Queen Rania of Jordan has shared a stunning new photograph of her daughter Princess Iman wearing her tiara ahead of her wedding next week.
Princess Iman, 25, is the second-born child of Queen Rania, 51, and King Abdullah II, 60, and is due to marry her partner Jameel Alexander Thermiotis on March 12.
It was announced last July that Princess Iman was engaged to Venezuela-born Jameel, who is around two years older than the princess and works as a Managing Partner for a Venture Capital fund based in New York.
Queen Rania shared a video on Instagram yesterday in tribute to her daughter, with a number of pictures appearing in the montage – including a photograph of the 25-year-old in her glittering diamond tiara.
The 51-year-old wrote: ‘After a week, God willing, I will see you as a bride… I put you in the name of God, Iman, the basil of the house… May God help you and enlighten your path.’

‘The first time I held my baby girl, I knew my life would never be the same. In a week, she will be a bride.’
Queen Rania continued: ‘My precious Iman, I am so happy for you and so proud of everything that you are.’
Meanwhile she added: ‘Thanks to the creative artist Elissa for the dedication and to the great artist Marwan Khoury for lyrics and melodies… Heart touching voice and expressive words.
‘Thank you to the very talented @elissazkh and to the brilliant @imarwankhoury for this wonderful gift and for your amazing ability to capture sentiments so beautifully.’
Queen Rania first wore her Diamond Tiara for a spectacular State Banquet hosted by the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh in Windsor Castle in 2001. She wore it again for a portrait that same year.
It is possible the snap was a hint at the tiara which Iman will wear on her wedding day.
The engagement announcement last year was a delightful surprise for royal fans, since the couple have kept their relationship under wraps , and it was not clear how long they have been dating.
In personal statement shared on her Instagram account, Queen Rania said: ‘Congratulations my dearest Iman; your smile has always been a gift of love that I’ve cherished since the day you were born. I wish you and Jameel a life filled with love and laughter!’
