Soudi Al Nadak, a 26-year-old woman from Dubai, recently shared a video on Instagram that quickly captured widespread attention. In the video, she outlines several “strict rules” imposed by her millionaire husband as part of their lifestyle.
In the clip, Soudi reveals that her husband requires her always to coordinate her bags with her shoes, prohibits her from working as he covers all expenses, and insists that they eat out daily instead of cooking at home. Additionally, she must have her hair and makeup done professionally daily. A notable rule is that she is not allowed to have male friends.
Soudi jokingly referred to herself as “Soudirella” in her post, suggesting she is treated like a princess, albeit within the confines of these rules. The caption accompanying the video read, “Strict rules my millionaire husband has for me in Dubai.”
Since its posting a few days ago, the video has garnered over 52,000 likes and 3.5 million views, sparking a flurry of reactions in the comments section. While some users envied her luxurious lifestyle, others criticized the controlling nature of her husband’s stipulations.
One user commented, “No money can buy happiness. But it’s better to be happy and with money than without, I guess.” Another noted, “We know, your Husband is controlling, doesn’t trust you and doesn’t want you to live a fulfilling life.”
Further comments reflected concern over her autonomy, with one user asking, “But are you allowed to think, have opinions, have a voice in public or anywhere in fact? Being kept and not doing something productive with your life sounds boring. And when he’s done keeping you and divorce, exactly what do you get? Anything?”
These reactions highlight the complex dynamics of Soudi’s disclosed lifestyle, where privilege intersects with personal restrictions.
