Kazuchika Okada and Suzuko Mimori are going to be parents.
The reigning IWGP World Heavyweight Champion Kazuchika Okada got married in 2019 to actress and singer Suzuko Mimori in 2019. The couple is now expecting their first child together. Mimori formally announced the news on her blog.
We are pleased to announce that we are expecting our first child, due in August.
We have been waiting for this little life for a long time. I spend my days being both moved and worried as my belly grows bigger and bigger. I will continue to take good care of myself until the day the baby is born safely.
I will continue to do my best to attend events and work as much as possible, while keeping a close eye on my health.
I would like to thank everyone involved for their consideration and understanding even before the announcement.
