Actor Shinobu Otake appeared on Tetsuko Kuroyanagi's long-running talk show "Tetsuko's Room" (TV Asahi) broadcast on June 23rd. She talked about events related to her ex-husband Sanma Akashiya.
She has been divorced for 33 years. She was married to Sanma for four years. A long time ago, when she visited his hospice and sang a song, a stranger said to her as if he was saying, "Sanma is a good guy." "I was really worried about what to do. I thought that everyone had an image of me."
IMALU was born to Sanma. "I can't say we're ever going to be apart. I want to meet up every now and then and tell her all about my life."
Once, when I told Sanma, "I'll be appearing tomorrow (on a show that Sanma is appearing on)," he replied, "What? But I was supposed to be a surprise guest."
