A future queen who is as popular as she is graceful, and often credited with being the face of the next generation of monarchy, Princess Rajwa has been described as Jordan\u2019s answer to the Princess of Wales, who spent some of her childhood in Jordan \u2013 though their differences are just as illuminating as their similarities.<\/p>\n

Unlike Kate<\/a>, Rajwa Al Saif was born with royal relatives. The daughter of Khaled Al Saif and Azza Al Sudairi, her mother is a scion of the Al Sudairi dynasty<\/a>, which has ties to the Saudi Arabian royal family.

In August 2022, the Jordanian royal court announced that this Saudi Arabian architect was engaged to Crown Prince Hussein. The pair met, not through university, but through a mutual friend, and their engagement ceremony was held at Rajwa\u2019s father\u2019s home in Riyadh.
