(were they even married? i can't remember if this was mentioned in the anime)

When you marry in Japan, do u take the man or the woman's name?

Even if it's common to take the man's name they may have taken the woman's to leave the past behind

Just saying, there may be some merit to the Ichigo royalty theory
