KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 10 ― After causing a social media storm with his second marriage announcement last Friday, local director Syamsul Yusof has broken his silence.
Taking to his Instagram, the Mat Kilau director posted a couple of new entries with one being a short clip of a sunset by the beach with Billie Holiday’s Solitude playing in the background.
While the other post is a much more forthright approach where he shared a photo of himself along with separate photos of him and both of his wives, actress-model Puteri Sarah Liyana and Ira Kazar, the daughter of veteran actor, Kazar Saisi, on their big day.
He also left a message for his wives.
“Morning! May both of my wives stay calm and patient. Pray for the best,” Syamsul wrote in the post.
His post garnered support from his followers and fellow celebrities including actors Afdlin Shauki and Soffi Jikan.
“InShaAllah everything is going to be okay,” commented Afdlin Shauki.
“Aamin Alhamdulillah,” commented Soffi Jikan.
“Chill and steady boss. Calm is good,” commented user megatshahzhul.
Previously, Syamsul made headlines after announcing that he has wedded Ira in Thailand last Friday.
Local social media feed was abuzz following the surprise announcement with Syamsul's name even going on the trending list on Twitter that day.
It was previously reported that Syamsul’s marriage with Sarah had some issues over the last four years but it was never confirmed by the actor-director himself.
Syamsul and Sarah had tied the knot back in March 2014 and were blessed with two children.
