In February 2021, he announced his conversion to Islam on Instagram. He wrote in the post:
Growing up in Europe, I always associated the word “Islam” with negativity, war, terrorism, and to be honest, I was never a religious person before, so I didn’t really care what anyone thought at the time. My best childhood friend was a Muslim, and deep down we were all human beings living in the same simulation we call life.”

A few days after Betzmann’s post, Zoya shared,
It is with a heavy heart that I announce that Christian Betzmann and I are no longer engaged. His sudden change in attitude toward my culture, my country, my people, and his indifference to my religious beliefs have forced me to make this difficult and irreversible decision.”
