Ando Miki, 38, a former member of Japan's national figure skating team, is once again making headlines in Japan for her dramatic image transformation and candid comments about the biological father of her daughter.

Japanese media outlet "Nishispo" reported on the 28th that "Ando Miki's image change has drawn significant attention." The report added, "When she appeared with blonde hair instead of her long-held black hair and pink makeup, fans reacted explosively."

The media also revisited Ando's recent honest confession as a single mother on television. In June, during an appearance on a variety program, Ando openly discussed the biological father of her daughter. At that time, she stated, "I have never been divorced, and my child grew up without a father from before turning one year old, so she likely has no memory of him. However, I believe this is not something to hide, so I explained the situation to her since she was young. Showing her photos, I told her that if she ever wants to meet him, he must still be alive and can be found anytime."

During her active career, Ando competed in the same era as Kim Yuna and was Japan's flagship figure skating star. As a female singles skater, she became the first in the world to successfully land a quadruple salchow jump in an official international competition. She went on to achieve remarkable milestones, including competing in the 2006 Turin Winter Olympics and the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics, and winning two world championships (2007 and 2011).

However, her life off the ice was tumultuous. In April 2013, at the age of 25, she shocked the nation by announcing that she had given birth to a daughter without revealing the identity of the biological father, remaining unmarried at the time. Shortly after giving birth, she competed in the All-Japan Championships, displaying her fighting spirit, but announced her retirement from active competition later that year.

Even after retiring, Ando's private life remained under public scrutiny. In 2014, she officially acknowledged a relationship with Javier Fernández, a Spanish figure skating star, and even cohabited with him in a serious romance, which ended due to his infidelity. She recently revealed on a radio program that "when he was at home, he was addicted to games; outside the house, he was a womanizer." Additionally, she faced recent controversies over allegations of an inappropriate relationship with a minor student under her coaching. Despite these challenges, Ando has continued to draw public attention with her dramatically changed appearance and confident approach to parenting.
