Model Shirley Bouganim has spoken candidly about the significant challenges motherhood has presented to her marriage after a 13-year journey to parenthood. Bouganim, who became a mother to twins last year at age 51, described the process of trying to conceive and raising children as a "very difficult event" that can "break up a relationship." She emphasized the need for a "very strong relationship" and "good friendship" to withstand the pressures of parenting, especially with twins, which leaves "no time" for the couple.
Bouganim and her husband, Liron Sarok, 50, who married in 2013, began their attempts to conceive even before their wedding. Their path to parenthood involved a lengthy and "grueling" 13-year process, marked by disappointments, before they finally welcomed their twins, Liam and Ari, via surrogacy in Tbilisi. She shared that even after the twins' birth, the difficulties in her relationship intensified, as "all of you is for the children."
Bouganim is set to discuss these challenges further in an upcoming appearance on "Almost Shabbat Shalom" on Keshet 12.
