After the former actress and Thai-English model Angie Hastings married Tarik KadDumi (Tarik KadDumi) a Singapore-Kuwaiti businessman in the oil industry, she moved to Kuwait to support her husband and their two sons.
Angie once said that before marrying, she and her husband spent over 18 years proving their love. After marriage, she continued working in entertainment for two more years until her husband told her, “You’re married now, you’re my wife. Why haven’t you moved yet? Why are you still acting?” She hadn’t realized marriage meant moving; she thought marriage was just marriage.
Used to working since she was young, waking early to film dramas, then washing her face and returning home to sleep, repeating this routine daily, her life changed after moving to Kuwait. She relocated to a country that was not her home, surrounded by desert, with no friends, relatives, or parents nearby.
She moved into a large four-and-a-half-story house. When she woke up, her husband had already left for work. There were about 14 to 15 staff caring for her, who called her “Madam.” There was a cook and floor attendants. She felt awkward and lonely, confused about her new role, so she asked her husband to let her work. Since women were discouraged from working there, she had to discuss and explain to him until he agreed.
Contrary to many who see Tarik KadDumi as an oil tycoon, Angie said he works in the oil sector but does not own oil wells.
Recently, with the ongoing worrying situation in the Middle East, Angie posted a video updating the current events at their home, saying:
“Warning sirens still sound intermittently, there is still some gunfire, and rocket fragments have hit nearby houses causing injuries and child fatalities. My children are stressed because they are very sensitive and aware of what’s happening. But we are safe. I just ordered solar panels to charge devices in case of power outages, as a precaution.
We will start packing for emergencies in case we need to evacuate. When people say don’t panic, it’s not panic, but it seems the situation won’t end easily. The airport is still closed, but you can take a bus or drive to the Saudi border. We haven’t thought about evacuating yet; it’s not that severe. No panic.”
