..her romance..

Siti has previously been romantically linked to quite a number of fellow artistes including Zamani, Anuar Zain and Dr Fazley Yaakob. It was rumoured that Siti and Fazley were together before she met her future husband, Datuk Khalid Muhammad Jiwa (Datuk K), as Fazley helped her get a chance to perform at the Royal Albert Hall in London. They flew there together but things apparently became tense when Siti kept on disappearing with Datuk K during rehearsals.

Siti was also previously linked to actor-singer-director cum producer Yusry Abdul Halim who was formerly married to actress Erra Fazira. For the past few years, Siti was rumoured to be in a relationship with a prominent Malaysian businessman, who was then only referred to as Datuk K. The rumour had it that she would be getting married in 2006, to which she neither confirmed nor denied, which deviated from her usual response to rumors. The rumors were further fueled during her acceptance speech at the "Anugerah Bintang Popular 2006" awards ceremony. In her speech she thanked "her special one", whom she had never mentioned before. Recently reporters saw the family of Siti's supposed lover visiting her house in Kuala Lipis. Many believed that the family visited in order to arrange for the wedding.

Much controversy arose over the romance, due to the 20 year age gap between them. Also, rumours were flying that Siti had an affair with Datuk K while he was still married, and asked him to leave his wife for her. They apparently met through Datuk K's former wife Tengku Zawyah Tengku Izham who used to invite Siti to perform at charity functions that she hosted. However, both Datuk K and Siti denied these allegations.

On July 17, 2006, Siti and Datuk Khalid made a press conference announcing their wedding plans. A local TV SMS poll conducted on the same day of the announcement showed that 49% of viewers did not approve of the news. The press conference got a frenzy of media coverage and a live telecast from TV3's Wanita Hari Ini. It was announced at the conference that she will wed businessman Datuk Khalid Muhammad Jiwa, on August 21, 2006.

The wedding was charted as the top celebrity wedding on Yahoo Buzz.

The engagement and akad nikah ceremony were held at Masjid Wilayah Persekutuan (Federal Territory Mosque) on August 21, 2006. The ceremony was also televised live and gathered more than 2 millions viewers. The first wedding reception was held on August 28, 2006, at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC) which televised to 6.3 millions viewers nationwide. It was a star studded affair, with guests including royal families, VIPs, celebrities, close friends and family. A second reception was held on September 3, 2006, in Siti's hometown of Kuala Lipis, Pahang.
