Takumi Kawahara is the husband of the Japanese organizing consultant, author, and television show host, Marie Kondo. Marie earned an Emmy nomination in 2019 and was named one of Time's "100 most influential people" in 2015.
Kawahara is 36 years old as of now. He was born in July 1984 in Ikuchi Island, Onomichi, Hiroshima, Japan. Takumi attended Kure Miyahara High School and then Kanagawa University, graduating in 2007.
His wife, Marie, is 36 years old. She was born on October 9, 1984, in Tokyo, Japan. Kondo studied sociology at the Tokyo Woman's Christian University. During her senior year, the 36-year-old wrote her capstone thesis, titled "Tidying up as seen from the perspective of gender".
Takumi and Marie have been married for nearly two decades now. While it's still unclear how both knew each other, they probably met in the late 2000s. In his Linkedin, Kawahara mentions that both became friends during his college years. After dating for some time, the pair tied the knot in 2012.
At the time, Kawahara worked in the sales support and marketing department at a corporation in Osaka. They have two daughters Satsuki, born in 2016, and Miko, born in 2017. Kawahara and Kondo announced they were expecting a third child in January 2021. Both welcomed a baby boy on April 22, 2021.
"It's a boy! I am over the moon to welcome this bundle of joy into our family. We are all doing well. Now comes the fun part -- spending this special time with our little guy," she wrote sharing a sweet photo of the newborn with one of his sisters. The couple now reside in Beverly Hills, California, with their three kids, having previously lived in San Francisco.
Kawahara reportedly has a net worth of $5million as of 2021. He has been the CEO of KonMari Media, Inc., a lifestyle brand based in Los Angeles, since August 2018. The pair founded the company in 2015.
The 36-year-old is also an executive producer of Netflix’s hit show, Tidying Up With Marie Kondo. Takumi started his career as a corporate HR consultant and strategist for Achievement Co., Ltd. in Tokyo. He left his job and became a trusted advisor to Marie after her rise to fame.
