ACHRAF Hakimi’s wife has broken her silence to confirm she has separated from the Paris St-German player after he was charged with rape.

Spanish-Tunisian actress Hiba Abouk, 36, took to her Instagram page to update her 1.7million followers telling them that she and her husband were no longer together.

She wrote: “The reality is that a while ago, after a lot of reflection, the father of my children and I made the decision to end our relationship, long before the recent media events that have involved me, which are totally external.”

Abouk also referenced the “pain” and “grief” she experienced due to the separation and the “failure of a family project to which [she] had given [her] body and soul.”

She added she did not imagine in addition to facing the “usual pain that comes with a separation,” she would also have to confront “this shame” as well.

Abouk said: “I needed time to digest this shock.”

And following the rape allegation she is "accelerating" proceedings to separate for good, according to Cierre Digital.

A previous Instagram post shows Abouk walking on a Dubai beach with her two young sons.

She captioned it "Adding moments", and added the hashtags "family first" and one translating as "I'd die for mine".

Madrid-born Hakimi – who plays for Morocco – is known as the north African nation's answer to David Beckham.

In December he became a national hero when his winning penalty against Spain put Morocco through to the World Cup quarter-final for the first time.

He met Spanish actress Hiba while playing for Borussia Dortmund and they married in a secret ceremony in 2020.

Their first son was born that year and another two years later.

In October the A-list couple posed together in a stunning photoshoot in Vogue Arabia.

Hakimi "strongly denies" the rape allegation, his lawyer Fanny Colin said.

She added the decision to investigate him would give him the opportunity to defend himself.

According to Le Parisien, Hakimi had been talking to the alleged victim on Instagram since January 16.

He allegedly paid for an Uber to drive her to his home in a Paris suburb.

She claimed he assaulted her before she was able to free herself by kicking him then texted a friend to pick her up.
