Princess Mako of Japan lost the kingdom by getting married
Princess Mako of Japan is married. After a long wait, she
has finally adopted Kei Kumoro, the son of an ordinary family, as her husband.
Mako-Kumoro submitted their marriage papers in a local ward office at 10 a.m.
local time on Tuesday, the Imperial Household Agency said.
As a result of this marriage, Mako lost her royal status.
According to Japanese law, if a female member of the royal family marries an
ordinary citizen, she loses her royal status. Although this rule does not apply
to male members of the royal family.
However, not only did Mako lose her royal status by
marrying her college classmate Kumoro, Mako refused the money or allowance he
received from the royal family due to the customary royal wedding ceremony and
leaving the family.
In 2017, Mako revealed her relationship with Kumoro. They
had plans to get married the following year. However, they were forced to
postpone the marriage at that time due to the news of an economic scandal of
Kumoro's mother.
The couple is expected to stay in the United States after
the marriage. Kumoro is associated with the legal profession there.
