The last time we saw her was on October 26th. Mako of Japan was leaving the Akasaka Estate residence in the Imperial Palace complex in Tokyo where she lived with her parents, Crown Prince Fumihito of Akishino and Princess Kiko, her sister Princess Kako and her little brother Prince Hisahito , to get to her wedding.
Calm found in New York
In a tense climate in Japan, the princess, daughter of Crown Prince Fumihito and niece of Emperor Naruhito, married a lawyer named Kei Komuro, whom she met during her studies. Four years ago, the announcement of their engagement had caused a stir. And because of the financial problems of the mother of the groom, public opinion was against this union.
This is why the lovers decided to settle in New York, where Kei Komuro has already joined a firm: Lowenstein Sandler LLP. Housed in a complex in Hell’s Kitchen, an upscale district of the Big Apple, the couple are happy in the United States.
Besides a stroll through Bryant Park, a few days ago, including the Daily Mail Got the pictures, we spotted Mako shopping on Friday, November 19th. Our colleagues report that the former princess, deprived of her title, and of money (she would have given up on 1.2 million euros to marry the man of her life), did her shopping at Bed, Bad and Beyond.
So for an hour and a half, she put bath towels in her caddy, hangers, storage baskets, paper towels and other items for his move in. Not yet familiar with the place, she would have got lost on the way back to her apartment.
New look
Very recognizable, the princess had completely changed her style. Finished the pastel twin-set dress set, she had bet on a much more urban and warm look by putting on a long green coat, a black top and blue jeans with rolled up placket, with boots. Life as a commoner has its advantages.
