Former SMAP member Tsuyoshi Kusanagi has become a father! The 51-year-old announced today the joyous news of the birth of his first child. He married his non-showbiz wife six years ago, and the couple have been living in a luxurious Tokyo mansion covering 200 tsubo, worth 560 million TWD (about 69.69 million MYR). Now, the happy news of their baby’s arrival has come, and netizens are all delighted for him. However, as Japanese celebrities are highly protective of their privacy, details such as the baby’s gender and nickname have not been disclosed.
Kusanagi and his wife started dating even before SMAP disbanded in 2016 and have been together for over 10 years. The wife is a long-haired beauty who reportedly resembles Korean star BoA and previously had no connection to the entertainment industry. He is the second SMAP member to get married, only after Takuya Kimura, but has just now welcomed his first child. He stated that he will continue to work hard in the entertainment industry and asked for everyone’s support, while also urging the Japanese media not to disturb mother and child.
