'I don’t love Bella in spite of her children, but because of them' - Syed Saddiq
In a moving engagement speech, Syed Saddiq addressed public questions surrounding his acceptance of Bella’s two children, turning the narrative into a powerful affirmation of love, family and commitment.
MUAR Member of Parliament Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman has struck a deeply emotional chord with Malaysians after declaring his love for fiancée Bella Astillah extends wholeheartedly to her children.
In a moving engagement speech, Syed Saddiq addressed public questions surrounding his acceptance of Bella’s two children, turning the narrative into a powerful affirmation of love, family and commitment.
“I don’t love Bella in spite of her children, but because of them,” he said, highlighting that his relationship with the singer-actress is rooted in embracing every part of her life.
The announcement marks a new chapter for Bella Astillah, 32, following a highly publicised divorce from Singaporean singer Aliff Aziz in June 2024.
Her previous marriage, which lasted nearly eight years, was frequently overshadowed by allegations of infidelity, leading to widespread public sympathy for the mother of two.
Syed Saddiq, 33, a former youth and sports minister known for his "Malaysian First" political stance, has generally kept his private life out of the spotlight until now.
By publicly embracing Bella’s children—Mohamad Ayden Adrean and Ara Adreanna—he has challenged traditional social stigmas often associated with marrying single parents.
The couple’s engagement has trended across social media platforms, with many netizens praising the politician for his maturity and Bella for finding stability after a turbulent period in the public eye.
