A-chan reported that she had married a “general man,” and that he is a “best friend who has been my friend for a long time and knows many things about each other, and a fan who supports me and Perfume with all his heart. In fact, the “fan” of the “general man” is Mr. Yukihiro Yoshida, the fourth president of Yoshida Corporation, which manufactures bags such as “PORTER” (Yoshida Kaban),” (source in the entertainment industry). The founder, Kichizo Yoshida, is Yukihiro’s grandfather. Kichizo’s eldest son, Shigeru, and second son, Teruyuki, each served as president, and Teruyuki’s son, Yukihiro, is currently the fourth president. Yukihiro joined Yoshida Co., Ltd. after graduating from Keio University with a bachelor’s degree in commerce, and became president at the age of 36. The company is doing well, with sales in excess of 20 billion yen. I heard that he and A-chan, now 36, started out as friends, introduced by an acquaintance. Sometimes, he would even give her advice on her love life. A~chan has been dating another man for the past several years, but the relationship broke up and she recently became lovers with Mr. Yoshida. Once they started dating, they rapidly became closer, and it seems that they got married quickly.
Looking back, I see a lot of PORTERs.
A peek at Nishiwaki’s Instagram shows that she has uploaded several photos of herself wearing a PORTER bag. For example, in a post reporting her visit to a cafe on August 15 this year, she was carrying a blue shoulder bag that matched her summery sleeveless outfit. The flower decorations were eye-catching, and the commenters praised the bag, saying, “The bag is so cute,” and “I like the Porter bag. In a post reporting the birthday of her dog on the 5th of the same month, she also uploaded a video of her dogs peeking out of a black and orange backpack that is typical of Porter. He also frequently uploaded videos of his collaborations with other brands. Since she is a “fan,” President Yoshida may have introduced many of the company’s products to A~-chan. When fans see this photo, they may understand what she means. The collaboration was also sold as special goods for Perfume’s fan club in 2023. At the time of the collaboration, Yoshida and A-chan were not yet in a relationship, but their relationship later developed. She wrote on her Instagram page to report her marriage, “It was my dream to marry a fan,” but she may not have dreamed not long ago that she would become husband and wife with Mr. Yoshida, who had always been close to her. Mr. Yukihiro, who inherited his grandfather’s philosophy, is sure to weave love stitch by stitch and build a wonderful family.
