Ahmed Ezz to Pay EGP 28,000 to Zeina

The Nasr City Family Court ruled Saturday that Egyptian actor Ahmed Ezz to retroactive pay EPG 25,000 for the house rent of his former wife, actress Zeina.

The court also obligated him to pay monthly child support of EGP 3,000, from the period December 13, 2017, to date.

The former couple has been in a legal battle since 2014.

Zeina married Ezz on June 15, 2012, in the presence of her family and then they traveled to the USA to document the marriage in the Egyptian consulate.

The problem began when the actress returned from the United States to Egypt in January 2014 with twin boys, Ezzeddine and Zineddine, announcing they are the sons of Ezz.

“I gave birth in October in the US, and in the meantime, Ahmed Ezz’s father got ill, so he had to go to Egypt, and the agreement was that he would come to the US again to pay the costs of childbirth and the hospital, and he did not come, so I decided to get separated from him,” she said in a 2020 interview.

Zeina revealed that when he learned about this he decided not to pay the costs, which was followed by the crisis of the claiming ​of her sons by her husband.

Ezz denied the claims so she asked for a DNA test to verify her claims. The actress filed a lawsuit in May 2014 saying the pair wedded in June 2012 through a customary marriage (orfi).

In 2015, the Cairo family court ruled in Zeina’s favor of registering the boys to Ezz being the biological father after he refused to do the test.
