After a stormy season: Anna and Ori Banai won the title of Israel's Power Couple
After a series of complex physical and mental tasks in a luxurious palace, the couple that defeated Asi and Adi Buzaglo and took home the huge cash prize from Reshet 13 was announced.
Anna and Ori Banai are the big winners of the new season of the reality show Power Couple. The couple defeated the pairs Asi and Adi Buzaglo and Omri and Dorin Kanda in the tense finale, taking home the coveted title alongside a huge cash prize. The season, which aired on Reshet 13 and was hosted by Ron Shahar, put eight celebrity couples through complex relationship tests inside a luxurious palace.
The winning couple took home 399,000 shekels this evening after a series of physical and mental tasks that tested their level of trust and communication. Throughout the season, the couples faced difficult challenges that led to dramatic reversals and surprising eliminations that shook the relationships within the villa. The combination of skill, marital resilience, and mutual support helped the Banai family reach the finish line and win the viewers' trust.
Alongside the tasks, the season was characterized by public storms and charged confrontations. The most prominent incident occurred when 26-year-old social media influencer Odia Pinto did not recognize the picture of the late former Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, explaining it by her upbringing in the Haredi education system. The case sparked a stormy debate in the media and on social networks, and drew sharp criticism from media figures like Rani Rahab regarding educational gaps and societal sectors.
The tension in the villa escalated later in a loud confrontation between Odia Pinto and actress Hani Nahmias, after the latter asked her about the play 'Bustan Sephardi' (Spanish Garden). The confrontation spilled over into an exchange of sharp messages and raised a poignant discussion about generational and cultural gaps. Despite all the dramas and tense relationships between the contestants, in the end, it was Anna and Ori Banai who displayed the most stable relationship and were crowned Israel's Power Couple.
