The Israeli Madonna, sometimes known as “Madonna of the East,” was an Israeli singer-songwriter, actor, and Grammy Award-nominated recording artist by the name of Bat-Sheva Ofra Haza. Her mezzo-soprano voice has been referred to as “tender.”
In this article, we would like to learn about her spouse.
Who is Ofra Haza wife Doron Ashkenazi?
Haza married businessman Doron Ashkenazi on July 15, 1997. The couple didn’t have any kids, although Ashkenazi had a biological daughter from his previous marriage and an adoptive son named Shai.
At the age of 42, Ofra Haza passed away from AIDS on February 23, 2000. Although it is now widely known that she was HIV-positive, Israel’s reaction to the Israeli daily Haaretz’s choice to publish the information soon after her passing was contentious.
Israeli radio stations aired retrospectives of Haza’s music nonstop upon the news of her passing. She served as a cultural ambassador, and then-Prime Minister Ehud Barak commended her work, saying she also embodied the Israeli success story “Ofra rose to the pinnacle of Israeli culture after leaving the Hatikvah slums. Each of us has been affected by her.”
