Jordanian crown prince meets prince of Brunei in London
LONDON: Crown Prince of Jordan Hussein bin Abdullah and his wife, Princess Rajwa Al-Hussein, met with Prince of Brunei Abdul Mateen and his wife, Princess Yang Mulia Anisha Rosnah, in London on Tuesday. For the latest updates, follow us on Instagram @ Al-Hussein and Abdul Mateen trained at the Royal Military Academy of Sandhurst in south England. Al-Hussein posted a photo with Abdul Mateen from London on his Instagram account. In the image, Princess Rajwa wore a stylish all-black outfit, while Princess Anisha was dressed in a pale blue tweed blazer and black trousers. Mateen, 33, and Anisha Rosnah, 30, tied the knot in a lavish wedding in Bandar Seri Begawan, the capital of Brunei, in January 2024. Mateen is the 10th child and fourth son of Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah, the world's longest-reigning monarch and once the richest man on the planet. Because of his position in the family, Mateen is unlikely to ever ascend to the throne. Al-Hussien, 30, and Rajwa, 30, married in June 2023. The royal couple welcomed a baby daughter, Princess Iman, last August. Prince Al-Hussein is the heir to the throne of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. He is the eldest son of King Abdullah and Queen Rania Al-Abdullah. This week, he is visiting London, where he met with William, Prince of Wales, at Windsor Castle on Monday.
