In a recent interview with Ilana Dayan on the program "Uvda" on Keshet 12, Or addressed his relationship with Argamani, revealing that they broke up several months ago. "We both went through a lot in these two years, each in his own way," Or stated. "Things that might have fit before don't fit anymore, and it's okay that it ended. Each person has moved on in their own way."
