#SHOWBIZ: Najwa Latif: 'As long as my hubby thinks I'm beautiful, that's all that matters'

KUALA LUMPUR - Singer-songwriter Najwa Latif has dismissed recent online backlash regarding her weight gain, emphasizing that her husband's affirmation of her beauty is what truly matters to her. The 31-year-old, known for her hit song "Cinta Muka Buku", revealed that her husband Akwa Arifin has been a stabilizing force in her life, encouraging her to overlook negative opinions.

Akwa regularly reminds Najwa that she is beautiful and to disregard toxic comments. While social media comments do hurt her feelings, her husband's words of reassurance provide her immense comfort. Describing Akwa as her "pillar of strength," Najwa shared that he keeps her grounded and positive when she is feeling down. He is always there to offer support, whether through a listening ear or a comforting presence.

Beyond his emotional support, Najwa praised her husband for his role at home and as a devoted father to their one-year-old daughter, Medina. Akwa is hands-on with household tasks and is often seen singing their daughter to sleep. The couple, who married in November 2022, welcomed Medina last year.
