A controversy erupted within the family of Elin Cohen just before the henna ceremony for her brother Lian and his partner May. The dispute began after a video surfaced on Instagram showing Miri Cohen, the mother of the groom, preparing the henna alone, without the participation of the bride's mother. This sparked criticism from online users who questioned why the bride's mother was excluded and Miri Cohen's conduct during the preparations.
In response to the backlash, Miri Cohen posted a video to explain the situation. However, her son Matan drew significant attention with his aggressive defense of his mother. He attacked the critics, calling them "bitter" and "losers," and challenged them to confront his mother directly, even making a gesture with a hamsa amulet towards the camera.
Miri Cohen explained that a family tradition dictates that only those in a happy, healthy relationship should mix the henna. She stated that the bride's mother is divorced, and therefore, according to their custom, she could not perform this role. She noted that her daughter-in-law May had also spoken about her parents' divorce on her own Instagram.
Despite the harsh comments and her son's angry reaction, Miri Cohen concluded her statement with a message of peace and well wishes for everyone's happiness and future celebrations.
