Akinomaki 40,236 Posted June 9, 2012 It has been disclosed that maegashira Shotenro is married to Kyokutenho's younger sister, Hishigsuren Nyamjav. The 29-year-old rikishi and his 34-year-old bride began their relationship two years ago and registered the marriage after July's Nagoya Basho. By Kyokai regulation, the two brothers-in-law will be prohibited from facing each other in regularly scheduled honbasho bouts. The exception would be a yusho ketteisen. Today on the 9th was the wedding reception in a Tokyo hotel. 350 guests, Hakuho and Kyokutenho among them and relatives from Mongolia. Shotenro (now 30) said he was deeply moved by his wife's (33) kimono appearance. He said that thanks to his wife's cooking, he got used to fish and vegetables he didn't like. Kyokutenho: "Knowing him since coming to Japan, I feel relieved. With my yusho it's two happy events coming together." From Nikkan Sports Shotenro: "What a thing if we meet in a yusho kettei-sen" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kintamayama 44,886 Posted February 12, 2013 Announcing their engagement: Kotoshogiku and Makiko Fukuchi. The marriage registration is planned for after the Kyushu basho, the party for April the 20th. "It's really regrettable," said Kotoshougiku, announcing his un-marriage.today. "After Hatsu we had a discussion, and this is the result..After we announced our engagement, things seem to have fallen apart. We already sent out the invitations to many people, and that is inexcusable.." he added. The wedding was supposed to take place in April, but they hadn't submitted a wedding registration yet.. An apology was sent to all those that received invitations. "I've been dealing with my feelings and hope to lift them for Haru..I'd like to repay my fans' support by winning in Haru," said the sad man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fay 1,677 Posted February 12, 2013 Sorry for Kotoshogiku but happy for my wallet. No party I have to join. I wonder what discussions one could have with Kotoshogiku, one of the nicest men around. As I said, he should have stayed with his "old" girlfriend ;-) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
