Suzuki Ami announces her marriage and pregnancy

Suzuki Ami announced through her blog on 3 July that she has gotten married and that she is currently 3 months' pregnant. In her statement, Suzuki revealed that she registered her marriage with her husband on 1 July and described him as someone who could accept her for who she is and has been very supportive of her. As such, it was a natural progression for them to get married.

According to insiders, Suzuki's husband is a 27-year-old company employee i.e. 7 years younger than her who is more than 1.8m tall and holds the 5-dan rank in kendo. The couple met last autumn during Suzuki's overseas trip with her friend and went on a few meal dates after coming back to Japan. They started dating at the end of last year and began living together this spring before registering their marriage at the Setagaya Ward Office. Suzuki is also three months' pregnant and due to give birth in January next year. At present, there are no plans for a wedding. 1 July is also Suzuki's debut anniversary date.

Suzuki will appear during the "FEVER a-nation by SANKYO" held at Kokuritsu Yoyogi Daiichi Taiikukan on 2 August and continue with her work depending on her condition.
