Today's shocker: https://twitter.com/cloverblossoms_/status/1219870663877386240 "Anne (33) and Higashide Masahiro (31) rumored to divorce, reported by Shukan Bunshun. Agency acknowledged that they are currently living separately.

As the saying goes, "You can't fix stupid".

Let's see, Anne's father, Ken Watanabe cheated on Anne's mother. Now this. Wouldn't surprise me if Anne decides to never have anything to do with men again.

I haven't seen any of her dramas, but from what I've heard, she's pretty good. Good enough to get the lead in last year's asadora 'Natuszora'. Hope she comes out of this okay:https://mainichi.jp/english/articles/20201007/p2g/00m/0et/022000c

Unless they decide to do a remake of the 1980 taiga 'Shishi no Jidai" which was partially done in Paris, I guess we won't be seeing much of Anne for awhile.

Actress Anne has relocated to France

The other day, Anne announced on YouTube that she and her children would be relocating to France. In her latest Instagram post, she wrote, "Long time no see! I'm in France now! I'm not ready to settle down and start a new life, but... But everything has to start from here. So, firstly, I arrived safely!"

She continued, "I will continue to do exciting things in France and Tokyo! I'm looking forward to doing more and more exciting things. Probably, I will post in English and French as a study. Correct my grammar whenever you notice some! I want to study more!"
