Japanese actor Hiro Muzushima, 25, and singer-songwriter Ayaka, 21, have tied the knots on February 22nd, revealed the couple at a press conference in Tokyo on Friday. Japanese video below – the couple making the marriage announcement…
Hiro and Ayaka met each other in June 2008 during a magazine interview. There are speculations that it was a shotgun marriage because of the speedy wedding, but the couple denied the pregnancy rumour.
It was further revealed that Ayaka is suffering from an autoimmune disease and is taking a break from the entertainment industry, which is one of the reasons for their marriage as Hiro would like to take good care of her [via Unleashthegeek]
Congratulations, and hope that Ayaka will get better soon.
