Why would a 35-year-old woman marry a man 40 years her senior? Ask actress Sarah Tarek, who tied the knot to Egyptian artist Saeed Tarabeek on Saturday, August 15, reported Al Jaras Magazine.
Sarah looks older than her mid thirties, but does that make it "OK" to walk down the isle to someone her daddy's age?! Not that it didn't end up in divorce, but it's not like Hollywood star Katie Holmes didn't marry Tom Cruise when he was 16 years her senior!
Nonetheless, social media users were outraged by the stars' decision, noting that the age gap is OTT, while wondering why Saeed would want to remarry at his old age! Love knows no age, you guys!

The newlywed's friends and family looked happy in Sarah's wedding photos, but we couldn't help but notice a hint of disapproval on their faces.
As for the bride, she was over the moon, saying, "Today is the happiest day of life. I love you my darling."

In an interview on Nile TV's "Nojoom Bukra" (Rising Stars) a couple of years ago, Sarah praised Saeed and spoke of her pride after working with him on several productions, according to Alwafd news. Could that have been the time when romance blossomed for the couple? Either way, congrats to the newlyweds!
