Ashanty denied rumors that she evicted Azriel Hermansyah from her home, clarifying on October 2, 2026, that circulating social media videos showing her in tears actually stemmed from the closure of her business, Lumiere, rather than any family dispute, hot.detik.com reported.
Ashanty Denies Eviction Rumors and Explains Viral Video
Social media posts claimed that Ashanty cried and refused to bless Azriel Hermansyah’s interfaith relationship with Sarah Menzel, leading to rumors of an expulsion from the family home. Speaking in the Cilangkap area of East Jakarta, Ashanty dismissed the claims as false fabrication. She explained that the footage circulating online captured an entirely different event from the past. “Aduh, fitnah ya. Jadi yang tersebar di medsos itu adalah video lama aku waktu Lumiere tutup. Tapi narasinya dibuat seolah-olah aku nangis karena Ziel,” Ashanty stated, as reported by hot.detik.com.
She confirmed that Azriel continues to live under the same roof with the family, despite an infrequent presence in shared social media content. “Tak perlu saya klarifikasi, lah wong gak benar. Yang pasti, Ziel masih tinggal bareng kami. Tapi memang jarang unggah video atau foto saja. Gaklah, anakku sangat manis dan baik,” Ashanty added.

Azriel and Sarah Menzel Target Bali Wedding Next Year
While internet rumors focused on manufactured family tension, preparations for Azriel Hermansyah and Sarah Menzel’s wedding are actively moving forward. Suara.com reported that Azriel confirmed wedding planning has reached eighty percent completion, with the ceremony planned to take place in Bali next year. The upcoming nuptials involve extended family members from all sides, including Ashanty, Kris Dayanti, and Aurel Hermansyah.
Azriel noted that aligning the calendars of Ashanty, Kris Dayanti, and Aurel Hermansyah requires significant planning alongside Sarah Menzel’s business commitments in Bali and Azriel’s activities in Jakarta. Meanwhile, Sarah Menzel comes from a prominent hospitality family in Bali led by Andreas Menzel and Luh Gede Herryani, as detailed by Suara.com.
Family Boundaries and Silence on Wedding Details
Azriel asked family members to let him and Sarah Menzel handle public disclosures about their wedding plans. “Dia bilang kalau ada yang nanya-nanya, yang jawab biar aku sama Sarah.”
Both families have previously addressed the matter of religious differences, with Luh Gede Herryani stating in 2024 that any decision regarding faith rests entirely with Sarah Menzel. As planning continues toward next year’s celebration in Bali, neither Azriel nor Sarah has released a specific calendar date or venue schedule for the ceremony.
