According to Hellomag, he married his longtime love, Jessica Parker Kennedy, in a modest, private ceremony on a Canadian farm that followed Jewish customs.
Ronen, who frequently communicates with his fans and recently came out as bisexual, chose to keep this announcement a secret in order to first enjoy the happiness with his partner alone.
Ronen, who frequently communicates with his fans and recently came out as bisexual, chose to keep this announcement a secret in order to first enjoy the happiness with his partner alone.
"I
definitely married my best friend and my favorite person in the whole
wide world," Ronen shared, as he spoke about his wedding for the first
time.The actor admitted he was "inconsolable" throughout the intimate
ceremony which was attended by only 30 guests.
Their
wedding was a whirlwind as it took place on 14th August, only two
months after Ronen, 28, proposed to Jessica, 38, in Portofino, Italy;
"We
wanted to be married so badly," said Jessica, with the bride wearing a
dress from department store Macy's and roping in her cousins to help
plan the entire day.
Ronen
and Jessica began dating in 2017 and they had a private relationship
for years before Lone Star's success catapulted him into the spotlight.
When and how did the proposal happen?
Ronen:
"There is a very famous hotel in Portofino where they shot La Dolce
Vita, it's one of the most historic, most beautiful hotels, and I
thought, ‘What better place to propose to the love of my life than this
place?’
We went to the famous pool restaurant which I had rented out with one table decorated with candles and roses.”
Jessica: "I was like, ‘Look, someone did a special table for somebody, that's so nice!’"
Ronen: "Then I had to look over and say, ‘That's where we're sitting.’ She was completely shocked.
The
champagne came out and within two minutes I knew I couldn't wait any
longer. I've been waiting for this moment for so long. I immediately got
down on one knee and I could barely squeak out the first couple of
words and I just started hysterically crying."
How had the conversations around Ronen's bisexuality - and Jessica's encouragement to come out - strengthened your relationship?
Jessica:
"Really early on in our relationship Ronen would make comments when we
would watch actors, and it then became a bigger conversation of, ‘What
am I?’ Not everything needs a title but at the same time there is
something empowering about being able to ‘know thyself’.
"I
also wanted to make sure he felt like he could talk about it
confidently and openly, certainly with me first andI also wanted to make
sure he felt like he could talk about it confidently and openly,
certainly with me first and foremost for our relationship."
Ronen:
"Bisexuality was a newer term for me. Growing up the way I did, I
didn't hear that word. Friends would have literally kicked my a** if I
had said anything.
"I
spend every day of my life with Jess so [her confidence in us was]
reassuring because I’ve heard countless stories of where coming out
actually ends relationships.
There's still so much prejudice against bisexual men, especially bisexual men that are in committed relationships with a female.
"I
think we are a beautiful example of a strong, solid, confident
relationship, and it shows people this is actually possible. There's not
that many public examples of this type of relationship and it’s an
example of something that should be shown in a positive and beautiful
light
