Prominent Pakistani TV actress Zoya Nasir has recently called off her engagement to German vlogger Christian Betzmann. The decision seemingly came after Christian’s insensitive religious remarks on Israel's atrocity in Palestine caused uproar on social media.
The social media influencer further made mocking statements for Pakistan as a 'third world country' and how the 'prayers can't do anything' which did not sit well with Internet users.
Taking to her Instagram, the Deewangi famed actress wrote, “It's with a heavy heart I'm announcing that Christian Betzmann and I are no longer engaged to be married. His sudden change in stance towards my culture, my country, my people and insensitivity towards my religion has lead me to take this difficult and irrevocable decision.”
“There are certain religious and social boundaries that can’t be crossed no matter what, hence, the decision to part ways,” she said.
“Humility, Tolerance and Respect towards each other are the virtues that we must always adhere to. I look upon my Allah to provide me with the strength to deal with this worldly emotional wreck.”
Nasir, however, wished Christian a bright and happy future.
“I sincerely request for space and privacy for myself and my family as we begin to navigate this emotional turmoil,” she concluded.
Nasir and Christian got engaged in February, a month after he announced he had converted to Islam.
