Romi Frenkel and Barak Shamir Reignite Romance Rumors with Provocative Fashion Shoot

The story · English

Israeli models Romi Frenkel and Barak Shamir, a former couple of three years known for their on-again, off-again relationship, have sparked renewed speculation about a romantic reunion following a steamy photoshoot for the lingerie brand Intimissimi. The provocative images, featuring the pair in minimal clothing, have generated significant buzz online and among fans.

Sources on set described an intense chemistry between Frenkel and Shamir, noting that "the hot chemistry between the two was in the air from the first moment." Brand representatives added that the shared frames "managed to reflect the passion and tension that remained between the two," predicting the photos would "drive the internet crazy."

While the racy photos circulate, both models are also pursuing individual international careers. Frenkel recently appeared at New York Fashion Week as a guest of Michael Kors, further solidifying her global presence. Shamir, meanwhile, has been candid about his health, explaining he has a "different heart structure but it's not something dangerous."

Shamir also commented on the impact of the October 7th attacks on the entertainment industry, stating that "since October 7th, the sums and budgets in the industry have decreased." He is reportedly returning to the United States with renewed focus on his career, while Frenkel continues to build her international standing.

Close associates commented on the daring encounter, suggesting that "the crazy connection in front of the cameras proves that first love has its own rules," leaving fans to wonder if the reunion is purely professional or the beginning of a romantic comeback.
