The dramatic confrontation reportedly unfolded in a hotel café and left holidaymakers shocked as the two women became involved in a hair-pulling fight.

Dramatic Hotel Confrontation
According to reports, tensions between Hassan’s two wives escalated while the Egypt manager was enjoying a break at the popular resort.
What reportedly began as a verbal disagreement eventually turned physical, with the two women allegedly getting involved in a hair-pulling brawl inside the hotel bar.
The confrontation reportedly took place in front of other holidaymakers and hotel guests, turning what had been a relaxing getaway into a highly publicised family dispute.
Relatives are said to have intervened as the situation became increasingly heated.
Hotel security was eventually called to bring the confrontation under control.
Reports claimed that both women suffered cuts and bruises during the altercation.
Hassan Collapses While Intervening
Hossam Hassan reportedly attempted to intervene and stop the confrontation between the women.
However, the stress of the situation allegedly became too much for the veteran football coach, who reportedly fainted while trying to prevent the fight from escalating further.
The incident naturally sparked concern among those present, particularly because of Hassan’s high-profile position as Egypt’s national team manager.
News of the reported collapse quickly circulated, with some reports suggesting that the coach had suffered a serious medical problem.
However, those claims were later disputed by his legal representative.
Lawyer Denies Serious Health Crisis
Hassan’s lawyer reportedly denied rumours that the football coach had suffered a major medical crisis.
According to the lawyer, the Egypt manager remains in good health despite reportedly fainting during the confrontation.
The clarification was apparently intended to reassure fans that Hassan was not suffering from a serious medical condition following the incident.
The reported collapse, however, added another dramatic twist to an already tense situation.
Divorce Reportedly Follows Dispute
In the aftermath of the confrontation, Hassan is reportedly said to have taken steps to formally end his marriage to his first wife, Howaida Al-Gharbawi.
Reports claim that the Egypt coach signed divorce documents at a legal registrar’s office in Cairo.
The reported divorce would bring an end to a relationship that had lasted for many years.
The development has attracted considerable attention because of Hassan’s prominent position in Egyptian football and his long association with his first wife.
However, details surrounding the couple’s private relationship remain largely based on reports surrounding the incident.
Hassan’s Previous Separation
This is reportedly not the first time Hassan and Howaida have experienced difficulties in their marriage.
The couple previously separated for a short period in 2022.
According to reports, their earlier separation lasted approximately 10 days before they reconciled and resumed their relationship.
The pair subsequently continued their marriage, despite the earlier difficulties.
The latest reported dispute, however, appears to have resulted in a more permanent decision.
Hassan is now said to have formally ended the marriage following the latest confrontation.
Egypt Coach Faces Personal Drama
The reported incident comes at a time when Hassan remains an important figure in Egyptian football.
As head coach of the Egypt national team, his professional responsibilities require him to remain focused on preparing the team for major international competitions.
The alleged hotel confrontation has therefore generated significant interest beyond the football world, particularly because of the unusual circumstances surrounding the reported dispute.
While reports have focused heavily on the confrontation and subsequent divorce, Hassan’s lawyer has maintained that the coach is in good health.
The reported incident also highlights how quickly private family disputes involving high-profile public figures can attract widespread attention when they occur in public places.
For now, the biggest developments surrounding the story are the reported confrontation at the hotel, Hassan’s alleged collapse while attempting to intervene, and reports that he subsequently signed divorce papers ending his marriage to Howaida.
Further details about the incident and the reported divorce could emerge as the story develops.
