Just weeks after the Malaysia’s King Sultan Muhammad V abdicated his throne following his secret wedding to a former Russian beauty queen, the pair are said to be on the brink of filing for divorce.
Sultan Muhammad married Oksana Voevodina, 25, in November, after a whirlwind romance, with the former Miss Moscow converting to Islam earlier in the year in order to marry the monarch.
Following their lavish Moscow ceremony — which reportedly observed Islamic traditions such as being alcohol free and only serving halal food — the king walked away from his throne to be with his bride.
It was the first time in the country’s history a monarch had quit before completing their five-year term.
But despite the fairytale romance there are reports the couple are on the rocks.

According to The Mirror, the marriage has lasted “just a couple of months”.
“The fairytale about the Russian Cinderella who married a king is likely to be over… preparing the necessary documents is already underway,” the publication quoted Russian newspaper Tolko Nikomu as reporting.
“The marriage lasted just a couple of months.”
The report also states another news site from Oksana’s home country are claiming they’ve “decided to divorce”, citing another that claimed the newlyweds are having “frequent rows”.
However, the bride’s dad reportedly called the claims “nonsense”.
Surgeon Andrey Gorbatenko said: “It’s nonsense. I do not read the internet but I would have been the first to know.”
The pair — who have a 25 year age gap — are also said to be “expecting” their first child together.
While the rumours of the pregnancy have not been confirmed, it was suspected that it played a part in the king’s sudden abdication in January 2019, which followed two months of medical leave.

In a statement at the time, the palace said the king was grateful for the opportunity given to him by the Council of Rulers and thanked the Prime Minister and government.
The statement in full read: “His Highness has worked towards fulfilling his responsibilities entrusted to him as the head of state, serving as a pillar of stability, source of justice, the core of unity … for the people.”
It is not known how the pair met and it is unclear if she has been married before.
The palace did not respond to requests for comment on the photos or reports of a marriage.
Previous newspaper reports of Oksana on a reality TV show her taking part in a steamy scene in a swimming pool.
Pro-Kremlin newspaper Komosomolskaya Pravda reported the “royal wife” clutched a champagne glass as she “surprised the participants of a reality show by having sex on her first date”.
The New Straits Times reported there had been tensions between the palace and the government of Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad, who led the opposition to an election win in May.
