QuoteDisplay More“My relationship with Mr Toba is as described in the article,” wrote the mother of three. Her husband of 12 years is candle artist Jun Izutsu. She was previously married to model Takahiro Okazawa.
“Above all, I feel sorry for the sadness and pain I have caused to Mr Toba’s family.”
“I would like to say ‘I’m sorry’ directly to my own family and children. They have understood and accepted me as an immature mother.”
Separately, Toba, who reportedly has children with his non-celebrity wife, also admitted to the affair on Twitter, writing: “Everything was caused by my weakness and immaturity despite being a public figure.”
