Divorced single mom Yui Imaizumi returns to entertainment industry
Yui Imaizumi has announced that she is returning to the entertainment industry.
At the height of her fame and popularity in early 2021, the former Keyakizaka46 cutie announced she was pregnant and married to YouTuber Mahoto Watanabe. She was just 22 and he several years older.
But then the problems started, with revelations the Watanabe had been grooming a 15-year-old and that he was arrested in 2019 for allegedly beating up a previous girlfriend.
In March 2021, Watanabe was arrested on suspicion of violating the child prostitution and pornography law (because he had asked the schoolgirl to send him lewd photos), and promptly announced his retirement (his management agency dropped him in January).
Imaizumi ultimately announced her retirement from the entertainment industry in October 2022. In January 2024, it became public that she and Watanabe were divorced. She is now 26 and a single mom of two kids.
Watanabe is earning a crust by working as an editor for another YouTuber and has admitted to being violent toward Imaizumi.
While she did sexy shoots in the past, we suspect that Yui Imaizumi’s recent experiences, motherhood, and her general maturity will mean those are a thing of the past.
Other than an interview with Shueisha Online and accompanying photo shoot that was published on March 18, her only media work announced for now is an upcoming radio appearance on a local Shizuoka station.

you might wanna edit the ages earlier in the story, “10 years old”?!
@Jisatsu
Yes, indeed! Years older, of course.
Any mainstream actress become a JAV idol?
