Japan’s Princess Hisako says she was nervous about her daughter Noriko’s recent engagement.

The Princess made the comment at an orchid exhibition.

Her daughter, Princess Noriko, got engaged to a priest from one of Japan’s holiest Shinto shrines this week.

The Princess said her daughter was now leaving the nest.
