In the image, the 51-year-old queen appears all smiles, elegant in her bright red ensemble, surrounded by her family. A photo that is not recent, since the young prince Hashem has since grown up, to the point of overtaking his mother!A flash of growth that we saw last January, when two new portraits were unveiled by the Court.
It is not uncommon to see the queen relaying family photos on her Instagram account. Last September, she even shared a personal video retracing the childhood of her two daughters for their birthdays. Their two young princesses are now accomplished young women, each in different fields: Princess Iman is a student at the American University of Georgetown, in Washington, the same one where her big brother Crown Prince Hussein had done his studies. For her part, Princess Salma graduated from the Royal Military Academy in Sandhurst (United Kingdom) in 2018. She has since become the very first female jet pilot in the Jordanian army.
