The two artists, Angham and Asala, met in a television interview with broadcaster Amr Adeeb, and a conversation took place between them about their major dispute that occurred a few years ago.
Asala began the conversation by apologizing to Angham for insulting her, explaining that she had the utmost appreciation and respect for her, and even spoke well of her throughout the period of estrangement between them.
Asala said to Angham, “All of your qualities are sweet, a great and committed mother, and a wonderful and warm friend, and there has never been anyone like you.” “If I did something wrong in the past, I hurt myself first, because I felt uncomfortable because I had upset my friend.”
Angham expressed her gratitude for what Asala said, and ignored Amr Adeeb’s signal to get up and hug her, then began talking about the dispute from her point of view.
Angham explained that the authenticity of a character only comes once in life, noting that the similarity of their upbringing and life circumstances made them very close friends.
She confirmed that the reason for her sadness was because she did not expect her friend to betray her and stab her in the back, which she did not understand. But at the same time, she maintained her respect and appreciation for her.
Angham pointed out that the size of the dispute was as great as her friendship with Asala, but respect will always remain between them.

The two singers’ relationship worsened after Angham’s marriage to music distributor Ahmed Ibrahim in 2019, which angered Asala, who was married at that time to director Tariq Al-Erian, who is the uncle of Ibrahim’s first wife.
Although Angham, Ahmed Ibrahim, and Asala separated from Tariq Al-Erian in 2020, the Egyptian singer rejected all of her former friend’s attempts to resume their relationship.
Asala tried to calm the atmosphere with television statements in which she expressed her good feelings towards her former friend, but Angham responded firmly about the difficulty of accepting an apology, which changed with the last days of 2023, after the organizers of the “Night of Arab Stars” ceremony succeeded in resolving the differences between them, and the differences between them were resolved. The reconciliation between them was in the presence of Elissa and producer Salem al-Hindi, CEO of Rotana, along with musician Hani Farhat.
