Ryuta Watanabe, a Japanese man with four wives and 11 children, has become an influencer. In the past, he relied on the income of his wives, but recently, his daily life shared on social media has gained popularity, and his monthly income has surpassed 10 million won.
On the 13th, the Hong Kong South China Morning Post (SCMP) reported on Ryuta Watanabe, who lives in Hokkaido, Japan, noting that he is earning nearly 1.25 million yen (approximately 1.2 million won) as a so-called polygamous influencer.
Watanabe is reported to currently live with three wives and four children. He has not filed for marriage due to the restrictions on polygamy. His third wife is pregnant with twins, and he continues to maintain a relationship with his fourth wife, who lives separately.
According to SCMP, Watanabe has seven additional children. This means he has a total of 11 children from past relationships with women he previously dated. He is also known to be recruiting applicants to welcome his fifth wife.
Watanabe reportedly dropped out of middle school and worked various part-time jobs, such as at a moving company, as a cleaner, and as a waiter, eventually depending on the salaries of his wives. However, in February last year, his daily life shared on social media gained popularity, leading him to become an influencer.
Watanabe currently posts videos on social media, including YouTube, showcasing his life with his multiple wives. Recently, he also shared a post about an online interview with a candidate to become his fifth wife. Last May, he established a company with plans to sell clothing and hair products.
Meanwhile, in a past interview, Watanabe shocked the public by stating, "I have sexual relations with my three wives more than 28 times a week," adding, "The wives each have their own rooms, and I alternate between them every night."
