Queen Rania of Jordan Cuddles Granddaughter Princess Iman in New Photo

Queen Rania of Jordan’s baby granddaughter Princess Iman might be her best birthday gift of all.

The Queen of Jordan turned 54 on Aug. 31, and her eldest son Crown Prince Hussein posted a new photo of his mother and newborn daughter to celebrate. The heir to the throne and his wife, Princess Rajwa, became first-time parents when Princess Iman was born on Aug. 3. 

“You instilled in us everything that is beautiful.. Every year, you are the light of the house,” Crown Prince Hussein, 30, wrote in Arabic on Instagram, per a translation. 

“Forever grateful for your love and endless support. Happy birthday to my beloved mother!” he added in English. 

The shot showed Queen Rania dressed in casual clothes and appearing to coo at her newborn granddaughter, who she held in her arms. Baby Princess Iman was swaddled in a white patterned blanket with pink hat in the undated image as she slept in her grandmother’s arms.

Queen Rania and her husband King Abdullah became first-time grandparents when Princess Iman was born in August, meaning that the royal baby and her grandmother share the same birthday month. On the eve of Queen Rania’s birthday, the Royal Hashemite Court released a glam new portrait of the Queen wearing a tiara and plum sash, noting that her birthday was especially festive amid King Abdullah’s Silver Jubilee year, marking 25 years on the throne.

On March 6, International Women’s Day, King Abdullah, 62, bestowed his wife with the Order of the Bejewelled Grand Cordon of Al Nahda in appreciation of her service alongside him for a quarter century. 

The honor, which comes complete with a sash in the colors of the national flag, was awarded to the Queen “in recognition of her leading role in the advancement of Jordanian society and her efforts to support Jordanians in all fields,” the Royal Hashemite Court said.

On a personal level, the royal family of Jordan has lots to celebrate as well upon the birth of Princess Iman. The little princess was born just over a year after her parents tied the knot in an epic wedding in Amman attended by Prince William, Kate Middleton and many other royals from around the world, and the court confirmed shortly after her birth that the child would receive a princess title and HRH styling as expected. However, she did not enter into the line of succession.

The throne of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan is hereditary to King Abdullah Ibn Al-Hussein’s male descendants, meaning that Crown Prince Hussein is still followed by his younger brother Prince Hashem, 19. Their sisters, Princess Iman, 27 — who shares the same name with her newborn niece! — and Princess Salma, 23, are not in line to reign one day.

Baby Princess Iman, whose name means “belief” and “faith” in Arabic, seems to have already charmed her grandparents’ hearts. On Aug. 13, Queen Rania gave a rare glimpse of her kicking back with King Abdullah and baby Iman, and commemorated her birth with photos from the visit to see her in the hospital on Aug. 3. 

“Iman, you’ve already got a hold of my heart. Our family has never been happier,” Queen Rania wrote on Instagram below a joyful photo of her holding her first grandchild.
