In Japan they love using charts in the mornings. They assemble the charts while describing a piece of news. The most interesting news is always about famous couple’s relationship troubles.
“Iris” was on the news yesterday.

Here we see her beside her “TOY BOY” with 不倫 (“adultery”) in a heart in the middle, along with 40歳差 (“40 year age gap”).

And here we see that she’s married with 3 children to Peter Robinson.

The presenter reminds us that they have been married for 40 years (結婚40周年) and that they are an “ideal couple” (理想の夫婦).

Finally we are presented with the “secrets” (秘) recently discovered: a confession of unfaithfulness March last year, and a suicide attempt.
Ha. Didn’t know Iris was such a global icon. Great to see you using this again.
日本人にはよくわからないけれど
このスキャンダルはどう受け止めているの??
現恋人とされている少年の父親とも
議員は恋していたというし。
若かりしころの父親の面影があったのかなぁ。
コメントを書いてくれてありがとう!
どう受け止めてるかな?このスキャンダルがニュースになってから僕がずっと日本にいたからアイルランドにいる人に聞いたほうがいいかも。
Anyone in Ireland care to comment on what sort of reactions there are to this news in Ireland right now?
