The crisis of the Japanese royal family has ended at last. Princess Kiko, wife of Prince Akishino gave birth to a boy early today.
Kiko has provided the Japanese throne with its first male heir in more than 40 years!
The baby boy came to this world by C-Section & is third in line to the throne, after Crown Prince Naruhito and Kiko’s husband, Prince Akishino.
This baby isn't Kiko's first, she already has two daughters.
Congratulations !
Well finally the much anticipated male heir. Congratulations. Did they require any outside help to acquire him? really the fuss, her daughters would probably do a better job on the throne. Anyway that would stop the debate about whether females can succeed the throne for the time being.
I am happy for Kiko though, that should take the pressure off her shoulders.
Congratulations!!! Finally, the Japanese Empire has an hier to the throne. It is said that a baby boy has not come for 40 years. However, I wish they would give a chance to females. There are not going to run terror campaigns..... ;)
Congratulations to Princess Kiko and Prince Akishino for their newborn son. This has finally solved the crisis since the birth of Princess Aiko in 2001 where it was expected that she would be Japan's first Empress after centuries ruled by men and caused debate througout the nation that women should not inherit the throne.
i dont understand how hes the 1st male heir when there r 2 ppl ahead of him. can some1 plz explain to me.
Alf mabroek, but actually it is not right to let the boy in the future rule over japan, the girls are also capable to do it because they will probebly go to school.....ect.
i didn't know there is a prince and princess japanese... in my thought, they could have another baby japanese, they all look a like cause nobody will know if they kdnap another one.
mashallah alhemdellaah
can someone do my essay hw about my culture..ok
I wonder what the crown princess of Japan is ready to do to kiko's eyes for doing what she failed to do. She could be happy though, yeah very happy.
its not a problem if women rule, time to drop that stupid "man power" tradition. women are mostly more flexible and kind than men, they'd make good rulers.
3abaroony tayeb!!! answer my ques.!!
Regarding your question Natalie, the newborn prince Hisahito became the first male heir born into the Japanese Imperial family after more than 40 years. His uncle Crown Prince Naruhito and Princess Masako were married since 1993 and have a daughter named Aiko and she cannot rule Japan, and his father Prince Akishino has two daughters. His birth put an end to the controversy even though people didn't mind having a woman inheriting the throne. I hope this answers your question and my best wishes go to the family for their new bundle of joy.
