Former Seibu player Haruka Yamada, who is alleged to have had an affair with her husband, says that she will never divorce him.

On January 18, “Shukan Bunshun” reported the alleged W affair between Haruka Yamada (26) of Nippon Ham and former HKT48 member Riko Tsutsui (22). According to the article, Yamada and Tsutsui stayed at a luxury hotel in Saga City and other places while both were married. It also reported that Tsutsui visited Yamada’s parents’ home.

Speaking of Yamada, it was revealed last September that his wife, Ako, had slandered his then Seibu Lions teammate Sousuke Genda (29) and his wife on SNS for two years. It is unclear whether this was the cause of the affair, but Yamada was transferred to NIHAM last offseason.

Therefore, when the “affair” was reported, some people on the Internet thought that the couple had already broken up. However, the facts are different. A baseball team official who knows Yamada well speaks out.

Immediately after the slanderous slander scandal of last September, Yamada told everyone around him that he would never divorce. He said, ‘My wife has helped me a lot in the past, and I didn’t kill anyone. I never want to leave my son either. His wife also seemed remorseful, and I thought they would continue to get along and continue their family. ……

Yamada responded to the allegations of infidelity by admitting to staying at the hotel, but denying any relationship between the man and woman. He also said, ” You don’t know how much I’ve been through with my current wife,” and “I want to go my separate way from my wife. Within three months of his “no divorce” statement, he had made a complete turnaround, and was now taking action toward divorce. Another person related to Yamada’s baseball team testified, “Yamada’s change of heart was too sudden.

Another person involved with Yamada’s baseball team testified, “Yamada’s sudden change of heart has led to rumors among those involved that they may have had a relationship even before the slanderous slander scandal. Currently, Yamada has left his wife and son in Tokyo and returned to his parents’ home in Saga. Tsutsui lives mainly in Fukuoka, so he is probably at his parents’ house to see her. We have heard that Ako and Yamada’s divorce has not been finalized because Yamada has not returned to Tokyo and discussions have not progressed. Yamada is a very childlike couple, and they were originally really close. …… I wonder how it came to this.”

At New Year’s this year, Tsutsui’s father, who was reported as the adulterous partner, uploaded a photo of him and Yamada in suits on his Instagram. The turmoil may become even more complicated.
