www.yahoo.com - The colour fuschia with all the intricate beading from this traditional outfit creates a stunning effect and Queen Noor looks absolutely radiant. www.yahoo.com - A full view of Queen Noor's dress (with Nelson Mandela - who is absolutely peaceful and calming in person. I had the pleasure of meeting him once and he is every bit the gentle and compassionate soul he is often described as.) Last edited by Mandy; 05-16-2007 at 01:19 AM. Reason: Merging posts |

HELLO! - The place for celebrity news - hellomagazine.com
QUEEN NOOR TAKES CENTRE STAGE IN SOUTH AFRICA 9 SEPTEMBER 2003 Queen Noor of Jordan stepped into her role as patron of the World Parks Congress (WPC) on Monday, joining two South African leaders – President Thabo Mbeki and his predecessor, Nelson Mandela – at the once-in-a-decade global environment meeting in Durban. Radiant in pink, Queen Noor shared centre stage with the two statesmen as they kicked off the ten-day congress, which aims to address issues related to protected areas around the globe, from national parks to marine sanctuaries. The 52-year-old widow of King Hussein spoke of the importance of partnerships as the only viable option for the preservation of the environment, and Mr Mandela promoted youth involvement as the key to the future. President Mbeki, meanwhile, pointed out the links between alleviating poverty and improving conservation, saying: "It is critically important that alternative means of livelihood be found for the poor in the world, so that they are not forced to act in a manner that undermines the global effort to protect these ecosystems, driven by hunger and underdevelopment." More than 2,500 dignitaries, local leaders, businesspeople and conservationists from over 170 countries are taking part in this year's event, which is run by the World Conservation Union.

She's on the cover of the current issue with a fairly long article inside. Saw it today at Barnes and Noble (didn't buy it). Here's some info and pics from their website.

Hi Everyone!
I am getting a little confused here, so I hope you guys can help me.... Is HRH Queen Noor the queen of Jordan? Because, if that is so, HRH Queen Rania and HRH King Abdulla can't also be king and queen of Jordan right? SO.....could someone tell me how it actually is? Thanx! ![]() |

There are several countries that have two Queens. They usually go by the title of Queen Mother or Dowager Queen. Queen Noor is the wife of the former King. She was allowed to keep her title when the new King ascended the throne. Abdullah allowed the title to remain out of respect for his father and to honor his father's wishes. Noor was not given the title Queen Mother because she is not the current King's Mother. She is a Dowager Queen. Rania was given the title by her husband and is the current Queen.

Before Queen Mary died in 1953, Britain had three Queens: Queen Elizabeth II, Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, and Queen Mary. :)

Where have you found any records to indicate a previous marriage for Noor? As far as I am aware, King Hussein was her first and only husband. I have found no records stating any thing other. |

I would like to see that article. There are no public records for a previous marriage. The Royal Family has not mentioned it. When she first visited Jordan, she was accompaning her father who was head of Pan American Airlines at the time. The Royal Family has mentioned the many lies and rumours that |
