Remarrying can be daunting, especially when you have a child and wonder whether your new spouse will be able to connect with them. But for Malaysian actor Fattah Amin, those worries have given way to relief and gratitude as his daughter, Fatima, grows increasingly close to his new wife, singer and actress Amira Othman.
The couple, who tied the knot in September, are still adjusting to married life, but Fattah says the transition has been filled with calm, warmth, and joy. Both he and Amira are learning to embrace their new roles in the household while nurturing a harmonious relationship with five-year-old Fatima, his daughter from his previous marriage to actress Nur Fazura.
Speaking to Berita Harian, the 35-year-old actor shared that despite being in the early stages of marriage, life together has been smooth and fulfilling. “We’re newly married, so we’re still learning to adapt. Amira is also getting used to being around my daughter, Fatima. But from what I can see, they’re both really happy together. Our days have been calm and full of joy,” said Fattah.
The actor described his new wife as someone naturally good with children, which has helped her bond easily with his daughter. “Amira loves kids. Even before we got married, I saw how close she was with her nieces and nephews. When she’s with Fatima, the connection comes naturally. Fatima has become very comfortable with Amira’s presence,” he said.
Meanwhile, the 32-year-old actress said that meeting Fatima felt like a blessing. Witnessing Fattah’s relationship with his daughter has deepened her admiration for him as both a father and a husband. “Fatima is very bright and talkative. She’s affectionate and extremely close to her dad. Seeing their bond made me realise how important a father’s presence is in a daughter’s life. Fattah is such a loving father. Now that I’m part of their lives, I just want to bring more goodness into it,” said the star.
When asked about balancing marriage with the demands of Fattah’s busy acting career, Amira said she fully understands and respects his commitments. “I knew what I was signing up for when I married an actor. Fattah’s job can be unpredictable, but I never stop him from pursuing his passion. As long as both partners understand their roles, there shouldn’t be any problems,” she said.
The actress also praised her husband’s patient and calm nature, describing him as the “peacekeeper” in their home. “Fattah doesn’t like to prolong issues. If I get upset, he’s quick to address it and discuss things calmly. He’s a very composed person. I can’t possibly repay all his kindness, but I believe Allah sees everything. I just pray that Allah continues to bless my husband with the best,” she said.
As they continue to build their new life together, Fattah and Amira’s relationship is a reminder that love can grow even after life’s biggest changes. We wish the couple a blissful marriage and perhaps, in time, a little one of their own to complete their family.
