercy for me if I am wronged… and your tender hand is the first to pull me out if I fall.”
She continued, “As usual, you will not let me need you… because since I knew you, I see you before my request, and you were even ahead of my call… In my weakness and in my joy… Forgive me if I have erred or fallen short one day… and I know that your heart was built on love, generosity and giving… Beginnings are morals… Ends are morals, and you were a beginning.. and you have no end in my heart, mind, life and sentimental… and if we move away… we cannot separate… and if we separate… Wael… my friend… Abu Hamza and Ali,” and concluded: “Thank you to the Day of Judgment… and I love you forever and ever.”
