The story · English

The relationship between "Big Brother" housemates Eliran Biton and Tal Tito has drawn considerable criticism on social media, from viewers and followers who have raised eyebrows at the closeness and hugs between the two. Eliran’s wife, Noya, who had already responded to the issue on social media, decided this time to go all the way to Neve Ilan to deliver a message.

Noya came outside the "Big Brother" house and shouted to Tal that "you don’t touch a married man," leaving the house in shock. "In my mind, he’s my brother," a stunned Tito said in a living room conversation. "I even thought Noya liked me because I take care of him like a brother."

In another conversation, Eliran responded: "Noya didn’t go to work and came here this morning to shout, apparently she didn’t like something specific and I respect that, that’s all." Tal replied: "It’s at the level where now I can’t even look you in the eye. For me, first of all, I respect her before I respect me and you." Eliran added: "You need to understand that my wife is sensitive about these things."

As mentioned, just this week, during a Q&A session she held on her Instagram page, the wife of the "Big Brother" contestant was asked about the closeness between him and Tal. At first, she clarified that she did not see a problem with their relationship: "I need to clarify something and say that they really are very good friends within the framework of the 'Big Brother' program. Everything is completely fine. I see everything exactly as you do, but I give the benefit of the doubt because I know the man I have at home a little."

"There are no friendships outside, no hugs outside, everything is within the framework of the program. And everything is really fine, in my opinion she is a very good friend of his," she added.

"I know who my husband is, and that is why I trusted him from the beginning to go into this experience. Not to look for what isn’t there, honestly it’s unnecessary."

After stating that she trusts her husband, she pointed instead to Tal as responsible for the closeness between them: "I behave differently as a woman, so I think it is that woman’s role to know her place. We have feminine codes, after all you know how it is, you don’t touch a married man. Even if he is my best friend, I can give a hug, but not hugs all day long."

"It is perfectly fine with me that they continue to be friends, I think she is a wonderful friend. I wish them to continue being friends," she added, and made clear again that it is Tal’s behavior, not her husband’s, that is under scrutiny: "But yes, her behavior definitely needs improvement."
