From 2008 to 2013, she married the businessman Farid El Mourchedi (known as Fred Morse), the grandson of artist Farid Shawki from his daughter the producer Nahed Farid Shawki.

Political views
[edit]In a telephone conversation with the channel "Al Arabiya", she expressed her happiness with the peaceful Egyptian Revolution of 2011 and the demands for basic rights like freedom, political reform and a joint effort for nation building. In the meantime, Dalia said the absence of security made her feel worried, like the rest of the population. The worry, she explained, has been getting constantly worse after hundreds of prisoners fled the prison of Al Faiyum.
