where is the problem if a woman is older than her husband?We are not still in the middle ages
I don't like to see people judging others according to their age,nationality and other silly details.
Personnally,if Princess Reem's age wasn't made public I would have never noticed that she is older than Prince Ali.I don't understand some people accepting an old man marrying a young lady and not the contrary.Just notice that Reem is far from being old.
The answer to your question is that may be Prince Ali was intelligent enough to see big qualities in his wife
. After all she was a succeful journalist before her marriage and she did achieve a carrier by her own means.Who are we to decide that he deserves better and that she deserves less.And may be she desseves better ,who knows
