Bar Refaeli Addresses Netta Alchimister Controversy, Omer Adam Relationship
Model and businesswoman Bar Refaeli recently addressed several topics that have been prominent in media and social media discussions. In an interview with "Ha'Tzinor" on Channel 13, she spoke about the criticism directed at fellow model Netta Alchimister, her past relationship with singer Omer Adam, and why many celebrities avoid expressing political opinions.
Refaeli defended Alchimister against backlash over her lingerie campaign, which some deemed inappropriate for a mother. Refaeli, a mother of three herself, argued this reflects a double standard for women. "The day they tell my husband he can't run shirtless on the beach because he's a father, maybe that's the day I'll say I can't go out revealingly because I'm a mother," she stated.
She also commented on her absence from Omer Adam's recent wedding to Sasha Israelovitch. While once considered close, their relationship has since cooled. Refaeli clarified there was no conflict, stating, "We are friends, but not very close anymore, and I didn't even expect to be invited to his wedding."
Adam and Israelovitch's wedding took place at the luxurious Monastero di San Fruttuoso in Portofino, Italy, with around 150 guests from the Israeli entertainment industry. The event reportedly cost approximately 19 million shekels (about $5.2 million USD), including accommodation, travel, parties, and gifts.
