Actress Hirosue Ryoko has announced her divorce from artist Candle June.

Through her agency's official website, Hirosue wrote, "This is a personal matter, but after discussion with Hirosue Jun-san, we have come to an agreement and have filed for a divorce."

She also revealed, "Regarding the custody of our children, I will continue to live together with them as their guardian." Then she stated, "Worried that I might cause even more trouble concerning my private life, I honestly thought about whether or not I should announce my divorce. However, I decided to go through with it with hopes that this announcement will put an end to this case, and that my children won't have to worry even more." 

Back in June, it was reported that Hirosue was involved in an extramarital affair with Michelin-star chef Toba Shusaku. After she admitted to the affair, FLaMme announced that the actress will face disciplinary action for an indefinite period.
