“My Husband’s First Wife Gave Me Pocket Money”: Actress Asma Abbas Reveals Unconventional Bond

In a revealing and heartfelt interview, veteran Pakistani actress Asma Abbas has opened up about the unique and profound relationship she shared with her husband’s first wife, challenging common stereotypes about polygamous households.

Speaking with her niece, Nareeman Ansari, the respected actress shared that from the very beginning, she chose to approach the relationship with empathy and respect. “I saw her as a woman, just like myself,” Asma explained. She was mindful that the first wife was both younger and beautiful, had been married for twelve years, and had endured emotional struggles, including not having children.

Choosing compassion over conflict, Asma Abbas intentionally nurtured a positive bond. For twelve years, the two women lived together in the same house, sharing clothes and jewelry, shopping together, and caring for one another deeply.

In a remarkable revelation, Asma disclosed the financial dynamics of their household: “I used to give her the household expenses, and she would manage the home. From that same money, she would give me pocket money.” She added that she willingly offered the master bedroom to the first wife, following her around “like a Laila,” out of immense love and respect.

Their bond was so strong that Asma always prioritized the first wife, even giving her the front seat in the car. She noted with a smile that her husband would sometimes feel jealous of their close friendship and never dared to scold her in front of the first wife. They addressed each other with the respectful term “Sunn” instead of using names, which Asma considered the highest form of honor.

Asma Abbas expressed contentment and peace with her choices, believing that everything was part of a divine balance. She finds fulfillment in having treated her husband’s first wife with unwavering kindness until the latter’s passing and is grateful for the family and children she now has.

The interview has gone viral on social media, with widespread praise for Asma Abbas’s maturity, emotional intelligence, and the inspiring example of respect and solidarity she set between co-wives.
