"Last time I did 10,000 steps, and this time I did 5,000."
A wealthy housewife shared an insight into her lavish lifestyle in Dubai.
Malaikah Raja, a Brit who lives in the city with her husband and young son, regularly shares glimpses of her luxurious life on her TikTok channel, which has over 679,000 followers.
In one video leading up to Eid, Malaikah revealed that she usually gets £180,000 a month in allowance but asked for more as the festival approached.
To spend the allowance, the family took a trip to the extravagant Dubai Mall to buy something fancy.
On the way to the mall, Malaikah sat in the back of her pink Mercedes G-Wagon while her husband drove.
In the video, the TikToker said he never holds the door open for her because he already gives her “so much”.
Malaikah said that walking around Dubai Mall is her version of a “workout”.
She revealed: “Last time I did 10,000 steps, and this time I did 5,000.”
The wealthy housewife decided to visit Van Cleef & Arpels, where bracelets cost around £4,000.
She stated: “I’m obsessed.”
Malaikah purchased a new bracelet and also had her current one cleaned.
She admitted that she may have to wait up to a month for her bracelet to arrive but assured her followers that she would be able to cope with the long wait.
The family later went to a cafe in the mall and watched the fountain show before heading back home that night.
In the caption, Malaikah asked:
“What do you guys think I should get myself with my next monthly allowance?”
The video went viral and racked up over four million views.

TikTok users raced to the video’s comments section to share their thoughts on Malaikah’s lifestyle, with many suggesting that money can’t buy you happiness.
One user asked: “Will you ever fill the void?”
Another criticised Malaikah’s husband and said:
“Opening doors and such is about respect and honour.
“He should be doing this. It’s not a matter of him doing enough already. Come on.”
Believing that her purchases were a sign of an unhappy marriage, a comment read:
“When you aren’t truly happy, you have to collect things.”
One user stated: “I always find having an ‘allowance’ weird because if he leaves you, what money will you have?”
Some said their marriage is based on materialistic things, with one saying:
“Why do people think money and designer clothes bring happiness or love? You’re being bought.”
Another wrote: “Your happiness is based on things.”
