That's how you leave a Royal family. They will also head to America because naturally they want to be free to pursue their dreams.


A Japanese princess set to give up royal life when she marries her "commoner" college sweetheart will also turn down a $1.3 million government handout funded by taxpayer money, intended to help jump-start her new life, the Times of London reports.

Princess Mako of Akishino and her law-student fiancé Kei Komuro, both 29, plan to live together in the United States after their nuptials later this year - and they'll be doing so without a helping hand from the Japanese government, the publication reports.

The couple, who were pictured beaming during their engagement announcement in 2017, are college sweethearts according to the Japan Times, having first met in 2012 while studying at International Christian University in Tokyo.

Komuro, according to the publication, already lives in the US and is awaiting the results of his law exams in December. He's expected to take up an offer from a US law firm after the results.
