On March 9, former SKE48 member and actress Natsuko (31) updated her Instagram account announcing that she's pregnant with her first child.

Natsuko shared a photo of herself embracing her belly and revealed that she will be giving birth to her son at the end of May. She said, "I wish I could say that I have come this far without any problems, but I have overcome many mountains. While appreciating this valuable experience, I hope to polish the vessel of my heart even more. Right now, I am doing well, and I hope to continue working before and after birth as long as my health allows me to."

Natsuko made her debut in showbiz at the age of 15. As an actress, she has starred in numerous dramas. She and her twin sister Akiko joined SDN48 as second-generation members in 2010. After the group disbanded in March of 2012, she has carried out her activities as "Kaden Joyuu" (Home Appliance Actress), and has been a regular member of TV Tokyo's 'Kaiun! Nandemo Kanteidan.' She married an engineer in December of 2018.
