Singer Nasrin Kadri has spoken out for the first time about an incident involving hostage survivor Rom Bar-Slavsky, who alleged that Kadri's partner assaulted him. Kadri stated that she needed time to process the difficult period following the complaint filed by Bar-Slavsky. She and her current partner, David Ziton, addressed the controversy and discussed their relationship.

Kadri, who was born Muslim and converted to Judaism, also discussed her personal journey, including cosmetic surgeries and how she explains her family's roots to her two children. She emphasized her strong sense of self and her refusal to be limited by others' opinions, stating, "Nothing can stop me." She reflected on her nearly two-decade career, which began after winning the reality show "Eyal Golan Kor'e Lach" at age 20, a time when she was still learning Hebrew.

Regarding her conversion, Kadri explained it was a personal search for belonging, leading her to embrace Judaism and raise her children in a kosher home, speaking to them only in Hebrew. She also addressed her divorce from her ex-husband, Rom Shamir, with whom she shares two children, noting that they maintain a positive co-parenting relationship.

Kadri also discussed her new relationship with David Ziton, a singer ten years her junior, and her move to a moshav, describing it as a peaceful environment. Ziton, who has been serving in the reserves and was injured multiple times since October 7th, shared how they met. The couple expressed their happiness and how Ziton has brought light into her life.

Addressing the incident with Bar-Slavsky, Ziton explained it stemmed from a misunderstanding when he tried to help at a private party. Kadri clarified that Bar-Slavsky was not invited and that the situation escalated due to miscommunication. She expressed regret over the public fallout and her initial emotional distress, but ultimately found strength to move forward. Kadri also announced upcoming projects, including a duet with Noa Kirel and the launch of her fashion studio, "DRESS BY NESS."
