Reality TV star's ex-husband dies in court

David Dudai, 60, collapses during bankruptcy hearing in Tel Aviv court. He is pronounced dead after 50 minutes of resuscitation attempts

A 60-year-old man collapsed and died during a hearing at the Tel Aviv District Court on Sunday. Court security guards and Magen David Adom medics tried to resuscitate him for 50 minutes without success.

 

David Dudai was a businessman and the former husband of Etti Dudai, one of the stars of an Israeli reality TV show inspired by Bravo's The Real Desperate Housewives. He collapsed during a hearing on a bankruptcy case.

Upon his collapse, the judge pressed the emergency button which called in court security guards who attempted to perform CPR on Dudai until MDA medics arrived.

 

They, in turn, continued with resuscitation efforts but were eventually forced to pronounce Dudai dead. He apparently collapsed due to heart failure. Dudai's ex-wife Etti arrived at the court together with family members.

 

A similar incident occurred more than two years ago at a Petah Tikva court when a 63-year-old man accused of attacking his kids collapsed and died shortly after.
