The story · English

Israeli media personality Galit Gutman is celebrating her birthday, marking an occasion to reflect on her extensive career as a model, presenter, and television host. Gutman began her journey in the fashion world at the age of 17, winning the "Water Girl" title in a 1989 youth magazine competition.

Over the years, she became one of Israel's most sought-after models, fronting campaigns for major brands like Crazy Line, Hamashbir Latzarchan, and Delta, maintaining a prominent status for decades. Beyond modeling, Gutman ventured into acting, appearing in popular television series such as "Ramat Aviv Gimel" and "Zimmerim," as well as stage productions.

She is also recognized as a prominent television host, notably anchoring the first four seasons of the fashion reality show "HaDugmaniot." More recently, Gutman has established herself as a respected figure in current affairs and social commentary, hosting morning shows on Keshet 12 and investigative programs like "Bat Ba'et Zot" and "Achim Lechol Ha'Hayim."

Gutman is a mother to two children, Shira and Eli, from her previous relationship with fashion photographer Ziv Koren. Her daughters are also pursuing careers in fashion and media. She is currently married to businessman and art collector Yigal Ahuvi. In addition to her television work, Gutman has expanded into podcasts, discussing topics such as relationships, parenting, lifestyle, and menopause.

Gutman is considered a trailblazer for challenging perceptions of models and age in Israel, continuing to lead major campaigns and projects into her 40s and 50s. She is consistently recognized as one of Israel's most stylish and photogenic women, frequently featured in media coverage of red carpet events.
