Golnesa Gharachedaghi is currently single and exploring her love life. Recently, she revealed that she joined the exclusive dating app Raya during a January 23 episode of Scheana Shay’s podcast, “Scheananigans.” As a cast member on “The Valley: Persian Style,” Golnesa mentioned that she is on the waiting list for the dating platform, making this her first experience with online dating.
Katie’s Insight on Dating

Advice from Scheana Shay
Scheana expressed surprise that Golnesa was waitlisted and suggested she expand her search beyond Los Angeles. She mentioned her own successful relationship with husband Brock Davies, which began in San Diego. Golnesa reacted eagerly to this tip, declaring her intent to explore dating opportunities there.
Reassessing Relationship Goals
While ready to explore romance, Golnesa stated she isn’t traditionally inclined towards relationships. “I’m not afraid of saying that,” she asserted. She emphasized her desire to remain in control of her life path, having chosen to conceive her five-year-old son, Elijah Javad Gharachedaghi, through IVF without connection to a partner.
What Golnesa Looks for in a Partner
Golnesa expressed a keen interest in finding someone who is equally focused on their own life and career. “I need space to thrive,” she said, highlighting her independence as a Sagittarius.
A Glimpse into Golnesa’s Past Relationships

- Marriage to Shalom Yeroushalmi: Tied the knot in early 2017; divorced nearly two years later.

Golnesa’s relationship with Dennis deteriorated quickly, particularly after learning of his involvement with a mutual friend post-split. Reflecting on the situation, she acknowledged her own reservations about the marriage, stating, “I didn’t really want to marry Dennis.” This candid revelation showcases her complex view on love and relationships.
