Dr. Jimmy Mohamed has chosen to speak publicly after several months of silence surrounding his separation from his wife, Souailla Mohamed. Married for over 15 years, the doctor and the 38-year-old midwife are the parents of three children. Their separation, previously presented as a private matter, became public when Souailla Mohamed announced she had filed for divorce and claimed to have been the target of harassment for several months.
The 28 last June, She had posted several photos of herself on Instagram showing bruises on her armsIn the text accompanying these images, she said she had been subjected to insults and threats since filing for divorce. She also mentioned infidelities that she attributed to Jimmy Mohamed.
Serious accusations, a response is expected
This wasn't the first time Souailla Mohamed had publicly accused her husband. The situation quickly escalated beyond the family circle, due to Jimmy Mohamed's high profile and frequent media appearances on health issues. This exposure also had repercussions for the media. His scheduled appearance on the 20 PM news on France 2 with Laurent Delahousse has been cancelled.His participation announced for the start of the academic year in The Health Journal, alongside Flavie Flament, also raised questions.
Until now, Jimmy Mohamed had not responded publicly. He explains that he deliberately remained silent to protect his children and avoid turning his separation into a public debate.
Jimmy Mohamed's full message
In a text published on Instagram, the doctor speaks directly and admits to having wanted to keep his private life separate from his public presence.
Here is his full message:
“Today, it’s time for me to speak out. Until now, I had chosen not to expose my private life, because I always considered that I am here to share health advice, and that my personal life should remain private.
Last December, I therefore made the decision not to react and not to speak out in order to protect our three children and to go through this painful separation in private, as so many families do.
Today, I understand that my silence may raise questions. That is why I am speaking out by addressing you directly.
I deeply regret not having been able to protect my family. However, I say this very firmly: I have never used any form of violence against the mother of my children.
I do not wish to turn this personal situation into a public debate. It was simply important for me to state very clearly where I stand.
I thank all the people who have shown me their support.
See you soon.
Jimmy
