Well, I personally think the wife of Hamzah, princess noor, doesn't have enough power to support her husband in this dificult role, but I do think prince Hamzah is qualified for being a good king, so that is going to be a bit of a problem.
I think that we all should give Princess Noor a chance. She is very young and with the example of Queen Noor and Queen Rania she will develop and will, eventually, become a strong Queen when Hamzah becomes King.

H.M., I think you're right. We don't know much about P. Noor. She could actually be stronger than CP. Hamzah. She could wind up being the strentgh behind the throne. Maybe this is why CP. Hamzah chose her, for her character. I don't think Cp Hamzah would make a fly-by-night decision when it comes to choosing a mate. I think he chose his mate very carefully, picking someone who would be a great source of strentgh from him during the difficult times thst lie ahead. His life is not going to be easy; I don't envy anyone in the Hashemite Royal Family.

You are right, she is very young and I certainly don't envy the hashemite royal family, it is a very difficult and a not an easy way of life.

But how come, the royal family, is so secret about princess Noor, wouldn't the jordanian people like to know what kind of girl she is and , maybe, what kind of future queen she will be?
I'm pretty curious myself !!!!

She seems very sweet, but that might be just the outside.
Does anyone know more about her?

I need it something to lift me up. Well, Mya you sincerely did. I could not say it better myself. Comments made by Abraxas cannot be explained better.

I don't know--who ever knew anything about Faisal's wife while he was Crown Prince? Or Rania for the short time that Abdullah was Crown Prince.

Since views in the other topics and other posts:

Why rania?
Rania's spending.

I have to give my point of view,of course QR is very elegant and look skinny,but is that enough to put her on the pedestal?

Absolutly not,some posters talked about her social works,personally,i don't see any thing concretly that she done for her country,other princesses and queens do more and more,but without a lot of fuss for nothing,look to princess Lalla Meryam of morocco,we know all her engagement in social works for children and women,with concreate results,and without armada of photographers at the least movement.

QR has definitly an obssession with her image,she loves to appear,but she must to understund that if she accept the play with paparazzis,the price will be more expensive in the future,remember the late princess Diana.

If now that's serving her to be patted on the back from Gossips,they will ask more and more,so if QR accepted the paly,she should to chain up in return :P

And whatever she done it was done for too high price. She is on every charity, as long as there is a party where she can show up in designer dresses. The worst of all is that she is calling herself true face of Islam. This is in huge contrast with Princesses of Morocco that actually work with no need of press attention. Just recently Rania sent pictures of her to AFP, Yahoo, Getty images.

In October 2002,i saw an anterview with QR in the french TV "France2","thé ou café",she was asked why most of jordanians don't wear elegant and modern habits like her,her answer was"because of their economic situation,statistics show us that it's not from convictions"

Of course i was outraged by this answer,how can a spouse of head of a state,to give an answer like that,so statistics didn't show her that a safari jaket from yves st-laurent,which she was wearing visiting bedouins to take shoots for "Vogue magazine"could making a whole family comfortably one year?

According to Getty it was actually a lingon berry drink served in a glass of ice during a visit to the Sami village of Jukkasjaervi outside Kiruna in northern Sweden.

The Queen does an incredible amount of work that does get covered by western media because it is very important. The first Arab regional conference on Child abuse and neglect has just taken place in Amman. If it wasn't for the Queen events such as this would be years away in taking place in the Arab region IMO. Rania has enormous exposure not because she craves it but because she is a charismatic and hard-working individual who cares deeply about her country.

This is a common practice actually, Asma among high profile individuals. It is not for personal exposure but to provide and share information about the event which in this case was a conference on Women and Law attended by the Queen and Cherie Blair.
