Matsu and Sahashi met each other in a musical event in 2001, but started their relationship in 2004. They were various reports over the years that their relationship had ended; one of the major reasons was said to be the disapproval of Matsu’s father about the relationship.

Some Japanese papers however reported in November that the couple is still together and were planning for their marriage, but Matsu’s agency had denied the reports.

According to Matsu… their marriage was not a sudden decision, but was thought carefully. She has no plan to retire from her entertainment career and hope that her friends and fans would continue to support her as always.

Takuya Kimura is arguably the most popular and influential Japanese artist, both in Japan and Asia for the past 10-12 years.
