The news comes nearly five months after the couple celebrated their nuptials at the Saeed Hall at the Dubai World Trade Centre. The bride looked radiant in an Ezra Couture gown and the couple shared a series of photos looking very happy together across their respective social platforms — including special moments cutting the wedding cake together, their smiles reflecting the pure joy of embarking on this new chapter of their lives.
The Dubai royal couple then spent the summer travelling together, sharing Instagram Stories of their adventures in Greece. Recently the pair have been in the UK, celebrating Sheikh Mana‘s birthday at a countryside estate.

He also appears to be an adventurous soul at heart. From skiing at Courchevel to deep-sea fishing, it only take a quick scroll through his feed feed to see he enjoys living life to the fullest.
