 On her Instagram, she reported as follows: &#8220;I&#8217;m five months pregnant, which is generally considered to be a stable period, but I don&#8217;t know what will happen, and with everything that&#8217;s happened in the past, I don&#8217;t think there is a stable period. However, I have had to turn down some jobs that were offered to me, and I am sorry for any inconvenience I may cause in the future.
Kataoka wrote about her sad experience of having two miscarriages. In an interview with &#8220;Sankei Sports&#8221; (January 19), Kataoka spoke frankly about her difficult situation at the time.
 At the end of the year before last, my stomach started hurting and I started bleeding, and when I went to the hospital, they said, &#8216;It must have flowed. &#8230;
<h2>The second time was last June, but the baby didn&#8217;t grow and died inside me&#8230;&#8221; &#8220;Brother, your tag is showing.</h2>
Kataoka&#8217;s joy must be great as he finally reached a stable stage for the third time. Kataoka started playing baseball when she was in the third grade, and was selected for the Japanese women&#8217;s national team four years in a row from 2002. Her partner is also a former professional baseball player.
 We met in the summer of 2003. We met in the summer of 2003. Mr. Kobayashi and Kataoka were invited by an acquaintance to have a drink together at an izakaya in Tokyo. Mr. Kobayashi was wearing a suit, but the dry cleaning tag was still attached to the collar.
 Then Kataoka whispered to him, &#8220;Brother, the tag is sticking out. Attracted by his thoughtfulness and friendliness, Mr. Kobayashi attacked him. They started dating soon after.&#8221; (Reporter for a sports newspaper)

Mr. Kobayashi is currently running a ramen restaurant in Hakusan, Tokyo. Kataoka is said to be supporting the restaurant. In an interview with &#8220;FRIDAY&#8221; (January 27, 2005 issue), Mr. Kobayashi talked about Kataoka&#8217;s charm.
 Sometimes she [Kataoka] helps me out at the restaurant. Sometimes she (Kataoka) helps me out at the restaurant. She drives all the way from Ibaraki to come to the restaurant and takes the initiative in buying things and preparing the food.
 She also works as a TV personality, so I&#8217;m sure she&#8217;s familiar with the glamorous industry, but she&#8217;s actually a very thrifty and serious person who loves her parents. I was also attracted to her family-oriented nature.
Kataoka is planning to add a new member to her family in the summer. She and her husband, a ramen store manager, will continue to raise a warm and cheerful family.
