I have heard from a friend that yes she is safe, and apparently seeing someone, he is a prince ??? not confirmed, this I will try to do. Could ask my husband to find out.

Hey, the marine should have known that there was no way they could ever be happy together. They not only come from two extremely different cultures, but also lifestyles. P. Meriam grew up in the wealth, having everything done for her and not having to worry about paying the bills. Not so with the Marine. After you get accustomed to a certain lifestyle, it's very hard to give it up.

Difficult, but not impossible. Amazing things happen to people in the name of love. However, I don't think hers was lasting enough to adapt to her new environment and move on from there.

I think he married her for some fame. If such a thing happened in another arab country concerning a sheikha/princess, the family would send someone out to kill him and bring her back, and then she would be locked up in her house or maybe even killed.He did not think of what would happen to her or to him ?I bet he knew it wouldnt last, it would be really difficult for her to adapt to his lifestyle and no one supporting her..She should of had some sense before thining of running away with him.She is lucky to be back in bahrain and her parents have forgived her..

I heard she was engaged to her cousin before she ran away, can you confirm that please?

Recent news about the couple. They look happy in the picture, I guess it was taken several years ago.

Well I'm glad her parents forgave her for leaving, and that she is ok. It isn't just the marine's fault...It's hers too. She should have known herself that the man wouldn't be able to provide her with the lifestyle that she was accustomed to back home. I hate that things didn't work out for the two of them, but the relationship was doomed from the start if you ask me.

According to the article, it looks like Meriam Al-Khalifa is still living in Las Vegas. Why hasn't she returned to Bahrain? Or is she afraid to go home? I thought her parents forgave her.

Actually, I don't think her parents forgave her. I would think they're still pretty darn angry over her behavior. Do disrespect meant, but from an outsider's point of view, Islamic royal families don't seem to be forgiving and loving.

And the divorce has not been granted yet. She merely filed for divorce. It has to go through the courts first then be finalized by a judge.
