She writes in a series of tweets,
"Soon I'm going to Japan ~ I'm so happy!
From there, I want to see Japanese fireworks!
After that, I want to walk to go eat ramen.
After that, I want to put in the divorce papers. Cheers to me for 12 years."
In response to a tweet expressing concern for her daughter, she added. "Thank you for your concern. However, the decision is for the sake of my children, so my daughter, my son and I will do our best!"
