I am happy to announce the birth of our first child. On September 26, actress Shuri (35) announced the birth of her first child on Instagram, jointly with her husband Ryoki Miyama (26), aka RYOKI of BE:FIRST, whom she announced her marriage to on August 29. Miyama, who has the “world’s dirtiest handwriting,” showed “anomalies” in her handwritten comment on the announcement of her marriage. She continued, “I would like to thank our parents, the people around us who supported us until the birth, the doctors who took us in, and the people at the maternity hospital who supported us,” and expressed her determination for the future. Shuri’s parents, actor Yutaka Mizutani (73) and former Candies actress Ran Ito (70), are one of the biggest celebrity couples in Japan. Ito also commented on Instagram with a photo of a bouquet of flowers, “This is the season when Shuri was born…I am really deeply moved as it also coincides with my own memories. Please cherish and nurture her precious life. Mizutani, the father, also made a comment through his office. Congratulations to Shuri and Ryoki! Our dinner party, which started last year, will now be even more lively with the addition of one more person. I hope you will continue to believe in yourselves and lead a positive life together as you have always done,” he wrote, giving encouragement to the two now parents. Mizutani, who became a “grandfather,” expressed his deepest feelings, but in fact, it seems that he had been hesitating before he made this comment. Mizutani had been talking about Shuri and Miyama’s marriage and pregnancy even before the official announcement, but Mizutani had consistently remained silent until this day. In April this year, Shukan Bunshun (Weekly Bunshun) reported that Shuri and Miyama had broken off their engagement to a famous YouTuber to whom Shuri had been engaged in the past, after he had paid her over 100 million yen. Shuri and Miyama started dating at the beginning of this year and were planning to announce their marriage in May, but this report put an end to those plans. Mizutani was also said to be quite upset when he first learned of Miyama’s troubles through the news report, and he gave an implied response to a direct question from “Josei Seven”: “I haven’t heard anything about it, Mizutani, who has consistently respected his daughter’s wishes as a father ever since Shuri was born, was forced to take a hard stance in response to the series of news reports. Mizutani was very happy about the couple’s marriage until the trouble was reported, and he was planning to take the opportunity of the marriage to welcome Miyama, for whom he had high expectations as an actor, into his own private agency. However, the news report put an end to the transfer. At a “family meeting” held by Mizutani’s family, he gave Shuri a stern “ultimatum,” saying, “Even if you have another affair or some other trouble with a woman, I’ll never help you. I heard that they gave Shuri a stern “ultimatum,” saying, “We will never help you even if you have another affair or some other trouble with a woman. A person in the entertainment industry who knows Mizutani saw a “parental love” in it. According to the media reports, Shuri and Miyama started dating this year, but Mizutani said, “Our dinner party started last year,” implying that the relationship has been going on since before the media reports. Mizutani also referred to Mr. Miyama by his first name, Ryoki, suggesting that they were building a close relationship. I believe that he was helping Mr. Miyama, who was exposed to criticism due to the trouble reports and would face difficulties in his entertainment activities in the future, as a father-in-law. Will Miyama be able to fly again?
