Now that Ronen has come out as an openly bisexual man, many people have been wondering what that means for his relationship. "His mom used to always tell him to be 'be extraordinary' and now he has those words, in my handwriting, tattooed on him."
"I fully embrace it and I think I understand what it means, and that it is something that is a calling.
Ronen is also taking part in the 2022 Outfronts festival which connects fans with all things LGBTQIA+ in television - and of course his usual daily interaction with fans across social media.
"I am one of the rare people who loves Twitter," he laughs, before sharing that it's easy to get overwhelmed if you don't know when to take a step back.
"There is always bad but there is a lot of good that comes out of it - I am quite the optimist," he says, before sharing the reminder that, despite the similarities, "TK is not Ronen and Ronen is not TK".

An optimist is the right word for Ronen.
“I come from a country where machismo equates to strength, and equates to a feeling of superiority over others,” he said. I said, ‘Listen, I understand if you guys don’t want to watch it, I understand you probably might say some really ignorant, close-minded stuff or you just might not want to watch it and I get that too.’”
Rubinstein also explained how his coming out “journey” was inspired by his work as an actor, including on 9-1-1: Lone Star.
“I fully identify as bisexual,” he said.
“I literally just got goosebumps saying that. However, he has decided to speak out about his sexual preference and many fans are stunned.

In a recent interview with Variety, the actor revealed that he is a bisexual man. But just hearing people's stories and truly understanding what people are going through, from 65-year-old firefighters in Nebraska or a 14-year-oldin Germany."

As for those family or friends he did lose after sharing his truth, Ronen has only one piece of advice and that's to "take time to appreciate the good people in our life".
For Ronen those good people are his chosen family, including long-term girlfriend Jessica Parker Kennedy, Chaise, and his co-stars including Rafael and Brian.
Chaise and Ronen met in late 2019 after he first booked Lone Star and Ronen wanted to treat himself to a gift - a Saint Lauren "man pouch".

"Chaise was the first person I saw and the first words out of his mouth were, 'You look like you're on a mission,' which is so Chaise knowing him now!" laughs Ronen.
"The pouch wasn't in his store, it was in another.
“I literally just got goosebumps saying that.
Born in Israel, Ronen moved to New York at the age of five with his parents, and he grew up in Staten Island where he was taught English as a second language and felt difficulty adapting to American culture.
As a teenager, Staten Island was in the midst of an opioid epidemic and Ronen was heading down a path that was "not good".
And then for season two it didn't cross my mind because the world was in shambles. But by the looks of it, things are smooth sailing for him and his longtime girlfriend, Jessica Parker Kennedy.
In fact, Ronen revealed that Jessica called him out about his sexuality and told him that he should be open and honest about it.

"She’s actually one of the first people [who] sort of respectfully called me out on it,” he shared.
“I want people to know that they’re not alone and it’s definitely OK. Trust me, I know that it is not easy. On that same network, she's also appeared as Melissa Glaser on The Secret Circle, and as Megan Rose on 90210.
The climate change activist and his lady live in a house on the Eastside of Los Angeles.
However, his latest bombshell about his sexual preference has left fans intrigued.
Ronen has officially come out as a bisexual man. “I think culturally and socially, Latinx and queer people are forgotten. It’s either you faced insane amounts of profanity, like the F-word was thrown around all the time or you would get your ass kicked if you were gay.
And I think it’s a beautiful way to end the third season.”
He continued, “It was so emotional. Rafael L. Silva plays Carlos Reyes, a police officer with the Austin Police Department, who starts a romantic relationship with T.K. in Season 1 of 9-1-1: Lone Star. “And being part of the LGBTQIA+ community is considered everything but that.
And it's understandable because it's really nobody's business. The couple — who has been nicknamed “Tarlos” by fans — got engaged in Season 3 of 9-1-1: Lone Star.
“I think, all roads sort of led to here, but I just really appreciate the roller coaster ride that it took for us to get here,” Rubinstein told Out magazine in 2022 of Tarlos’ engagement.
