Thanks to Moti:

Terunofuji held his wedding ceremony today. The wife (26) is from Mongolia
and they have been together since after the May 2015 basho. "I owe my
return to my wife," he said. They applied for the marriage certificate
three years ago. It was a thirty minute ceremony with about ten people
present, including Isegahama Oyakata.

W: "The farthest we got was Kyushu, for the first time."

Q: You drove all the way to Kyushu?'

W: "Yes, we rested on the way."

T: "I go on jungyos and travel to the local bashos for my job, so if I see
a nice place, I want to share it with my wife.."

Q: "How did you propose?"

T: "I just want us to create a happy household together,  so I told her I
would do everything to achieve that."

Q: ""What kind of family would you like to have?"

T: "I'd like to have a happy, positive family."

W: ""I'd like us to have a calm, positive household."

Q: "What are your wife's best clothes?"

T: "Flashy and loud.. (laughs)"

Q: "What do you want to achieve next basho?"

T: "Well, it's an important basho, so I'd like to take advantage of this
marriage and achieve a good result next basho as well.."
