Fantastic news! Well done Kei!

A senior official of the Imperial Household Agency expressed relief upon hearing Komuro had passed, saying "It's good to hear. It is reassuring to see the foundations for (the couple's) future finally falling into place."

Kei is Kayo's son. Like you, I’m happy for Mako that her husband passed the bar. It’s a great accomplishment! I’m also glad she’s putting her education to good use by volunteering at the museum.The bar exam is very difficult. Since English is not Kayo Kumoro’s native language it was harder. I am proud of his accomplishment. It took John F. Kennedy Jr. several attempts to pass the bar and he did so on his third attempt also. May the couple continue on a path of success and love.
I was soo hoping that these two would be left in peace . they went through a great deal of stress in order to marry , Mako struggling with her loyalty and love for both family , country , and the institution of the Imperial family , Kei with the controversy his mothers relationships caused . For her now to deliberately strive to destroy their peace , well its no wonder the two of them have not returned to Japan since leaving .The bar exam is very difficult. Since English is not Kayo Kumoro’s native language it was harder. I am proud of his accomplishment. It took John F. Kennedy Jr. several attempts to pass the bar and he did so on his third attempt also. May the couple continue on a path of success and love.
I hadn't but upon reading your post, went to Google and found Kayo Komuro's Autobiography Sparks Controversy
