Hedy Karam Reveals the Toughest Moments of Her Life.. From Childhood Shock to Selling Her Car

The Egyptian artist Hedy Karam revealed details about her personal life, talking about the harsh memories she experienced in her childhood, the behind-the-scenes of her marriage and divorce, in addition to a financial crisis she went through after the separation, confirming that these experiences left a significant impact on her personal journey.

During her appearance on the "Mirror" program last Tuesday evening, Hedy Karam recalled an incident from her childhood when she was four years old, after one of her elderly neighbors died suddenly from a heart attack.

The Egyptian artist said that she placed her head on the man's chest in an attempt to ensure that his heart was still beating, before discovering his death, noting that seeing his corpse left a psychological impact on her and caused her fear of sleeping for fear of sudden death.

Karam also explained that these fears lasted for a while before her father intervened to help her overcome them by discussing and reassuring her until she gradually got rid of those thoughts.

On the other hand, Heidi Karam talked about her marriage and divorce, explaining that she got married at the age of 18, and her husband was 11 years older than her, confirming that the age difference was not the real reason behind the end of the marriage.

While the Egyptian artist attributed the failure of the relationship to her young age and lack of life experience, saying: "My lack of experience and my young age were the real reasons behind the divorce," confirming that she has maintained a good relationship with her ex-husband despite nearly 19 years having passed since their separation.

She pointed out that her ex-husband is still an important person in her life and her family's life, and she wishes him happiness and success, and she does not mind attending his wedding if he decides to marry again.

Heidi Karam revealed a difficult financial crisis she faced after the divorce, coinciding with a period during which she did not receive new artistic roles, which affected her financial situation and forced her to face difficulties in providing for her basic needs.

She explained that the crisis reached a point where she was unable to buy food or afford fuel costs, which ultimately forced her to sell her car to get money and meet her needs during that period.

Karim continued her talk, explaining that her circumstances improved later after she got the opportunity to participate in a series in a leading role for a large fee, considering that what happened strengthened her faith and made her more convinced that what a person plans for themselves may not necessarily be better than what life brings them.

It is worth mentioning that Hedy Karim's latest work is the film "Family Business," which was released during the current summer season, and starred Mohamed Saad, Ghada Adel, Donia Sami, and Salwa Mohamed Ali, and it was directed by Wael Ihsan.
