Hossam Hassan faces legal divorce proceedings from second wife

Hossam Hassan, the head coach of the Egypt national football team, is facing significant personal legal challenges following the official separation from his first wife, Howayda El-Gharbawy, after approximately 30 years of marriage.

His second wife, Dan Adam, has announced her intention to seek a divorce through the courts. Adam expressed frustration on social media, stating that her attempts to end the marriage amicably for the sake of their children were met with rejection. Her lawyer, Mohamed Shams, confirmed that Adam has decided to pursue legal action to end their 11-year marriage.

The dispute follows reports of a physical altercation between Hassan’s wives in the North Coast region. While the lawyer indicated he would attempt to mediate a reconciliation between the couple, the legal process for divorce appears to be moving forward.
