Hey! Say! JUMP's 薮宏太(Kota Yabu) Reportedly Living With A Woman 2 Years His Senior

Few days ago, idol group Hey! Say! JUMP held a two-day concert performance in Tokyo Dome mobilizing 110,000 people. According to the latest issue of Friday magazine released on May 16th, 2014, the leader of Hey! Say! JUMP, Kota Yabu(薮宏太) (24) is reportedly living a beautiful woman 2 years his senior.


As stated by the magazine, the two started dating after a club event in Tokyo in May of last year. 

At the time, the said woman was working at a restaurant in Tokyo. It is said Yabu would often go see her at the restaurant until the agency told him to put a stop to it. The two then started living together at the end of last summer. 

In February of this year, something catastrophic happened where the two were almost broken up and the woman ended up taking a leave of absence from the restaurant. However, it is said the event somehow deepened their relationship with each other. In the pictures taken by the magazine in April, you can see the two love birds showing their affection for each other. 


Previously, Yabu stated that he would want to quit Johnny's by the time when he's 30 years old. It is believed he would want to get married with a woman by then. 

"In autumn of last year, it was reported that Yabu was found holding hands and dating with a girl. The news caused an uproar on the internet. At the time, the said woman was rumored to be actress 桐谷美玲(Mirei Kiritani) (24). The Tokyo Dome concert seemed to be a success but with the rise of younger groups from Johnny's, they may get overshadowed soon. Personally, I don't think Yabu's scandal would affect the group's popularity."

Speaking of Yabu, he's appearing in a drama series "Howaito Rabo - Keishicho Tokubetsu Kagaku Sosahan(ホワイト・ラボ~警視庁特別科学捜査班~)" that is currently being broadcast on TBS. He's also currently enrolled in Waseda University studying communication. It seems he's putting emphasis on other activities besides Hey! Say! JUMP.
