Question Curious..

As I was going through the pictures in the past threads, something struck me and I've been pondering it for a while. In a rough estimate, we see the most official pictures (i.e. duty pictures like cutting ribbons, inspecting projects, etc.) from #1) Hamdan #2) Maktoum and #3) Majid. I see the first two (especially lately with their appointments and everything) but Majid puzzles me. If it were going in numerical order, then Ahmed would be stepping up to the plate, but we see A LOT of Majid and very little of Rashid, Ahmed, Saed. Why do you think that is? He's always done lots of official duties, and I have great respect for that. Do you think that him being the only son from Mo's Moroccan wife is a factor?

Not trying to start speculation, but I'm curious about your opinions. Maybe Ahmed has followed Rashid to the magical hole that we can't find

I want to see more pictures of Sheikha Hind's daughters!! I especially seeing the pictures of Salamah & Shamma, masha'Allah they are too cute. They are the precious ones and I really love them like my sisters! May Allah bless them and give them happiness, and bless the sheikhs family. Oh yes-- I call them "the precious ones" because this is what we call the Sheikhas in UAE.

Rashid really has disappeared lately. He used to be with his father and brothers often and he carried out his own events but lately nothing

Thanks for the info I'm very interested in the sheikhas ! I wonder if Latifa was shopping for her own wedding preparations or for The big wedding in Qatar.
Does anybody know when Latifa's own wedding is planned?
