No, it’s not a joke either, despite all the people doing double-takes when we all saw her name and her now-husband’s name, comedian Yamasato Ryota (山里亮太), trending worldwide on Twitter.
After apparently two-months of dating, Yu Aoi and Ryota Yamasato submitted their marriage registration on June 3rd. They were apparently introduce by Yu-chan’s Hula Girls co-star Shizuyo Yamazaki (山崎静代), who is also Yamasato’s comedic partner in their comedy duo [1].
Congratulations! Took us all by surprise!
/edit/
I just sat through 1hr of Yu-chan and Yama-chan’s marriage conference, and that was so extra. I can’t even. xD
Highlights are the introduction of Shizu-chan, who changes the dynamic of the whole thing. Often making it play like a comedy duo married an actress. LOL People commenting on his looks, and Yu mentioning he looks better with other glasses, and Shizu-chan hitting with the must be with your blurry pair. DEAD.
Yama-chan’s proposal, and permission from Yu-chan’s dad— his only daughter.
My favorite FAVORITE part was when they posed for pictures, and Yu-chan put her arm out so Yama-chan could cling to hers, instead of her clinging to him. They seem honestly happy. I wish them the best.
Wonderful ! I hope they are just beyond happy ! Yamasato is hilarious as a member of the panel of Terrace House and, I think, cute as a button, disarming, clever, quirky and humble. Love this guy and I’m sure she is just as charming as her husband ! Congratulations !
