  "account": "KUALA LUMPUR: Singer Kaka Azraff, whose real name is Nor Atiqa Noor Azraff, disclosed that she underwent therapy two years ago to overcome marital troubles and her emotional distress. At 37, she sought help independently after facing hardships that left her feeling broken and blaming herself. Describing the situation as a world grinding to a halt, Kaka claimed her family was unaware of her therapy sessions during Ramadan, while close friend Shalma Ainaa knew. After three sessions, she felt her spirit recover. Realizing her previous neglect of self-care, Kaka acknowledged the importance of prioritizing herself to provide the best for her children. Alongside therapy, singing proved therapeutic, acting as an emotional outlet and a break from depression. Kaka and former husband Adam Azriff divorced twice, with their latest separation occurring in June. They remarried on December 14, 2018, and have three sons together.",
