Beyond his work on screen, Fawakherji’s dedication to his craft was reflected in his personal life. In 1999, he married Syrian actress and director Wael Ramadan, with whom he would collaborate on several projects. The couple has two sons, Hamza and Ali, and for over two decades, their marriage seemed like a partnership grounded in mutual respect for both their personal and professional lives. However, in April 2022, after more than 20 years of marriage, Fawakherji and Ramadan announced their separation, citing differences in their personal lives. Despite the end of their marriage, they remained on amicable terms for the sake of their children, reflecting the mature and respectful approach they both maintained toward their family and careers.
