Los Angeles Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani is going through a great moment both personally and professionally. The player has just won the World Series with the Los Angeles team and while he is preparing for his return to the field, he is enjoying the rest with his wife and daughter, about whom little is known, but recently details emerged of the Japanese player’s relationship with his partner.
Shohei Ohtani has always been a very reserved guy and does not like to talk about his private life, however, some details of his first date with his wife, Mamiko, came to light, who at first doubted going out with the MLB star.
Mamiko almost ruins her first date with Shohei Ohtani
According to reports from Japan, when Ohtani first invited Mamiko to dinner, she hesitated to accept the proposal. It was at this critical moment that the intervention of her parents was crucial, as they encouraged her to get to know the player better and Mamiko finally agreed to the date.
After that first meeting, both the player and her family were pleasantly impressed by the sincerity of the Japanese. This initial step allowed the relationship to flourish in private until the announcement of their marriage in February 2024 surprised the whole world.
In this way, and with a difficult start, Ohtani managed to win Mamiko’s heart and thus form a family that is far from the spotlight and that every day is more consolidated, especially with the birth of their daughter.
