Well, so much for singing about "Oath", huh. But jokes aside, I hope she's alright. Her life has not been easy.

She then switched music labels last year and released her newest album Fantôme in September, her first in eight years.


She switched labels AFTER Fantôme. Fantôme was actually released in September of 2016, not last year.

Quick marriages almost never work out. I'm not surprised.

Let's also not forget she's doing the Kingdom Heart 3 song(s) "誓い" \"Don't Think Twice"

I hope she is okay.

That being said, I think it's time I get famous and attempt to woo her! She is so beautiful and has the voice of an angel.

How so? Because she's divorced two times now and switched her label? Its not always the Husbands fault a marriage dont work out, Wifes can be the reason as well.

You're focusing on the article content itself that hardly tells you her entire life, her mother also passed in a pretty unfortunate fashion. That was a while ago but she took a lot of time off over it and it could not have been easy. She's also more or less come out as bi around the time of her last album too, I'm not sure if there's been any media blow-back from that in Japan or not though.

I wasn't even aware that they were having issues so this is a surprise. Though her private life is something she likes to keep under wraps for the most part. It's a shame it didn't work out, because like the first commenter said she's had to deal with a lot of unfortunate things in her life. I wouldn't be surprised if this colored the tone of her next album.
