At the end of May 2021, nearly a year after the divorce,
media exposed that Higashide Masada has not paid support to his three children.
At that time, the two had not yet reached an agreement on alimony.
The amount of child support proposed by Higashide Masada is 10,000 yen (approximately RMB 500) per month for one child, and 30,000 yen (approximately RMB 1,500) per month for three children.
Xingya knew that Higashide Masada had lost many job opportunities and his income had been greatly reduced due to his cheating, but he was still speechless about it.
It's not because Xing dislikes the lack of money, but because she can't feel his sincerity as a father.

Later, Higashide Masada gradually returned to work, and it was revealed that he had a new relationship, with an American-Japanese girl in her twenties.
Xing chose to move to Paris, France with her three children in August 2022, in order to give her children a better living environment.
According to insiders:
"If in Japan, Higashide Masada's new relationship was exposed, the children might be ridiculed by their classmates at school.
When Xing was a child, she experienced the long-term divorce judgment of Kenwa Watanabe and her mother. She I hope to leave Japan so that my children can grow up in a relaxed and quiet environment."

Although Xing always shows her side of active life and happy parenting,
you can imagine how difficult it is for a single mother to take care of three children.
On the other hand, after the New Year,
Japan's Fuji TV broadcast a program on January 9, showing the current situation of 35-year-old Higashide Masada:
He actually lived in seclusion in the mountains with three young actresses, living a "semi-self-sufficient life" A life of self-sufficiency!

When he has acting work, he will come down and show up. If it was just a meeting, he would attend it online.
Many Japanese netizens questioned that Higashide Masada was too pretentious and gave himself a new persona of living in the mountains.
Even the children's support payments are scrutinized, but they only care about their own happiness and comfort in the mountains.

A man and three women live together in the mountains. If this news spreads, won’t you be afraid that it will cause a new disturbance?
Regarding this, Higashide Masada expressed that it doesn't matter:
"Hey, let others say whatever they want."
"We usually have male actors and actresses come to play, and there are also friends from outside the entertainment industry who come to play.
We are just human beings Is there anything wrong with getting together because people simply like each other?
If you are always afraid of scandals, I would like to ask, why can't you live like an individual?
If the times require bleaching, You have to respect yourself in everything, I think this world is not a good place to be treated.
We live a humane life here, what’s not to do?"
(Higashiide Masada said it doesn’t matter)
The reporter still said worriedly: "The program After it is broadcast, it may cause an uproar on the Internet."
Higashide Masaru replied casually: "Let them make trouble! Let them make trouble!", which made the girls laugh.
Higashide Masada also joked to the girls:
"But you still have children in the future, is that okay? Please ask the program team to mosaic everyone!"

On one side, Anzu is taking care of three children alone in a foreign country,
On the other side, Higashide Masada is living with three girls in the mountains of Japan. After the
program was broadcast, netizens expressed their confusion:
don’t forget to pay compensation to your ex-wife and child support.
This has nothing to do with whether the ex-wife can make more money. This is the responsibility of the ex-husband and the father.
"Is this polygamy?"
"It is better to say that I want to gain people's attention through scandal."
In this world, sometimes the more irresponsible people are, the more comfortable they live.
People like Dong Chu Changda really understand this principle...
