Sheikha Mahra shared the announcement on July 16, addressing her husband directly, “Dear husband, As you are occupied with other companions, I hereby declare our divorce. I divorce you, I divorce you, and I divorce you. Take care. Your ex-wife.” Following this post, she also removed all photos of her husband from her Instagram account.
Sheikha Mahra and her husband, Sheikh Mana bin Mohammed bin Rashid bin Mana Al Maktoum, an Emirati businessman, got married in May of last year. In May of this year, they welcomed their daughter. Initially, their joy was evident in a series of photos that Sheikha Mahra posted from the hospital, moments after giving birth. In these now-deleted images, Sheikh Mana was seen by her side, with the newborn resting on her mother's chest. Another photo showed Sheikh Mana holding his daughter, capturing a moment of happiness.
Earlier this year, in February, the couple hosted a gender reveal party, showing their excitement for their upcoming baby. This event was shared with their followers on social media, highlighting a time of happiness in their relationship.
Sheikh Mahra, who is in his 20s, is known for his various business ventures. Despite the positive image they presented, Sheikha Mahra’s recent Instagram post hints at deeper issues in their marriage. Her public and direct approach to announcing the divorce has taken many by surprise, revealing personal and relational challenges.
The public was quick to react to Sheikha Mahra's announcement, with many expressing their support for her during this difficult time. The dramatic and open declaration of divorce has sparked curiosity and speculation about the reasons behind their split, especially given the short duration of their marriage and their recent journey into parenthood.
