Syamsul Yusuf's parents address the divorce news
20 Aug – Datuk Yusof Haslam recently stated that he has no knowledge about son Syamsul Yusof's decision to divorce his wife of one and a half years, Ira Kazar.
The Skop Productions founder, who was contacted for comment following the news, stated that he and his wife have not been in contact since Syamsul's second marriage to Ira.
"He didn't even visit the family during Eid. He didn't contact us, so we wouldn't dare to comment since we know nothing about this," he said.
This response was contradictory to his wife Datin Patimah Ismail, who was elated over the news.
"If it's true, I am truly grateful. I hope that Syamsul will return to the right path," she told Harian Metro.
At the same time, she claimed to have already forgiven Ira Kazar and her family for ruining Syamsul and Puteri Sarah Liyana's marriage.
"What's done is done. Their marriage is destroyed, and their kids became the victims," she added.
It was on 19 August that Syamsul's legal rep confirmed that he has filed for divorce from Ira at the East Gombak Lower Court, citing irreconcilable differences.
