Rumours about Johor princess' marriage 'malicious and untrue'
PETALING JAYA: The fake news circulating on social media about the status of Johor princess Tunku Tun Aminah Maimunah Iskandariah Sultan Ibrahim's marriage and her links to skincare and slimming products are not true, says the Johor Royal press office.
"The recent spate of rumours circulating on social media regarding HH Tunku Tun Aminah’s marriage to Encik Dennis Muhammad Abdullah being on the rocks are malicious and untrue.
"The Johor Royal family are upset that irresponsible parties are spreading these baseless rumours about their personal lives," the Johor Royal press office said on its Facebook page on Wednesday (Jan 30) night.
Tun Aminah via the Facebook page had said that she was also displeased with the rumours circulating on her marriage and also her alleged business dealings with skincare and slimming products.
“I have also not endorsed any products as written by these unscrupulous people who are out to use my name in order to get attention,” she was quoted as saying.
The Johor Royal press office said complaints have been lodged with Facebook, but have yet to be acted upon.
"The Johor Royal family hopes that immediate action will be taken by Facebook to take down the malicious content, in line with the company’s pledge to ensure fake news is dealt with sternly," it said.
