I mean, it's almost 2022 for goodness sake  :

Meet Princess Aiko, the only child of Japan's emperor who can't inherit his title because of her gender

Following her 20th birthday on Wednesday, Aiko will celebrate a series of coming of age ceremonies.

But like past female Japanese royals, she will eventually leave royal life behind because of gender.

Princess Aiko, daughter of Japan's emperor, will officially come of age days after she turns 20 on Wednesday, the Japan Times reported.

The only child of Emperor Naruhito and his wife Empress Masako, Aiko currently studies Japanese literature at Gakushuin University in Tokyo, according to Royal Central.

I think you're referring to Princess Mako, not Aiko...
