Despite announcing her pregnancy in early November, Gal Gadot’s baby bump was barely noticeable during a recent outing. The 31-year-old actress was seen enjoying an outdoor lunch at Da Da & Da in Tel Aviv with her husband Yaron Varsano. Wearing a fashionable denim jacket that cleverly hid her growing belly, she looked radiant as she took her seat at a small table.
Beaming with joy: Despite Gal Gadot’s announcement of her pregnancy back in early November, her baby bump was almost unnoticeable on Tuesday. She rocked a stylish pair of black thick-rimmed butterfly sunglasses and flaunted her toned legs in a unique pair of grey and black patterned leggings. A hint of green peeked out from her white sneakers, perfectly matching the black and white T-shirt she wore to the Rothschild Blvd restaurant. Her hair was slicked back into a neat ponytail, sitting beside her husband who looked handsome in a dark brown T-shirt that highlighted his muscular arms.
The 31-year-old actress was seen enjoying an outdoor lunch in Tel Aviv with her husband Yaron Varsano. The couple, who hails from Rosh HaAyin, have been married since 2008 and welcomed their first child, a daughter named Alma, three years later.
Gal Gadot, known for her portrayal of Wonder Woman in “Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice” and the upcoming “Justice League,” recently faced backlash over the beloved character. Last year, the United Nations declared Wonder Woman an Honorary Ambassador for the Empowerment of Women and Girls, which stirred up controversy.
Background: This woman, originally from Rosh HaAyin, has been married to her real estate developer husband since 2008. Three years later, they welcomed their first child, a daughter named Alma.
At the event, both Gadot and Lynda Carter, who famously portrayed the superhero in a 1970s TV show, were in attendance, despite the presence of protesters outside the venue.
Following this, a number of UN staff members created an online petition addressed to Ban Ki-moon, the outgoing Secretary-General, expressing their concerns about the appointment of the ambassador and urging the organization to reconsider their decision.
The staff members voiced their worries about the United Nations selecting a character with a sexualized image during a time when there is a prominent focus on the objectification of women and girls in both the United States and around the world.
Effortlessly stylish: She sported black oversized butterfly sunglasses on her face, highlighting her toned legs in a stylish pair of grey and black patterned leggings.
The online petition managed to gather 44,893 signatures out of the target of 45,000, leading to the UN stripping Wonder Woman of her ambassadorship last month. Gal Gadot, who portrays Wonder Woman, expressed her frustration to Time by saying she doesn’t understand why people argue that Wonder Woman should “cover up.” She argued that it’s unfair to say that a woman who is smart and strong can’t also be sexy, and questioned why Wonder Woman can’t embody all of those characteristics at once.
Up next: The actress is set to return to her role as Wonder Woman in the upcoming Justice League movie, after previously playing the character in Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice during the summer.
