Israeli supermodel Bar Rafaeli and heir to a family food fortune Adi Ezra welcomed their second daughter, Elle Ezra, over the weekend. (This sentence actually comes from a rare Isaac Bashevis Singer manuscript for a futuristic novel that was discovered in a time capsule recently.)

Same week, same dress, same place. Different year. ✨

I mean, come on. Look at these Jews!

The inimitable Rafaeli, long free from the clutches of that un-kosher floozy Leonardo DiCaprio, already has a one year-old daughter, Liv, with Ezra. The 32 year-old gave birth to Elle on Friday night at Tel Aviv Medical Center. “Our hearts are full of love right now, as I am excited to announce I am a mom of two,” Rafaeli said in a statement through a representative. Rafaeli married Ezra in 2015, saying she hoped to create “a big Jewish family” with him.

Elle. Is that as in “Elle Woods” or as in “El-Shadai”? We have high hopes for her either way. Mazal tov, Bar, Adi, Liv, and Elle!

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward.

Now more than ever, American Jews need independent news they can trust, with reporting driven by truth, not ideology. We serve you, not any ideological agenda.

At a time when other newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall and invested additional resources to report on the ground from Israel and around the U.S. on the impact of the war, rising antisemitism and polarized discourse.

Readers like you make it all possible. We’ve started our Passover Fundraising Drive, and we need 1,800 readers like you to step up to support the Forward by April 21. Members of the Forward board are even matching the first 1,000 gifts, up to $70,000.

This is a great time to support independent Jewish journalism, because every dollar goes twice as far.
