The soccer season 2023-24 has kicked off with a whirlwind of emotions for Moroccan superstar Achraf Hakimi and his team PSG, who are yet to secure their first win in the Ligue 1. However, amidst the chaos, Hakimi’s estranged ex-wife and Spanish actress Hiba Abouk has been causing quite a stir with her recent appearance on the cover of a popular magazine.

The past few months have been filled with turmoil for the former couple. Following rape accusations against Hakimi, Abouk filed for divorce. The battle between the two intensified when she demanded half of the left-back’s net worth, only to discover that all the assets were in his mother’s name. This shocking incident sparked widespread interest, and since then, both Abouk and Hakimi have been making headlines. Amidst the controversy, the actress has managed to achieve significant milestones.

Accompanying the picture, Abouk wrote a heartfelt caption saying, “COVER GIRL,” with a star emoji. She then went on to explain the significance of the September month saying, “September has always been my favorite month”.  The 36-year-old further added, “Allow yourselves to dream, and make your dreams a reality”.

InStyle magazine’s decision to feature Abouk on the cover reflects her widespread appeal and influence. This serves to reinforce her earlier bold claim of being more popular than her ex-husband Achraf Hakimi.
