Jesta Hillmann and Benoît Assadi announce separation

Jesta Hillmann and Benoît Assadi, prominent former contestants of the reality television show Koh-Lanta, have announced their separation. The couple, who met in 2016 during the filming of the show in Cambodia, were married for over seven years and had been together for a decade.

In a statement shared on Instagram, Hillmann revealed that the decision to separate was made several months ago. She noted that while they continued to appear together in public—including family photoshoots, the purchase of a ski apartment, and a summer trip to Tenerife—they had chosen to live through the initial stages of their separation privately.

The former couple, who are parents to three sons, emphasized their commitment to remaining a united family unit for the sake of their children, stating they will continue to support one another as parents.
