she's obviously one of the guests the Queen is receiving. You can see many other women wearing their traditional dresses in the picture.

Default Hello article and pictures

15 OCTOBER 2004

She may be the wife of one of the world's wealthiest heirs, having tied the knot with Crown Prince Al-Muhtadee of Brunei in an opulent September ceremony, but newlywed Princess Sarah opted for a decidedly low-key approach to fashion during her Italian honeymoon.

The glitz and dazzle which marked the 17-year-old's numerous and lavish wedding outfits were nowhere in sight. And rather than sporting the traditional new bride's slew of carefully-picked outfits, Sarah took to the streets of Milan in conservative casuals unlikely to set her apart from fellow tourists in the northern Italian city.

Stepping out in the Italian fashion capital with her new husband, Sarah sported a tailored blue shirt worn with flared blue jeans and strappy high heeled sandals.

During their stay, the couple also enjoyed a visit to a local theme park - a fitting outing for the teenage bride and her new husband. For while Sarah is married to the heir to the Brunei throne, her taste is still very much that of most teenage girls. "She likes Britney Spears," a longtime school chum revealed, adding: "She likes Prince William, too, but she has her own prince now..."

As to why the Sultan divorced his second wife, apparently it's common knowledge that she cheated on him. It's something that's not officially announced, coz that would just tarnish the name and image of the Bruneian throne, but it's a small (Malay) world. Word gets around.

So who's the guy? The Sultan cheated on both his wives with slews of foreign callgirls. What goes around, comes around.

Apparently it was her bodyguard. As for the Sultan cheating, I think you got him confused with his brother Prince Jefri. He was the one who was embroiled in a scandal about some caucasian call girl who was "enslaved" or something like that, I can't quite remember the case. The same prince who was banished(?) for embezzellement. The Sultan's got a clean slate I think.

The Sultan was a willful participant in some of Prince Jefri's pleasure antics. Some of the girls inerviewed said they had given the Sultan sexual favors; one even stated that the Sultan refused to take protective measures, insisting that birth control or protection was the responsibility of the girls. He's by no means without blemish. It's only in recent years he's distanced himself from Jefri to appear pious and religious, so that no one could question his moral authority to lead the conservative Islamic sultanate.

Thats true, the Sultan was part of it all. One of girls in the US even tried to sue him and his brother.

Same goes for some of the sultan's daughters and other bruneian princess who've been photographed in London. Princess Sarah's mother doesnt cover all the time either.
It is not uncommon for minor members of the royal family to not wear the headscarf. However for more important royalties such as Princess Sarah - i believe it is mandatory, as she is the wife of a Crown Prince.

Datin Faezah, being Malaysian, would have been a Muslim before she married Prince Sufri.
