Actor Gil Ofarim has tied the knot again in a new marital union.
Gil Ofarim, the 42-year-old musician and former teen star, has publicly apologized for making false claims of antisemitism during an incident in Leipzig. In August 2025, Ofarim admitted that his accusation was a lie and expressed regret, stating that being sober changed his perspective on the event [1].
The case, which gained significant traction on social media, was heard by the Leipzig Regional Court. The court dismissed the case against Ofarim, but as a condition for the dismissal, he was ordered to pay a fine of 10,000 euros [2].
Ofarim's fame, which began in the late 1990s with a photo love story in the youth magazine Bravo, has laid the foundation for his later TV career, including participating in shows like "Let's Dance" and "The Masked Singer". He recently made his comeback on stage following an antisemitism scandal that occurred in October 2021 [3].
The incident led to significant public and media attention in Germany, given Ofarim's prominence as a musician and the country's sensitivity to antisemitism, which remains a serious social issue. Germany continues to grapple with both historical and recent antisemitism concerns, including those linked to new immigrant populations and other social tensions [4].
However, the specific legal or civil settlement details about Ofarim's case have not been disclosed in the available information. Ofarim's management confirmed his wedding in the Baden-Württemberg town of Ludwigsburg at Seeschloss Monrepos following a report by Bild [5]. No further details about his current residence or his marriage have been provided.
Ofarim's father, Abi Ofarim, was a 1960s star. This is Ofarim's second marriage. He recently performed a club concert in Bochum for around 200 people.
