Love Is Blind Habibi star Hajar has surely made heads turn as mentioned in her bio, but the reason is not just her fashion choices. The 29-year-old Project Manager from UAE got engaged to Simo in the pods. However, the couple did not last long, and parted ways from their vacation in Dubai. Simo left the show without informing Hajar, and she was informed by the team of the show, once he was gone.
Hajar called him a coward and expressed that she did not deserve her. Fans have criticized Simo's behavior on social media platforms and called him a red flag. On the contrary, some fans believed that Hajar was delusional and had unreasonable expectations from his future partner. Fans called her out on her actions, especially pointing out the way she behaved with a waitress during a date in the show.
One fan took to X and wrote:
"Hajar is DELUSIONAL. 10/10 great television #loveisblindhabibi"
Another fan commented:
"She was right! They drove each other mad."
One fan directly pointed out her incident with the waitress in Love Is Blind Habibi and said:
"Hajar being rude to the waitress is a valid reason for Simo to want to leave her tbh. Having no manners at her big age is embarrassing #LoveIsBlindHabibi"
Another fan wrote:
"Hajar is such a mean girl. Why was she rude to the waitress?! #LoveIsBlindHabibi Good on Simo for calling her out."
One other comment reads:
"Hajar disrespecting the waitress was very off-putting. I understood why he left but should have told her to her face that he was leaving. #LoveIsBlindHabibi"
Another fan said:
"I was rooting for Hajar till the restaurant scene. I can’t stand people with no manners #LoveIsBlindHabibi"
However, few fans supported Hajar and wished that she should have not entertained Simo in the show. One fan wrote:
"Simo is insufferable the way he spoke to Hajar and she’s the one apologizing girl STAND UP #LoveIsBlindHabibi"
Another fan wrote:
"Ok, seriously hope Sima calling Hajar a “clumsy, foolish girl” during his proposal was lost in translation. This guy is an ass. #LoveisBlindHabibi"
Another fan said:
"She didn’t support me???? Did he want Hajer to be holding him back from the fight like Ammar was? Why would she get involved in men fighting each other? He’s such a diva #LoveIsBlindHabibi"
Why did Simo leave Love Is Blind Habibi without informing Hajar?
Love Is Blind Habibi stars Simo and Hajar bonded over their Moroccan roots, and got engaged in the pods. However, when Chafiq and Simo got into an ugly fight in episode 4, Hajar stood unbothered, as she was angry with Simo. Earlier, in episode 4, Hajar was upset that Simo intervened in her issue with Noor, which did not sit well with her.
When Chafiq and Simo got into a tussle, many other fellow castmates came to calm Simo down. But, Hajar stood with Noor, as she did not want to go and talk to Simo. In episode 5 of Love Is Blind Habibi, Simo was disappointed with Hajar and told the cameras that he could not be with someone, who was unbothered by his problem. Therefore, Simo decided to leave the show and called off the engagement. Hajar was informed by the crew of Love Is Blind Habibi that he had left.
Hajar told the cameras that it was Simo's loss. Also, the audience got to see a flashback from a previous episode, in the pods, where Hajar mentioned that walking away without a reason was a big no for her. So, she decided to walk out and said:
"This to me is childish. It shows he is not ready for the responsibility."
Fans can go and watch Love Is Blind Habibi on Netflix and Netflix MENA. The show premiered on October 10, 2024.
