The planned marriage between Princess Mako, a niece of Emperor Naruhito, and her boyfriend, Kei Komuro, remains up in the air amid the novel coronavirus pandemic, two years after Komuro began studying at a New York law school.
The wedding was originally scheduled to take place in 2018, but was postponed for two years following a string of reports that Komuro's mother was having a dispute with her former fiance over money, including her son's educational expenses, which the man was shouldering.
The couple, both 28, has yet to make any official announcements about their wedding plans.
