In April 2020, Yuki Tomoe made headlines by getting married to Mitsuo, a male fan of hers. Currently, he runs his own channel where he showcases his love for food.
During a broadcast, Yuki honestly talked about the process leading to their marriage and the reactions of those around them. Yuki described her husband as someone who was referred to as an “otaku” (a person with obsessive interests, typically in anime and manga).
She said that before they met, her husband was more interested in her group members. However, he became fascinated by Yuki during her idol activities afterward. As they met through live performances and broadcasts as an idol and a fan, they began to like each other. Yuki then revealed that she confessed her feelings to him, saying, “I grew to like him more.”
Yuki did not date during her idol activities, and their relationship only developed into a romantic one after she graduated and introduced him to her parents and asked for their permission. While listening to the story, the MC asked, “He is 27 years older, so how did your parents react?”
Yuki’s husband and her parents are said to be of the same age. Yuki’s mother has said “I accept whoever Tomoe chooses” as a habit since Yuki was little. So there was no conflict with parents.
Although Yuki got her parents’ understanding, she also heard heartless remarks from people around her, such as “Your husband will die early and you’ll have to live alone” and “You’ll have to take care of your parents, your husband and your husband’s parents for the rest of your life. Endure it well.“
However, Yuki responded with a firm attitude, “I got married after overcoming such a problem. I thought it’d be nice if no one else intervened. I think pursuing happiness on your own is the most important thing in your life.“
