Renowned musician Hikaru ended her marriage after merely six months, making a swift exit from her marital commitment. Announcements were made recently, stirring up discussions around the quick turnaround from wedded bliss to divorce. The reasons behind the divorce have not been explicitly publicised, leaving fans and followers to speculate over the quick unraveling of the marriage.
In Japan, the institution of marriage is traditionally held in high regard and divorces usually carry a negative stigma. Celebrity divorces, in particular, attract much scrutiny due to the public's interest in their personal lives and the influence of their actions on societal norms.
Similarly in the US or EU, celebrity marriages and divorces are often the topic of tabloid fodder, with audiences keenly interested in the reasons underlying high-profile splits. However, attitudes around divorce are evolving, with the process seen more as a personal decision rather than a societal concern.
