According to the Daily Mail, Princess Mako and her husband plan to live in New York where Kei works as an attorney at the law firm Lowenstein Sandler LLP in New Jersey. Princess Mako, who refuses money for marrying an ordinary person, is said to be looking for work there.
Leaving the Akasaka palace in Tokyo, Princess Mako is reportedly planning to rent an apartment in New York. Although not a palace, of course the apartment inhabited by this newlywed couple is not cheap. Located in an elite area, the rent can reach hundreds of millions for a month.

Princess Mako herself should be able to receive 150 million Yen or around Rp. 19.5 billion as a royal princess. Kyodo News sources in the government said the billions of allowances were paid from people’s taxes.
However, Princess Mako chose to refuse the billions of allowances in order to be with the man who had been her lover for a long time. He followed in the footsteps of his aunt Princess Sayako, by marrying a man from a non-aristocratic circle.
