Satoda Mai has announced that she is 5 months pregnant.

Satoda, alongside her husband Tanaka Masahiro, posted a joint letter on her blog announcing the happy news:

I want to prepare myself for childbirth in mind and body while taking care of this beloved life that is growing daily. It would make us happy if you would watch over us warmly.

It’s certainly happy news to see Hello! Project members go on and form families and while we will have to wait and see what other details are released it’s certainly an amazing addition to the family.

We should be getting some more news relating to this by the end of the year, congrats Mai!
