Concerning the sudden news from the media about her and Oguri living separately, she avoided the topic only stating: "Yeah, how would it be?", while calling Oguri "that person".On the other hand she would rather "like to challenge a lot of things, as the summer has arrived", looking positively ahead. On her wish to get married, Yamada only said "There is none, there is none!" showing a rather anxious expression.
