Yes, Lilo, you're right - the Late King was extremely happy to have such a family. I believe that one day Prince Husein will be as a responsible and wise king as his father and grandfather. Jordan should be pround of such monarchs!
 
Congratulations

by the Jordan Times

...
The Constitution of the land makes designation of the Crown Prince a pressing demand; in accordance with it, the eldest son of the King is normally assigned Crown Prince, and what the Royal Decree issued on July 2 did was simply to give expression to the normative practice in this regard.
Jordanians welcomed the decision, expressing happiness and deep satisfaction that the post of Crown Prince has been filled in strict compliance with the organic law of the Kingdom....
...
We congratulate the Crown Prince on this happy occasion and pray to God that he will be most successful in all his endeavours under the watchful eyes of the King and Queen.

Fairly speaking, I am not surprised to learn that Prince Hussein will become a Crown Prince. The precedent was set by the late King Hussein, who, shall we say, appointed his eldest to ascend the throne.

Ditto. It was only a matter of time before this happened, frankly. I kept thinking what would the late King Hussein would be thinking, seeing that his son repeated history by removing his brother as CP and replacing him with his eldest son. I wonder if he would have approved.

In both cases, the king was acting in accordance with the Jordanian constitution, under which a monarch’s eldest son is heir to the throne.
Let’s not forget the fact that Prince Hassan also replaced his nephew, Crown Prince Abdullah, due to the exceptional circumstances at the time. CP Abdullah had assumed the position at birth.
The Constitution of The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan
 
Well, to be honest, it is no great surprise. Many have been expecting it since Abdullah became king despite Rania's disingenuous remarks in interviews. It is why Hamzah was stripped of the title by Abdullah in the first place.
 
Queen Rania never implied anything to the contrary, when asked how she felt about her son being CP, she only implied that she thought he was too young for the job, and considering that was at least 4 years ago, you can see why a mother would say that. Being CP in a country like Jordan is not easy, particularly when the royal family have had their lives threatened on more than one occasion. Prince Hussein is still young but not a baby, if he is to be King of Jordan one day, he’ll need to start preparing for that role now. He has a demanding job ahead of him and he’s going to need everyone around him to help and guide him. This is not the time to bring out old axes that need grinding (re: Prince Hamzah).

I do not think so, but it doesn't matter: Female members of the royal family are not expected to send (public) congratulations to a new king or crown prince.
 
Congratulations to CP Hussein ...
 
Congratulations to Prince Hussein.

I was a little surprised by the timing, as I had thought they would wait until his 18th but maybe they felt an announcemewnt was more prudent as he has started attending official events.
 
Contrats to Prince Hussein!
