We love a good gravure comeback.
After 37-year-old Ami Tokito's return to gravure, Reiko Kato's reappearance after many years away, and Mayumi Yamanaka's comeback after marrying and having two kids, now comes Mari Okamoto.
Best known as an impersonator who could do a good impression of Ryoko Hirosue (whom she resembles quite strikingly) and who also made past forays into gravure, Okamoto married a music producer in 2015 and had a child, but they divorced in 2018. She remarried a Saitama politician in December 2023, though divorced again the following year.
