Crown Prince Naruhito, 45, and his wife Masako, 42, have had only one daughter, 4-year-old Aiko. Naruhito's brother, Prince Akishino, 40, and his wife, Kiko, 39, have two daughters. So Koizumi's panel suggested that succession should pass to the Emperor's firstborn, regardless of gender.

Hughes' father John was contacted, along with his daughter, at 8:45 pm EST while the family was having dinner. "Emily expressed her wishes for a quick recovery for Michelle, and was also excited to be part of the US team," said David Raith, executive director of the US Figure Skating Association and the first to inform the Hughes family. By early morning, the media circus had already...
