Ruhainies no longer in contact with Aliff Aziz, doesn't want to worsen the issue
Malaysian actress Ruhainies has revealed that she’s no longer in contact with married Singaporean actor Aliff Aziz following the alleged khalwat controversy which marred their reputation.

In an interview with local press on Monday (May 6), Ruhainies, 31, said she doesn’t want to add fire to the issue and wants to focus on her career.

“I’m no longer in contact with Aliff. I don’t want to worsen the issue. I want to close this book.

“There’s no need for me to contact him anymore. My focus now is on my career,” she said.

The actress added that the controversy has persisted for quite some time, and she doesn’t want to prolong it any further.

“When there’s a new statement, I’m afraid there won’t be an end.

“Everyone, including netizens, are already tired because this issue has been going on for nearly two months,” she said.

As for the accusation of conspiring with Aliff to bring down his wife, Malaysian artiste Bella Astillah, Ruhainies refused to comment much on the matter.

“Whose opinion is that? Not mine. I can’t say much. If I deny those claims, people will still say I did it. That is out of my control. I don’t want to say anything else,” she said.

On March 9, Aliff, 33, and Ruhainies were detained by religious authorities under suspicion of khalwat in a condominium in Kuala Lumpur.

Bella, 30, filed for a divorce from Aliff days later, but the Singaporean refused to divorce her during the second hearing on April 4.

The situation worsened when a woman, Sarah Yasmine, claimed to be Aliff’s girlfriend since January.

In a podcast, Aliff said he regretted reconnecting with Sarah. He added that he won’t prolong the divorce process any longer and is ready to let Bella go if it made her happy.

Aliff and Bella, who share two children, married in September 2016.

The estranged couple divorced in 2019 after Aliff was hit with cheating allegations. However, they reconciled in 2020.
The actress also refused to comment much on the accusation of conspiring with Aliff to bring down his wife Bella Astillah.
