"Is your mother worried about the situation in our country at war these days?" asked Albert. "My mom is worried," he replied, sharing it with his 165,<> Instagram followers. "But what's most important is that she supports our country," he added over a photo of the two. "Before I met Assi, she was against Israel and today she is a Zionist like me."

Albert, who was born a Christian, has become a full-fledged Zionist since his move to Israel about a decade ago, and together with Assi enlists in public relations efforts, mainly in Spanish-speaking countries.

Assi and Albert got married in Barcelona seven years ago, two and a half years after they met at Madonna's concert, initially having a remote-controlled relationship because Albert, who was born in Spain, lived in Barcelona. In October 2021, they shared that they were expecting their first child through a surrogacy procedure in the United States, which was documented in a docu-film that aired after the birth of their first daughter Alex Ashley in March.

Now, as mentioned, they are expecting a new addition to their family, a brother or sister who will join Alex, once again with the help of a surrogate in a procedure carried out in the United States.
