Shakib Lutaaya has shared a unique strategy for maintaining marital harmony with his wife, businesswoman and socialite Zari Hassan. The couple deliberately avoids following each other’s social media activity. According to Shakib, this conscious distance helps protect their peace and prevents unnecessary misunderstandings in their high-profile marriage.
A Deliberate Distance for Understanding
In a recent interview, Shakib explained his reasoning. He acknowledges that Zari, as a public figure, frequently shares opinions on various topics. He chooses not to monitor her statements closely. “I don’t usually follow her statements because she’s a public figure and talks about lots of things,” he said. He emphasizes understanding and avoiding the temptation to misinterpret her public communication.
Proactive Measures to Avoid Conflict
Shakib takes active steps to maintain this boundary. He even deletes messages from others if they contain links or clips of Zari’s content that he prefers not to see. “To avoid all that fracas, it’s better to ignore all that… I delete the chat altogether,” he stated. He finds peace in “blocking, deleting, and not responding.”
A Mutual Agreement for Peace
This arrangement is a two-way street. Shakib confirmed that Zari also does not follow his social media posts, including his activity on Snapchat. This mutual agreement allows both individuals to navigate their public lives without the added pressure of scrutinizing each other’s online personas, creating a private space for their relationship away from the digital spotlight.
