The Paris Saint-Germain defender Achraf Hakimi’s ex-wife, Hiba Abouk, has disclosed reasons for her silence, following her divorce from the Moroccan footballer.
Abouk said she was calm about the situation despite the rape charges against Hakimi, adding that she needed time to digest the shock.
Recall that Hakimi was accused of rape back in February, and Abouk later disclosed that the couple were in the middle of a divorce as a result.
Speaking to ELLE, Abouk said, “I am fine. There are days when it is like this, and others in which you’ve to know how to take blows and make decisions, sometimes complicated, and get used to new situations. Who would’ve imagined that in addition to facing the usual pain that a separation entails and accepting the grief that the failure of a family project to which I had given myself body and soul entails, I would’ve to face this ignominy. I needed time to digest this shock.
