She has a younger sister, Princess Kako, and a younger brother, Prince Hisahito. Mako was educated at the Gakushūin School in her Primary, Girls' Junior and Senior High School years.

TITLE AND MARRIAGE
Mako was styled as Her Imperial Highness Princess Mako until her marriage on 26 October 2021, after which she became known as Mrs. Mako Komuro.
In May 2017, it was announced that the Princess was expected to marry Kei Komuro.The two had met while both students at International Christian University (ICU), and he had proposed to her in December 2013.
The wedding was originally expected to take place in November 2018, but it was postponed after media reports of Komuro's mother's financial dispute with her former fiancé over ¥4 million ($36,000). Some of the money had been used to pay Komuro's tuition fees, and the dispute resulted in the public's disapproval of the match. Komuro stated that his mother initially believed the money was a gift and added that he wished to pay it back. Princess Mako blamed the postponement on the couple's immaturity at that time.
On 26 October 2021, Princess Mako officially married Komuro following the submission of their marriage document at the local ward office. Like her paternal aunt, Sayako, Princess Nori, and other princesses who married commoners in recent decades she formally lost her title and became a commoner upon marriage as required by Imperial Household Law. In light of the scandals surrounding her husband's family, she also refused the Japanese government's taxpayer funded payment of ¥140 million (US$1.3 million) given to royal women upon leaving the Imperial Family. She is the first female member of the imperial family to forgo an official wedding ceremony and a gift of money from the government.
While awaiting her passport issuance and US Visa, Mako moved to her own residence in the Shibuya district in Tokyo as she is by law not allowed to live at her parents' house inside the imperial quarters. Kei resolved the financial dispute between his mother and her ex-fiancé in November 2021, paying the ex-fiancé an undisclosed sum of money to resolve the debt.The couple departed for New York in mid-November 2021.
Kei Komuro began studying at Fordham University School of Law in August 2018 and graduated with a Juris Doctor in May 2021. He later joined Lowenstein Sandler, a law firm in New York as a law clerk. He passed New York's bar exam in October 2022 and began working as a lawyer in 2023.
This prove that love is really blind and you don't think about to leave other things if you truly love someone...
