On the wall hangs a photo of Masako and an Imperial Family calendar.

墙上挂着雅子的照片和一本皇室日历。

Shirataki says Masako is her favorite royal and has even appeared in her dreams.

白田说，雅子是她最喜欢的皇室成员，甚至还梦到过。

Adorned in 30-pound robes, styled centuries ago, the new emperor and Empress Masako are a surprisingly modern couple.

德仁天皇和雅子皇后身着30磅的长袍，如百年前一样典雅，却是令人眼前一亮的现代夫妇。

But Shirataki worries about Masako's health. The crown princess has had health problems in recent years.

但是白田担心雅子的健康状况。太子妃近年来一直有健康问题。

Empress Masako may have more responsibilities, but taking the throne may also give her more freedom because she is now the empress.

雅子皇后可能肩负更多责任，但是即位也可能会给她带来更多自由，因为她现在贵为皇后。

On April 30, the Japanese emperor will turn over his official duties to his son, Naruhito. There will be a new Empress Masako.

4月30日，日本天皇将让位给儿子德仁皇太子。雅子也将被封为皇后。

There could be a lot of times where Masako won't go with the emperor, she said. If it's just him, we won't go. Her alone? Yes.

" 很多时候，雅子不会与天皇一起出行，" 她说。" 如果只有天皇，我们就不去。如果她独自出行？当然要去。"
