An Egyptian woman has demanded a divorce on the grounds that her husband’s jealousy over Tamer Hosni is out of control. 

Heated disputed broke out between the couple over the singer, after the husband tore up all of her posters of Tamer and discarded of all his albums.  The two eventually decided to reside apart.

The wife claims she did not know the extent of her husband’s jealousy.   She listened to Tamer's music for hours and is wearing black as a sign of mourning for Tamer who is serving a jail sentence. She refused to remove the black attire, stating that she will do so only when Tamer is set free.

Tamer released his new album “Enaya Bethebbak” (My Eyes Love You) earlier this month, and it has already made its way to the top of the charts in Egypt, Kuwait and UAE.

The album includes 13 Egyptian pop tracks, including the single and video "Enaya Bethebbak."  The head of the Arabic department at EMI has acclaimed the album as one of best so fat this year.   

Bahaa El Din Mostafa, Mohamed Yehia, Nasr Mahroos, Mohamed Hamed, and Abeer El Razaz are amogst those who contributed to the album, and several tracks were co-written or composed by Tamer.

While the world is celebrating the success of Tamer’s album, he is still serving time in jail.
