  • Maayan Adam polled followers on election outcomes, asking if a better future or current government will prevail.
  • Adam lost her sister on October 7 and has been critical of Prime Minister Netanyahu.
  • Her consumer club "Mami" has over 400,000 members and rejected acquisition offers over 100 million shekels.
  • Adam recently welcomed a new son and accepted a marriage proposal from former MK Yuval Tselner.

Israeli social media influencer and TV host Maayan Adam has polled her Instagram followers on their expectations for the upcoming Knesset elections, scheduled for October 27. Adam, who lost her sister to Hamas on October 7, shared a screenshot of a "Voter's Message" form and asked followers to choose between three scenarios: a new, better future where "we will return to breathe," the continuation of the current government with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the ultra-Orthodox parties, or a tie between blocs leading to chaos.

Adam has been vocal about her political views and personal grief. She previously drew significant attention for her sharp rebuke of Prime Minister Netanyahu after he posted a lighthearted invitation to join him in his Sukkah during the Sukkot holiday. Adam responded harshly, highlighting his absence from her family's mourning rituals after her sister's death, a reaction that resonated widely online.

In addition to her public commentary, Adam has built a successful business empire. Her consumer club, "Mami," founded in February 2024, has attracted over 400,000 members and launched a credit card in partnership with Isracard. Adam recently rejected acquisition offers for "Mami" exceeding 100 million shekels, stating her mission for the company is not yet complete. She initially invested 700,000 shekels of her own money into the venture.

This period of intense public and business activity coincides with significant personal milestones for Adam. She recently announced the birth of her son and, shortly after, accepted a marriage proposal from her partner and the father of her daughters, former Knesset member Yuval Tselner, in the hospital delivery room.
