Picture of Japanese couple Erika Sawajiri and Tsuyoshi Takashiro married at Meiji ShirneJapanese star Erika Sawajiri, 22, and creative director Tsuyoshi Takashiro, 44, tied the knot on Monday (Jan 19) at Meiji Shrine in Shibuya, Tokyo.

Sawajiri was one of the most promising Japanese actresses after starring in drama series “1 Litre of Tears” in 2005, but her career took a downturn in 2007 with some sulky attitude issues.

It was around the 2007 period that her relationship with Takashiro was exposed; the couple later moved to London with Sawajiri taking a long break from the entertainment industry.

It had been rumoured for months that the couple would be getting married, but it was until early January that they finally confirmed about their wedding plan [image from Sankei (Jp)]

    She looks like her mother, if it is her mother in the back.
    I don’t think Erika-sama will ever have the same popularity as she did after 1 litre of tears.

    I think it’s her mother indeed… they do share similar face figures.

    I don’t think she will be as popular as she used to be too… I wonder if she’s interested to comeback to entertainment world at all.

    almost 20 years age gap? iguess age really doesnt matter at all…or does the money?hmmm just curious.

    I don’t think her husband is super rich… it’s probably not about money.
