This past week, the woman formerly known as Princess Mako married Kei Komuro ¡ª a sentence I can¡¯t write without a rush of sentimentality and a box of tissues nearby. You see, I¡¯ve secretly been rooting for Mako for the past 3? years. And so have a bunch of my friends.
Reiko works at Narita Airport and was on duty when Komuro arrived there on Sept. 27 ahead of his marriage Tuesday.
¡°I couldn¡¯t believe the hullabaloo over Komuro-san¡¯s hair,¡± she told me. ¡°So what if the guy had a ponytail? He couldn¡¯t get to a barber in New York because of the pandemic, that¡¯s all. Why can¡¯t people leave the poor couple alone?¡±
