Jalila Al-Maghribi Claps Back at Basma Bousil: "Ungrateful... I Wished for Your Life" - Jordan News
Moroccan social media influencer Jalila launched a fierce attack on Moroccan singer Basma Bousil following the latter's recent remarks about her ex-husband, Egyptian star Tamer Hosny. Basma had stated that her love for Tamer "destroyed her" and that she had regained her freedom after their divorce. اضافة اعلان Jalila, who previously claimed to have had a romantic relationship with Hosny, responded by saying: "The life you were willing to end yourself for, I wished to live it with the only man I have loved for 13 years." She added in a post on her social media accounts: "No matter the problems, circumstances, or pain, one should never forget the years spent together and the good times, nor be ungrateful." Jalila continued: "A piece of advice—take it or leave it. Today, I am at peace with you, and I am not attacking you. But one should never belittle the person who elevated them or forget their kindness, especially if he is the father of your children." She concluded: "As for my feelings and emotions, I will say only one thing: Some details can only be shared with God." Jalila had previously revealed details about her alleged past relationship with Tamer Hosny, which stirred controversy between him and Basma. She claimed they had been in love for 11 years before his marriage, saying: "The day before Tamer married Basma Bousil, I was with him. I don't know how things happened, but I had a love story with him for 11 years. It wasn't shameful or forbidden, and I was not a homewrecker. My relationship with him didn't end after his marriage, and I had to defend myself when my reputation was attacked, and my family got involved." These claims had previously caused tension between Tamer and Basma, nearly leading to their separation before they officially divorced later on.
