TOKYO—Former Japanese princess Mako Komuro has given birth to her first child, palace officials confirmed Friday, though they gave no details, saying she is no longer a royal member.

The Imperial Household Agency said both the mother and child are in good health, but did not disclose the baby’s date of birth or gender.
