Actress Honami Suzuki has announced that she is making her comeback after a 10-year absence from show business. She married comedian Takaaki Ishibashi (of Tunnels) in 1998, but because she was already pregnant at the time, she retired to raise her child. She and Ishibashi have had two more children since then, and now that they have gotten older, she has decided she is ready to resume her career.

Suzuki will start off by appearing on the cover of the January issue of the magazine Mrs., which will also begin serializing her cooking-themed essay "Honami Shokudo." Although she currently has no other work lined up besides the essay, she is aiming to gradually return to acting.

Suzuki was one of the most popular actresses during the late '80s and the '90s, starring in many hit television dramas such as "Non-chan no Yume," "Tokyo Love Story," and "News no Onna."
