[JAPAN] Wada Akiko consoles DREAMS COME TRUE vocalist Yoshida Miwa at Kouhaku Uta Gassen rehearsals

Yoshida Miwa (42) hasn’t been in the public eye so much since the death of her husband Sueda Takeshi back in September but it was announced that DREAMS COME TRUE would perform at Kouhaku Uta Gassen on New Year’s Eve, a lot of people and fans have wondered how the singer has been doing.

Back in October, fellow bandmate showed concern posting on the official website that Yoshida puts on a brave face but is not ready to perform in front of people.

Sueda and Yoshida have announced their marriage back in May of 2004 but never entered the family register.

Sueda’s condition worsened around August but insisted that Yoshida Miwa continue her concert tour with DREAMS COME TRUE but after each concert, spent each time at her husband’s side.

Sueda Ken is a director and is known for his work for directing the music videos for Dreams Come True, EXILE, Hamasaki Ayumi and Byon Hon.

At Kouhaku Uta Gassen rehearsals, Wada Akiko (57) was seen consoling Yoshida Miwa (42) both in tears for nearly two minutes.
