Takako Uehara’s Life After Embracing a New Chapter with Her Extramarital Partner and Two Children
It was a sunny autumn evening when we spotted former SPEED member Takako Uehara in her hometown of Okinawa. A handsome man resembling Toru Kazama was sitting in the driver’s seat of the black Land Cruiser that Uehara had shown up to pick up her two children at the daycare center where she takes care of them. The man was not her husband, but Mr. T, a businessman with whom she was having an affair. The following is a recap of details based on an article distributed on November 7, 2023 (ages and titles in the article are current at the time of publication).

The nursery school, located in the center of Naha City, Okinawa Prefecture, is known for its high awareness of the SDGs, including its commitment to high-quality childcare for the realization of the SDGs.
Local star and SPEED member, Takako Uehara (40), has her eldest son and daughter enrolled at the preschool, and the sight of her picking up and dropping off her children in her Volkswagen has become a bit of a local topic of conversation. Occasionally, a handsome man resembling Toru Kazama comes to pick up Uehara’s children.
For example, on a clear autumn evening a black Land Cruiser arrived near the nursery.
As soon as Uehara received her child from the childcare worker, she ran to him with a smile on her face, but the handsome man behind the wheel was neither her husband nor the children’s father.
An acquaintance of Uehara’s says that the handsome man was not her husband.
The attractive man is a businessman named Mr. T, who was her lover. According to the profile he shared during a seminar, Mr. T is from Kanagawa. After achieving significant sales as a salesman for a real estate company specializing in investment, he ventured out on his own. He is a diligent businessman who established his own real estate company in Okinawa.
What in the world is going on?
As mentioned above, Uehara took the world by storm with SPEED, which she formed with three members from her hometown. After the group disbanded in 2000, she worked as an actress.
She was in love with ISSA (44) of “DA PUMP” and Jin Akanishi (39), but in 2012 she married Tenn of the hip-hop group “ET-KING”. Just when it seemed she had settled down, tragedy struck in 2014 when her husband took his own life. About three years after the heartbreaking event, ‘Josei Seven’ publicly disclosed TENN’s suicide note, revealing that the cause of his suicide was Uehara’s infidelity, leading to a major uproar.

Uehara was almost banned from the entertainment world. Her husband, Mr. A, who was working as a stage director at the time, saved her.
