Kuroda Yuki: “It doesn’t matter if I’m not related by blood to my son” – The real reason for divorce due to inability to test the child’s DNA Kuroda Yuki (42) was a prodigy child actor in the 1980s and 1990s. Currently, in addition to his acting career, he is active in many areas, including film direction, stage production and direction. She attracted unexpected attention in July of this year when she announced her second divorce. He had previously tweeted on social media, “Maybe it wasn’t my child after all,” which led to speculation that brood parasitism was the reason for their divorce. Brood parasitism occurs when a wife gives birth to a child with a man other than her husband and passes it off as her husband’s biological child, making the other person believe that the child is her husband’s and raising it. When we interviewed Kuroda, he revealed the reasons that led to his divorce and his feelings toward his ex-wife and children. ■I was suddenly told that I couldn’t have an abortion because I was eight months pregnant. –When I got divorced, the keyword “egg-laying” was trending online and caused a big reaction. There are a lot of misunderstandings about it. To begin with, it didn’t matter to her whether her son was her real child or not. The circumstances that led to us getting married were very unusual. My ex-wife was an actress, but one week before she was due to appear in a play, she suddenly told me she couldn’t have an abortion because she was eight months pregnant, so we decided to get married on short notice. They had a physical relationship but were not in a relationship. But if things continue like this, I feel sorry for the child. “Then let’s get married and have the baby.” I asked my ex-wife to perform on stage as much as possible, with her health being a top priority. We had a replacement cast member ready, and if the baby was about to be born during the show, we planned to refund all of the audience’s money. In the end, the baby was born safely a few days after the final performance. It was a premature birth, right? The play was a success, so it was a miracle. –So when you gave birth, you were aware that the child might not be yours. But even if they’re not related by blood, they’re still parent and child. He’s my son’s father and I want to be his friend. I gave birth at my hometown, so due to the COVID-19 pandemic, I was unable to travel abroad much for the first year after he was born, and I was only able to visit him from Tokyo a few times a year, but he was so adorable. We lived with my ex-wife’s grandparents, and they said I was the best at putting kids to sleep. Tell them something like, “When I look at that spot on the ceiling, I fall asleep.” –Your son made his stage debut in a production that you directed and wrote. My ex-wife was jealous of my work producing plays, so she said to him, “I’ll take care of the kids, so you can play the lead role in a play.” I carried the child on my back and moved around, and my wife looked after him during breaks. When my son came on stage the audience got really excited. When the stage went dark, I shouted “Anten!” He was also loved by his fellow actors. My son was completely at home in that space. It was a fun time. ■ On building trust –Your family ties seem strong, so why did you end up divorcing? This is also a common misconception, but I didn’t want to get divorced. I grew up in a single-parent household and had some hardships, so I don’t want anyone to go through the same thing. My son was important to me, so I wanted to be with him forever. However, no matter how many times I ask my wife to do a DNA test (for our child), she refuses. As I said earlier, you don’t have to be related by blood to your son. However, I think it’s wrong not to make that clear when it comes to building trust. We continued to have these kinds of exchanges. When I asked her if she wanted to get a DNA test, she said, “I want a divorce.” They never told me why they didn’t want to have my child’s DNA tested. My son is currently 4 years old, and I felt bad for him because his last name would change when he goes to nursery school, so after much deliberation, I decided to separate. –Is there anything you’d like to say to your ex-wife and son? You have to draw a roadmap for your life in your head, right? There are many paths to choose from and you have to choose for yourself. There are many times when things don’t go well. However, the difficult times do not last forever and the tide will turn. I still love my ex-wife as a person. There was a topic that was trending in the entertainment industry, and when I thought, “I’d like to talk about it with someone,” the only person who came to mind was my ex-wife.

>>1 For the man who was deceived, brood parasitism is tantamount to psychological murder They dramatise it and glamorise it Even Murasaki Shikibu broadcasts a historical drama about brood parasitism The damn women who brood parasitism need to be severely punished There must have been a reason for brood parasitism, so they kept quiet.
>>1 It’s the same as the drama that’s on right now My Treasure The wife decided to keep it a secret Well, you can do a DNA test secretly if you want to, and I guess the husband didn’t want to go to that extent to find out.
>>1 If you don’t have it appraised and removed from the family register, your inheritance will go to the child in the future, so you should consult a lawyer and have it appraised. If you remarry and have real children in the future, it will be difficult for your wife and children.
>>17 It’s sad that children get criticized for changing their surname, and the wife doesn’t want a different surname than her child, so she most often keeps her husband’s surname. It seems like this happens even if you break up because of domestic violence.
I’m worried about my child’s surname changing, but it won’t have much of an impact at 4 years old. They call each other by their first names at kindergarten. When it changes in elementary school, even their personality changes. The once cheerful kid now tries not to stand out in class.
“Even though we’re not related by blood, we’re still father and son! My son is precious to me!” “Shouldn’t we get a DNA test done soon?” The guy is the biggest mystery though.
>>42 I agree. I understand why his ex-wife left him. It’s not the same as brood parasitism. I feel sorry for his child, who is paying the price for a culture where physical relationships happen everywhere even when they’re not dating.
This is what happens to girls who play around with other guys. You act on your baseless hope that this won’t happen to that girl, and this is what happens to you.
