In the follow-up hearing on December 31, 2025, at Bandung Religious Court—after the failed initial mediation on December 17—Atalia Praratya attended in person with witnesses, while Ridwan Kamil sent his lawyer. She denied third-party involvement in her divorce petition and emphasized optimism for 2026, calling every ending a new beginning.
The divorce proceedings between DPR RI member Atalia Praratya and former West Java Governor Ridwan Kamil continued with a key hearing on December 31, 2025, at Bandung Religious Court. This session marked the main case examination following the unsuccessful mediation on December 17, where neither party attended in person.
Atalia appeared with two witnesses—her sibling and housekeeper—while Ridwan was represented by lawyer Wenda Aluwi, per court clerk Dede Supriadi. Atalia explicitly stated that her petition, filed December 10 via e-court, does not involve third-party issues, including affair rumors with Aura Kasih. "There is no such thing in our lawsuit. Ask the concerned party about that," she said post-hearing, as quoted on YouTube Cumicumi.
Wenda Aluwi refuted rumors linking their adopted child Arka to Aura Kasih, citing reviewed legal documents: "We have privilege to see those documents, including Arka's legal ones, confirming no connection."
Public speculation had grown, fueled by Aura's painting 'Marry in Manhattan' (her own work, not Ridwan's) and Ridwan's past social media posts. Atalia's earlier post on embracing wounds was reinterpreted in this light.
As 2025 ended, Atalia posted on Instagram: "Every ending is a new beginning." She welcomed 2026 optimistically: "New year, new hope, new start... Bismillahirrahmanirrahim." The case now advances to conclusion via e-litigation, with plans for joint custody of Arka.
