In 1970, Hosny was married to the Egyptian film director Ali Badrakhan; this marriage lasted for approximately eleven years. She was then married to [[Zaki Fatin Abdel Wahab]], son of [[Fateen Abdel Wahab]] and [[Leila Mourad]] in 1981. This marriage lasted only five months.{{citation needed|date=January 2016}} Persistent rumors claim that her first marriage was to the actor and singer, [[Abdel Halim Hafez]] (1929–1977), popularly known as "Al Andaleeb al Asmar" [The Dark-skinned Nightingale], whom she is believed to have married in secret.<ref>[http://www.amouda.com/arabic-suad-husni.htm Nassem Al-Kurd, "Soad Hosni: An Egyptian Cinderella of Kurdish Roots", n.d.]</ref> However, her family have denied the veracity of such rumors.<ref>[http://www.abridgetoegypt.com/entertainment/egyptian_artists/abdelhalim_hafez "Abdel Halim Hafez", ''A Bridge to Egypt''], 17 August, 2011.</ref>

She was romantically linked with various celebrities including the Egyptian film star [[Abdel Halim Hafez]].<ref>Allam, M., ''Vincere la Paura'', Edizioni Mondadori, 2010, n.p</ref> Despite never wearing a wedding dress in all her marriages, Hosni wore wedding dresses many times on screen through her films, and her first film husband was the Egyptian film star [[Salah Zulfikar]] in ''[[Money and Women]]'' of 1960. The rumor of her marriage to Abdel Halim Hafez was not the first in her life. In late 1962, a rumor was spread in the [[Mass media in Egypt|Egyptian press]] about her marriage to Salah Zulfikar, who's one of his country's most iconic male performers of all time and was popularly known as "Fares al Ahlem" [Knight of the Dreams], while filming with Zulfikar in ''[[A Date at the Tower]]''. Filming of the film scenes began in the [[Cairo Tower]], and the team continued for two weeks on board the ship ''Aida'' in [[Mediterranean Sea|the Mediterranean]]. After filming ended, the rumor of her marriage to Zulfikar spread in newspapers and magazines at the time. Zulfikar did not forget the nature of his previous work as a police officer and began with his sense of security to investigate the source of the rumor, to make sure that the lighting worker in the film crew was the owner of the rumor after a kiss was filmed between Zulfikar and Soad Hosny, where the kiss lasted for three minutes, until Zulfikar sensed it took them too long and told the [[cinematographer]], "Stop", and so the worker built this rumor because of the shot, but this rumor was denied and later, the two film stars participated in more than one film together.<ref name="marriage">{{Cite web|date=28 December 2020|title=«بعد قبلة لمدة 3 دقائق».. كواليس شائعة زواج سعاد حسني وصلاح ذو الفقار|url=https://www.dostor.org/3309617|access-date=26 January 2022|website=جريدة الدستور|language=ar-eg}}</ref> Her fourth and final marriage was to screen writer Maher Awad.<ref>[http://www.amouda.com/arabic-suad-husni.htm Nassem Al-Kurd, “Soad Hosni: An Egyptian Cinderella of Kurdish Roots”, n.d.]</ref>
