Less than a week after being voted out of the "Big Brother" house, Hodia Cohen is already back to normal life, and she is doing it alongside Zohar, who became one of her closest companions during the show. The pair appeared together at the launch of KIKO MILANO’s new summer collection at BIG FASHION Glilot, where they did not hide their affection from the cameras.
In their first joint interview since she left the house, Cohen described the experience with one word, "experience." She said the period was full of emotions and meaningful moments, and that getting to know Zohar was the highlight. Asked whether she was disappointed by her elimination, she said she believes everything happens at the right time. "God put my life order the way it needs to be," she said, adding that she is happy with where she is now, especially with Zohar by her side.
The relationship has already moved beyond the television screen. Zohar said he had met Cohen’s mother before she left the house, and Cohen said her father, who comes from a religious home and does not watch television often, also connected strongly with her new partner. When asked whether a joint family kiddush was coming soon, they smiled and said it had already happened.
The couple said distance is not a problem, even though Cohen lives in Bat Yam and Zohar lives in the Jerusalem hills region. "Forty minutes is not Eilat," Cohen said with a smile. On moving in together, marriage, and children, they said they are not rushing. "What needs to happen will happen," Cohen repeated, while Zohar said they are mainly hoping to find time for a shared vacation. After leaving the house, they said the first thing they did was listen to music for hours, one of the hobbies that brought them together during the season. They said the biggest difference between the relationship inside the house and real life is privacy, and the ability to enjoy the romance without dozens of cameras around.
