Does anyone have current news and photos of P. Rahma--the eldest child of P. Hassan and P. Sarvath--and her family?

On her father's Web site, I found her biography, an extended family photo album, and a recent photo of her:

In addition, there are a biography and a recent photo of her husband, Alaa Batayneh:

I also found an older photo of P. Rahma during a visit to a school, from 1996, I think:



She hasn't changed much in almost 10 years!

It is very interesting that administrators are the ones opening threads for almost every member for JRF. ..and when it comes to Moroccan Royal Family who was under the Middle east forum, they put the MRF under african, burried in that forum and only allowing TWO threads....

As it has previously been explained on several occasions, Royalty of the World, which is the forum that encompasses the Moroccan royals, includes multiple royal families while the Jordanian Royal Family sub-forum is strictly for the Jordanian royals. Therefor, in order to keep Royalty of the World organized and easy to find threads, the moderators of the Royalty of the World have assigned one thread for the head couple (King and Queen or Crown Prince and Crown Princess) and one thread for news of all other members of the royal family.

During the temporary closing of the Middle Eastern forum, if members had not been so sly in trying to get around the closing by pointing out that the Moroccan royals never belonged in the ME forum in the first place and hence a loophole to allow members to start threads on the Moroccan royals in Royalty of the World, then threads about the Moroccan royals would've stayed in the ME forum and multiple threads would be open on individuals and couples of the Moroccan royal family.

Please take up any further queries about this matter via PM with me or another Administrator or Super Moderator, not in the general forum as it distracts from the focus of this thread.

Some recent pics of Princess Rahma.
She presented a cultural prize to Pakistani band Junoon, who performed during the Jerash Festival in Jordan. Other members of the royal family were also present, Im assuming Princess Sarvath was as well though I dont know for sure.
For those in the middle east and other who may not have heard of Junoon, they're a rock band, know as the biggest in Asia, called one of the biggest in the world, the "U2 of Pakistan" and so on by the likes of NY Times, Q- and Billboard magazines etc.

btw..P. Rahma looks very pretty. Im so glad to see her wearing the shalwar kameez in the latest fashion. I wonder if she's been to Pakistan lately.

Here are the pictures from Junoon's official forum:

They have one daughter, P. Aisha, who's about three or four years old.

'Cos her father is not a prince ! None of the children who are the children of princesses are royal except for the elder son of Princess Alia, whom his grandfather declared a prince at birth, but then back tracked on that one as well, as his own brothers are not so titled. Ho hum. Could this be considered yet another incident of the late king taking a decision he then regretted or went back upon ?

Yup. :( It seems he was an indecisive sort.
