Israeli actress Noam Lugasi, known for her roles in popular television series such as "The Commander," "The Disappeared," and "The Escape," has become engaged to her boyfriend, Bar Yankovitz. Lugasi shared the happy news on Instagram on Friday, posting photos with her fiancé and expressing her joy. The proposal comes after a period of significant personal change for Lugasi. She publicly revealed her relationship with Yankovitz only in April, surprising many as she had previously been known to exclusively date women. Two years prior, Lugasi had announced on social media her intention to date men, humorously stating in a Q&A session that she was "looking for a man, a groom, a male" and requested he love soccer. This preference aligns with her lifestyle, as she has become a prominent and viral figure associated with the Maccabi Tel Aviv soccer team in recent years, frequently attending games and posting content that has garnered a large following among sports fans. Lugasi's personal journey reflects a trend within the Israeli entertainment industry, where other public figures have also transitioned from same-sex relationships to heterosexual ones, such as designer Shlomi Dadon, who recently married his girlfriend after previously being known for dating men.
