Rapper Ash Island and his wife, Japanese rapper Chanmina, have sparked speculation about their marriage after apparently unfollowing each other on Instagram, with deleted wedding photos and lyrics from Chanmina’s latest album adding to fans’ concerns.
According to a November 13th report by OSEN, searches of both artists’ Instagram following lists returned no results for each other’s accounts.
The apparent mutual unfollowing marks a change from reports last month. Japanese outlet Pinzuba News reported on October 29th that Chanmina had unfollowed her husband and deleted photos from their wedding, while Ash Island was still following her as of October 28th.
The deleted photos were from the couple’s wedding ceremony in 2025, which Chanmina had celebrated on Instagram with the message, “We’ve officially become husband and wife.”
Speculation intensified following the November 11th release of Chanmina’s album LEGEND, her first full-length project in approximately three and a half years.
Japanese entertainment outlet RBB Today reported that songs including “CRASHED,” “MALIBU” and “LONELY” contain lyrics suggesting heartbreak, mistrust and separation, prompting some fans to question whether the music reflects difficulties in her marriage.
Despite the social media changes, Ash Island’s original July 7th, 2024 post announcing their marriage and pregnancy remains on his Instagram account. In the post, he tagged Chanmina and wrote, “We’ve promised to spend the rest of our lives together.”
The couple announced their marriage and pregnancy in July 2024, welcomed a daughter later that year and held their wedding ceremony in 2025. Neither artist has publicly addressed the rumors, and there has been no confirmation that they have separated.
The speculation comes amid separate reports of marital trouble involving another rapper, Yang Hong Won. He recently faced infidelity allegations after reportedly accompanying another woman to a hotel shortly after getting married. His agency acknowledged that he had visited the hotel with a female acquaintance but denied that any romantic or sexual activity had taken place. Yang later deleted the caption from a social media post featuring his wedding photos, drawing further attention to his marriage.
