Nikita Mirzani

She has two adoptive sisters named Amelia Natadipura and Fitri Salhuteru (b. 1974).

Her father was of Minangkabau ethnicity and worked for PT Krakatau Steel, and her mother was of partial Dutch ancestry.

Nikita Mirzani was born on 17 March 1983 in Jakarta, Indonesia, as the second child and only daughter of the four children to Mawardi bin Rasyidin (1963–2014) and Julaelah (1967–2009).

Her brothers were Edwin Augustinus Ray, Pedro Adrian, and Lintang Fajar Gemuruh.

Nikita Mirzani Mawardi (born 17 March 1986) is an Indonesian actress, model and host of television shows.

In 2006, Nikita married a man known only as Nasseru, who she later claimed was the son of a prominent member of the House of Representatives (DPR).

They were divorced in 2007, with Nikita subsequently claiming her husband was temperamental and a drug addict.

From this marriage, Nikita had a daughter Laura Meizani Nasseru Asry, nicknamed Loly, born in 2007.

She commenced her television career with an appearance on Take Me Out Indonesia and made her film debut as an extra in Lihat Boleh, Pegang Jangan (2010).

Known for her feisty personality, she has gained national media attention outside her television and film career because of her involvement in physical altercations, her troubled romantic relationships, as well as her criticism of Islamic Defenders Front (FPI) leader Muhammad Rizieq Shihab.

In 2012, Nikita revealed she had been having an affair with actor and comedian Indra Birowo for almost a year, until Indra's wife found out.

On 5 September 2012, Nikita was in a fight with three other women at SHY rooftop bar in Kemang, South Jakarta.

Nikita claimed her friend Angela Army was stimulating kissing and striptease on the dance floor, prompting sisters Beverly Sheila Sandie and Olivia Mei Sandie to laugh at Army.

Nikita said she approached Army and advised her to tone down her dancing to avoid being ridiculed.

She said Army responded by striking and choking Beverly, while Olivia attacked Army.

Nikita then grabbed and dragged Olivia by the hair and the fight continued from the building's fourth floor to in front of the third floor lift.

During the melee, Nikita suffered a cut lip.

The Sandie sisters later filed a police complaint, alleging that Nikita had grabbed, punched and kicked them.

Their father said the sisters had only been laughing at the sight of a male friend acting like a woman.

He said Army felt insulted by the laughter and pulled Beverly's hair, prompting Olivia to get up, only to be attacked by Nikita.

Nikita was arrested and tried for assault at South Jakarta District Court.

She was held in police custody for 57 days before being released on the condition that she report to police.

On 24 April 2013, South Jakarta District Court sentenced her to four months' imprisonment.

Nikita appealed to Jakarta High Court, which upheld the guilty verdict and extended her sentence by another month.

In the early hours of 27 July 2013, Nikita was involved in a physical altercation with a 25-year-old university student, Fitri Sri Handayani alias Fia, during Ramadan at the Golden Monkey bar and restaurant in Bandung, West Java.

Both women were injured in the fight and reported each other to police.

Fia said she was leaving the venue at 2:30am when a fight started near the entrance, so she curiously approached the melee, only to be punched in the right eye by Nikita.

Fia was also allegedly assaulted by Onadio Leonardo, the vocalist of the band Killing Me Inside.

Indonesian media reported that Fia had requested "peace money" of Rp300 million from Nikita for the case not to proceed to court.

She then appealed to the Supreme Court, which on 16 April 2014 rejected her appeal.

In early 2015, she was required to serve a prison term of 93 days to complete her 150-day sentence.

In February 2018, Nikita announced she had married entrepreneur Dipo Latief, the son of Suharto-era manpower minister and tycoon Abdul Latief.

One month later, Nikita denied the marriage was serious.

On 16 July 2018, Nikita applied for a marriage and divorce, only to withdraw her application on 24 October 2018.

The couple had one child, Arkana Mawardi, born in 2019.

Nikita filed again for marriage and divorce on 29 November 2019.

The marriage and divorce were granted by South Jakarta Religious Court on 7 October 2019.

Nikita's lawyer said the marriage and divorce were necessary so that the couple's child would be legitimate and so that Dipo would have to pay "hundreds of millions" of rupiah in child support.

Dipo appealed the legality of the marriage at the Supreme Court but lost his appeal.

Nikita was later convicted of assaulting Dipo.
