Shinsuke Nakamura has contributed a lot to the professional wrestling industry, not just in American countries but in Asian parts of the world. He began his journey in the pro wrestling industry almost twenty years ago when he joined New Japan Pro-Wrestling. In the promotion, he made a great name for himself and won the prestigious IWGP Heavyweight Championship three times.
Shinsuke’s talent caught the eye of the WWE creative and he was signed to the Stamford-based promotion in 2016. After spending almost a year at the black and gold brand, Nakamura made his main roster debut in 2017. He has been going quite strong ever since and takes up a significant place in the division.
The 42-year-old star hails from Japan and the traditions of his home country are deeply embedded in him. As for most Japanese wrestlers, Shinsuke Nakamura has kept his private life far away from his professional life. However, fans did not fail to know that Harumi Maekawa is the wife of 42-year old WWE star Shinsuke Nakamura.
When did Shinsuke Nakamura get married?
Shinsuke Nakamura and Harumi Maekawa knew each other for a long time before getting married. The two became acquainted with each other during their early education days at Aoyama Gakuin University in Shibuya, Tokyo. After losing touch, some common friends reunited the two, causing a spark between them.
Around 1999, the two eventually started dating. After being together for almost eight years, the couple decided to take their marriage vows. The couple got married in a grand manner amidst their close ones and top names in and outside the wrestling industry on September 1, 2007. In addition to this, there is no information about whether Shinsuke Nakamura and Harumi Maekawa have any kids.
Who is Harumi Maekawa and what does she do?
Shinsuke Nakamura’s wife, Harumi Maekawa, is a very private person. Despite her husband’s global fandom, she never got into the limelight. However, she has proven to be a strong supporter of her husband. After Shinsuke shifted to Orlando for his WWE training, she accompanied him there.
While no details about her profession are known to the public, she is perhaps a baker. Going by the name of HARU on Instagram, Harumi Maekawa is a “Japanese food crafter and baker in Orlando, FL.” She also takes up cooking lessons as well as catering orders, as stated in her bio.
However, neither of them has acknowledged that the aforementioned woman is his wife since no pictures of her are available on the internet. Other than that, Triple H once offered a job to the wife of the former NJPW star. But nothing of that sort came into being. More details about her will be brought out to the public once either of them chooses to break their silence.
