On May 3, actor Kaku Kento updated his Instagram account expressing his anger toward certain tabloid magazines.

He wrote, "I am willing to concede and forgive you for taking nonconsensual photos of me. However, if you publish nonconsensual photos of my child again even if you pixelate the face, I will be really angry. Please stop. This is the last time I will be saying this." 

Kaku married actress Eikura Nana on August 7, 2016 after co-starring in the drama 'N no Tame ni' in 2014. They had their first child in June of 2017, then their second in February of this year.
