Also, I think Noor's presence in Jordan at Hamzah's side would be a constant reminder to the Jordanian people of the late King Hussein, who was very loved and admired, and that it was his personal sentiment that Hamzah his 'favourite' son should one day be king.

You know, Genevieve, I think you may have just hit on one of the major reasons QN is kept out of the country as much as she is. She's a visual reminder to all of KH's death, how well she took care of him during his long illness, how much he was loved by his people, and how he would've preferred that C.P. Hamzah was old enough to succeed him. That's just too threatening to KA and QR. Maybe it's not just that there's a rivalry between QN and QR, but that there's a perceived challenge to the throne.
