It’s been revealed that former Morning Musume member, Ichii Sayaka, had divorced her husband, Yoshizawa Naoki, on May 23rd.
According to the latest issue of “Josei Jishin“, Sayaka was dissatisfied with her husband’s uncooperative attitude in raising their two daughters. She was also said to be frustrated with Yoshizawa when he quit being a guitarist and settled into a period where he had no work.
Ichii’s agency admitted that it is true that the couple divorced, but they did not disclose the reason why.
Ichii was a member of Morning Musume from 1998 ~ 2000, and after graduating from the group, she formed “Ichii Sayaka in CUBIC-CROSS” with Yoshizawa and Taisei from Sharam Q in 2002. She retired from the entertainment industry in 2003, and married Yoshizawa in 2004. Although Ichii was dedicated to raising her children, she made a comeback to the entertainment industry in 2009.
