Karim recently announced that she will marry former Egyptian squash player, Hisham Ashour, without holding a wedding ceremony.

She was set to sign on Monday the ‘aqd qiran’ — an Islamic marriage contract is considered an integral part of an Islamic marriage and outlines the rights and responsibilities of the groom and bride or other parties involved in marriage proceedings under Shariah — in a ceremony limited to their families and relatives.

There is an 8-year age range between Karim and Ashour, with the latter being 8 years younger than his bride-to-be.

This will be Ashour's first time to tie the knot and the third for Karim. The actress got married for the first without her family’s knowledge when she was a teenager and gave birth to two sons, Karim and Youssef.

She tied the knot for the second time with doctor Hany Abu Al-Naga. The marriage lasted for 11 years.
