The local paper offered congratulations but..

She is probably going to have to go back to yachting.

The former figure skating star from Japan announced the news in a social media post on Friday (17 November).

In a statement released on X, Hanyu said the following:

I have married a civilian.

We married with the determination to respect and cherish each other.

We have overcome many obstacles together while thinking about various things in order to protect each other. In such a life, my partner supported me to protect me, even though she could not step out of the house for a long time.

Currently, various media outlets are slandering, stalking, and conducting unauthorised interviews and reports against my partner, who is a civilian, their relatives, and associates, as well as against my relatives and associates. Even in our living space, we are sometimes prowled by suspicious vehicles or persons, or suddenly accosted. Together, we have worked to somehow protect each other from these situations, despite our concerns.

However, due to my immatureness, it has been extremely difficult and unbearable to continue to protect my partner and myself in the current situation.

With the possibility of this situation continuing, and the possibility that even if the situation temporarily improves, it may become like this again, when I think about the future, I have made the decision to divorce because I want my partner to be happy and to be happy without restriction.

From now on, please refrain from slander, unauthorised interviewing, reporting, or any other disturbing behaviour toward my partner, who is a civilian, their relatives, and associates, as well as my relatives and associates.

I sincerely ask that you do so. I will continue to move forward.

Thank you for your continued support.
