Children's entertainer Michal Hakatanah and her ex-husband, businessman Nir Weitzman, were seen together at the wedding of reality show contestant Elad Tzefani and his partner Romi Grossman in Rishon LeZion. The couple, who officially divorced in December 2024 after 16 years of marriage and six children, were attending the event nearly two years after their separation. Hakatanah, 43, attended the wedding just two months after her breakup with her younger ex-boyfriend, Yehuda Buchbut, 30. Weitzman is 45. Hakatanah stated that the responsibility for their children, who stayed home, rests on her shoulders.

The wedding drew numerous Israeli celebrities, including Moshe Peretz and his wife Yarden, Liam Golan and his partner Romi Yosipov, Elin Golan, Talya Ovadia, and Shahaf Raz. Other notable guests included Roi Adam, Gal Adam, Eden Ben Zaken, Shuki Biton, Shaulov, Ofek Mizrahi, Nir Benilosh, Miri Bohdana, Maor Buzaglo, Sapir Kashti, Sana Sokol, Linor Sbinik, Yuval Shem Tov, Ira Dolfin, and Manny Mamtera with his wife Perla Danuch.

Beyond the celebrity attendees and the bride's dresses, the event was marked by an altercation. According to reports, a guest ascended the stage during Shaulov's performance, requesting a photo with Shaulov and Roi Adam, who was also on stage. When denied, a confrontation ensued, reportedly leading to the guest being taken to the hospital.
