Natsume Miku, NHK’s Wakuda, Kuwako… “Happily married” photos of female announcers
“I’m leaving this world, but thanks to all of you, I’ve been able to make it this far. Thank you so much.”
On September 30, I participated in a live broadcast of TV Asahi’s “Matsuko & Ariyoshi Anger Shinto: Disband! Live 2-hour Special” on TV Asahi on September 30, it was freelance announcer Mitsuhisa Natsume (37) who gave this speech. On the program, her husband Hiroyuki Ariyoshi (47), who got married in April, blurted out, “I’m sorry I look like a husband. I’m sorry I look like a husband,” he said, laughing at his wife who was retiring from the TV industry.
The newlyweds were spotted in Daikanyama, Tokyo, in May of this year. It was impressive that Ariyoshi was firmly holding the leash of Natsume’s dog, a toy poodle.
“The dog was walking around the same place in circles, as if it had a set walking course. When the dog peed on the wall of a building, the two of them would squat down and Natsume would quickly take out a plastic bottle from her bag and pour water all over it,” said a housewife in the neighborhood.
Natsume and Ariyoshi are not the only ones who are enjoying a happy married life. This magazine often catches the happy faces of female announcers. We hope you can feel their aura of happiness.
A pure white wedding in the middle of the city
A night in August 2007. In the evening of August 2007, Mayuko Wakuda (32), anchor of NHK’s “Newswatch 9”, was dressed in a pure white wedding dress in front of a large commercial building in Nihonbashi, Tokyo.
“The wedding reception ended in the evening. The reception ended in the evening and the after party was held at a bar lounge in Nihonbashi. The wedding party ended in the evening and the after party was held at a bar lounge in Nihonbashi. The dress was designed with an open back, and the attendees all exclaimed, “It’s so beautiful! (An acquaintance of Anna Wakuda’s)
Her partner is said to be an “ordinary person,” but he is actually a well-known figure in the track and field world.
“He was a star athlete on the Waseda University track and field team. Not only was he famous as one of the most handsome men in the Ekiden world, but he also played a dead heat with Ryuji Kashiwabara of Toyo University, the “God of the Mountains,” in the 2011 Hakone Ekiden, contributing greatly to Waseda University’s victory. After graduating from university, he joined one of the five major trading companies. He met Anna Wakuda through a friend after he entered the workforce,” said an acquaintance of the groom.
As they were the envy of all the elites, the guests at the ceremony were also gorgeous.
“The groom’s side was from a trading company, and his wife was from the same company. The groom’s side was attended by members of the winning team of the Hakone Ekiden, including the bigwigs of the trading company. Yasuyuki Watanabe, who was the coach of the race team when he was a student, was also there.
Pre-wedding drive date” in a luxury car
In the evening of January this year, a blue BMW stopped on the shoulder of a main street in Minato Ward, Tokyo. The woman in the car looked around to make sure no one was around, then got out of the car and walked with her head down to avoid being seen. Then, the moment she enters the alley to her apartment, she smiles and gives a small wave to the man in the driver’s seat.
They are actor Yukiyoshi Ozawa (47) and NHK announcer Maho Kuwako (34), who got married in September. This magazine had caught Ozawa and Maho on a “pre-wedding drive date.
“At the time, Kuwako was on her way to work at 3 in the morning. After work, she met with Mr. Ozawa, who lived nearby, every day. They had already introduced each other to their parents.
September 1, the day they submitted their marriage registration, was a special day for their families. It was the 86th birthday of Seiji Ozawa’s father, the world-famous conductor. It would have been the best birthday present for his beloved parents.
Umbrellas in the Storm
The couple, who just got married at the end of 2008, seem to be enjoying a hot married life.
In the early afternoon of March, I caught Fuji TV’s Moemi Hisashiro (31) and popular YouTube star Harukun (26) coming out of their apartment in Tokyo under a shared umbrella. Anna Hisayo tried to stop the cab, but it didn’t show up and she was exposed to the heavy rain and wind. Unable to bear the sight of them, Harukun took his beloved wife under the eaves of a nearby building and went to the street alone. They stopped a cab and got in together.
“Before they got married, they were living together in Harukun’s apartment, but around the same time they joined the family, they bought a room in a tower apartment. The condo is located in one of the most prestigious areas in Tokyo, and the price is about 150 million yen. Even within the station, people say, ‘As expected of a popular YouTube star with 1.2 million subscribers’ (laughs)” (Fuji TV insider).
(laughs)” In front of their loved ones, the female announcers show a different smile than on TV. We can’t help but smile at their happiness.
