UPDATE: Akanishi Jin & Kuroki Meisa registered their marriage before telling their agencies?

This morning's news has more details about the sudden deki-kon than last night's fax statement so I'll be putting them in point form. Well, frankly speaking, to get married before letting their agencies is a big taboo in the entertainment industry and brings to mind what Mizushima Hiro and ayaka did. However, circumstances were different then because ayaka wasn't pregnant but Kuroki is and the official reason for getting married was that Mizushima wanted to support and take care of ayaka who was ill then. As such, the impression which the general public would have about Akanishi and Kuroki will be different for sure. It will be worth observing if their careers will be affected by this "rebellious" act.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Akanishi and Kuroki got married on 2 Feb without informing their agencies. Some reports mention that the agencies only came to know about it from the articles which came out yesterday while some articles say that Kuroki did inform her agency after the registration while Akanishi said nothing about this to his agency Johnny's Jimusho. Apparently, Johnny's only got wind of it from yesterday's articles.

- They reportedly knew each other from some years back and only started dating this year.

- The fax statements did not mention whether Kuroki was pregnant. However, most sources quoted an insider saying Kuroki is indeed two months' pregnant and will give birth in October.

- Before they registered their marriage, the couple went to Kuroki's hometown in Nago City, Okinawa Prefecture, to meet her family on 27 Jan.

- Kuroki mentioned in her statement that she will continue working and asked for support from the public. Akanishi is due to go to the US for work soon so the two will be living apart for a while.

- There are no plans for a wedding as of now.

- The relationship first came to light in mid Jan when reports of their dates at Tokyo DisneySea and an izakaya in Naka Meguro were published. Both agencies denied the relationship at that time and claimed that they were friends. (Now, this feels like a slap in the agencies' faces and a big dent to the credibility of these two artistes)
