About Snokel: We Were Not Friends • About "Riches": I Was Stupid, Ashamed My Kids To See It • About Challenge: All For Rating • Nicole Reidman is No Longer Happy
Not happy at all:
Last night (Thursday) the show "Exposure" aired an interview of Haim Etgar with former rich woman Jennifer Snokel, who starred in the second season of the docu-reality "Fortunes" in 2012.
The one who then displayed an exaggerated hedonistic life, ran into severe economic and personal difficulties in later years, which led her to leave the country for an almost destitute Canada, leaving behind heavy debts and her five children from three marriages.
About three years ago, she decided to return to Israel from Canada, and last night, as mentioned, a revealing interview was broadcast with her on the "Exposure" program led by Haim Etgar.
Among the revelations she revealed, Snokel recounted how she was deeply hurt by her ex-reality friend Nicole Reidman, to whom, she said, she turned when she was in distress and who, she claimed, turned her back on her.
Reidman did not remain indifferent to the accusations leveled against her in prime time, and after the show aired she uploaded a long series of posts to her Instagram, in which she responded to the accusations leveled against her and also went against the challenge itself for the way he chose to present things.
"The truth is I'm not relaxing, I'm just shocked to the depths of my heart," the agitated Reidman opened the story.
"How can you say things about someone you have no connection with at all and blame him for problems in your life ?! How? Who gives that right? 2 more rating? Who?".
Reidman even added that participating in reality is one of her big life regrets and she is harming her to this day: "If there is one thing I regret in life that I took part in this silly show 'Fortunes'. This is the biggest mistake I have made in my life. "To this day. When I entered the project they said it was about strong, powerful women to empower women to move forward and succeed! I was stupid and naive. I am ashamed that my children will grow up and open the internet and watch that project."
Reidman added that the entire show was staged from start to finish, and that in fact she and Leah Schnirer were the only ones who really held the title of "fortunes" and the rest was manipulations of the production.
"What will they say?" Reidman went on to describe the disgust she currently feels from her time on the show and how she worries about its impact on her children's lives.
"That mom was once part of a bunch of obscure women that what interests them is a new bag? Trash can! I was obscure for years! Years! But there is a limit!"
"We were not friends"
"I have not heard of Mrs. Jennifer for years!" Reidman wrote angrily.
"Since the launch of the show, it was the last time I saw it in my life. Even when there was a huge debt on the clothes in my store that she took and never paid, I never asked her for payment.
"We were not friends," she repeated, emphasizing the nature of the relationship between the two.
"Friendship for me is a top value! I have not spoken to her and have not met her since the filming. I did not know what her condition was and she never turned to ask for help. The character of 'Rich' took over her life, and she could not help but maintain it in real life. This is not life. "And not my decisions, but to say that I did not help? To say that we were friends? It is already crossing the boundaries of common sense," she continued.
"I wish her the best in the world as I wish everyone, including myself," Reidman wrote at the end of the charged story.
"Money comes and money goes, but there is only one family and children. It is much more expensive than a Chanel bag. I very much hope that you will get their love back, because that's all in life, that's life."
Reidman added that despite everything, she is here to help.
"If I can help, I am always here, in what I can. I am neither God nor Social Security. I am a single mother who devotes her whole life to her children. Health and happiness to all, Shabbat Shalom!"
Reidman was not content with these things, and also uploaded a series of screenshots documenting correspondence with Challenge itself before the show aired yesterday.
"I have no idea what this is about!", Reidman replied to a message he sent her a challenge asking for a response to Snokel's remarks about asking for her help and not being answered.
"I've not been in touch with her since filming the show. The last time I saw her it was at the launch of the episode of 'Fortunes'. More than 7-8 years have passed. I always help no matter who, I don't even have her phone!"
Reidman also spared no personal criticism against Challenge for the way he chose to present things.
"What not to do for a rating?", She wrote and tagged the challenge and then added: "Pierre ... I was hurt."
At the end of the story she wrote: "The main thing is rating, friendship? Violation of a person's good name? Who cares? Prime time rules. Life is a challenge, I live on other values, Syrian. I wish everyone to help 1% of what I help people. The world will be better "Maybe with less rating, light and love."
"Mask of Inventions and Lies"
As expected, the hurt and angry story managed to create a storm and quite unusually, also led Reidman's public relations manager, Ofer Menachem, to comment on it in a lengthy Instagram post of his own this morning (Friday).
"Dear people," he opened the post.
"Yesterday a show on the story of Jennifer Snokel was broadcast on the 'Exposure' program with Haim. I do not usually comment and comment, but in this case I must share with you that Nicole and I were amazed to see a series of inventions and lies that were broadcast without a thorough examination. Nicole knew Jennifer in the filming of a joint show about a decade ago.They were never friends as shown in the show and for a decade there was no connection between them, there was probably no request from Jennifer for help or any other matter.
"We do not want to offend anyone and certainly not to hurt anyone in a time of crisis or sorrow, but yes it is important for me to put things right. And to sum up: was not and was not created!"
Menachem asked to clarify Reidman's remarks again.
"Personally, as a public relations manager who closely accompanies Nicole for over a year, I know of hundreds if not thousands of donations she makes secretly, of hundreds of small businesses that breathe air thanks to her, of hundreds of industry people and needy people she cares for, for free without publicity and without "Interest in being a woman with a huge heart," he wrote.
"I always want to put out items and news about the amazing things she does behind the scenes so everyone knows her mind and heart, but she vehemently refuses to approve of me and always emphasizes that what she does, and the donations she makes, she makes from the heart and secretly unwilling to take any news out.
"Dear talkbackers," he addressed the hundreds of thousands of people who watched the show.
"Not everything is always visible, and not always what you write, say or present to you in one program or another is correct. Sometimes the ratings are more important than the truth. So here I am to put things right. Shabbat Shalom," concluded the post, which received hundreds of likes and comments They are also strengthened by the singer Dudu Aharon, who wrote: "There is no heart as good as hers."
"Good and generous woman"
After being tagged in the story and exposed to the storm that arose following the broadcast of the interview, Etgar himself also chose to address the allegations against him, writing briefly in the story that surfaced on his Instagram this morning (Friday):
"I read Nicole Reidman's reaction to what was said about her last night on 'Exposure.'
