Amal Hijazi alone again

Lebanese singer Amal Hijazi announced that she broke up with her fiancé after a long secret love affair. The man in Amal’s life was her business manager, Sharbil, but the singer asserted that after their breakup she intends on ending their business relationship as well, and is seeking a new manager.

Rumors claim the reason behind their breakup was that Amal’s family refused to consent to a civil instead of a religious ceremony. Each hoped to have the ceremony according to his or her own faith; Amal is Muslim and Sharbil is Christian, and could not come to terms.

After a long absence from the scenes, Amal plans on releasing a new single “Ba’ed Sineen” (After Years). The singer also plans on filming music video for the song, but has yet to choose a director.

The last appearance by Amal was in the music video “Bitdour Ala Albi” (Searching for my heart) under the direction of Nadine Libky.
