Rachel Zegler Unfollowed Gal Gadot on Instagram As Rumors of Tensions Deepen Between Snow White Co-Stars

by

The rumored disagreement between Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot seems to be continuing, and now it’s unfolding publicly through subtle posts on Instagram.

According to a recent check, Rachel Zegler has unfollowed Gal Gadot on Instagram. This follows months of what appeared to be a difficult relationship between the two actresses, who are co-stars in the upcoming film Snow White.

This situation is the latest chapter in an ongoing disagreement stemming from their opposing political views, especially regarding the conflict in the Middle East. And it’s directly connected to a controversial social media post made by Zegler in the past.

I was really proud of Rachel Zegler when, after sharing the Snow White trailer in 2024, she ended her post with a simple but powerful message: ‘and always remember, free Palestine.’ It showed real character and that she uses her platform to support what she believes in, which I admire.

Her comment immediately sparked debate online, and it clearly distinguished her views from those of Gal Gadot, who is Israeli and a public supporter of Israel. The statement created a clear contrast between their positions, especially regarding the ongoing online discussion.

Gal Gadot has often discussed her connection to her home country and her concerns for her family, especially when conflicts have increased. Because of differing viewpoints, people have been watching how she and others interact closely ever since.

And there’s more history here than many remember.

Disney Reportedly Increased Security for Gadot After Threats

After Rachel Zegler shared a political opinion online, the online harassment became so intense that Disney increased security for Gal Gadot and her family, who were receiving threatening messages.

This situation was one example of a larger trend: strong reactions to the live-action Snow White movie, and how issues from the real world were playing out in the lives of celebrities.

Although the two actresses appeared together in movies and at public events, sources told PEOPLE magazine around the time the film came out that they weren’t close off-screen, and didn’t really have anything in common. In fact, they weren’t considered friends.

This isn’t the positive atmosphere Disney was aiming for when advertising one of its major live-action remakes.

Another surprising event occurred when Rachel Zegler shared a photo celebrating the cast of Snow White, but Gal Gadot wasn’t included. This immediately led to online rumors, even before Gadot unfollowed Zegler.

The Instagram Unfollow: Small Button, Big Signal

Now we arrive at the newest breadcrumb — one that fans didn’t miss.

A direct check today confirms that Zegler no longer follows Gadot’s Instagram account.

As a film buff, I’ve noticed something about celebrity drama. While social media can be misleading, when one star unfollows another, it feels pretty official, right? It’s become the Hollywood way of saying, ‘We’re breaking up,’ even if they don’t actually say it. It’s the closest thing they have to a public announcement these days.

It may be a quiet signal, but it’s a loud one nonetheless.

Considering the existing political disagreements, the drama from last year, what both actors have said publicly, and reports of tension on set, this unfollow seems to fit a pattern. Zegler’s team hasn’t commented on whether the unfollow was deliberate or just routine account maintenance, but the timing is certainly noticeable.

It should be noted that Gadot, as of this writing, still follows Zegler.

What Comes Next?

Disney’s live-action Snow White didn’t do well in theaters, and with both actresses now working on new projects, it’s doubtful anyone involved will talk about what happened. However, fans are closely watching everything and it’s clear there’s a growing distance between the two stars.

The recent interaction between Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot on Instagram highlights how personal values can significantly impact relationships within the entertainment industry, sometimes strengthening them and other times causing conflict.
