The celebrity, largely adored for her charm and talent, is now stepping into her new role as a mother, drawing nationwide attention and well-wishes in Japan.

In Japan, the birth of a child, particularly to celebrities, often receives widespread media attention and public interest. It embodies the societal values of family-oriented approach, children being the symbol of happiness, and continuation of family legacy. Moreover, celebrity life in Japan is unique in a way that they genuinely strive to maintain a good public image, showcasing their wholesome family life whenever possible.

The level of interest and positive response in such news is also common in the U.S. or EU. The birth of a child is celebrated and shared across various media channels. The difference though is that Western celebrities often seek privacy in such personal moments whereas, in Japan, sharing life's private moments can be considered a part of maintaining a wholesome public image.
