Engagement of CP Hamdan to Sh. Sheikha bint Saeed bin Thani Al Maktoum: Dec 2008

[dazzling]

The word about the engagemnet is that he choose his bride and he actually does know her (they are cousins). Marriage in the UAE these days are not like how they used to be 10years ago where it was all arranged and the groom did not see his wife. I know Hamdan has seen her and her picture was out in the UAE a few months ago.

I am from the UAE and I do have close contacts (not mentioning names) but Hamdan is still engaged.

If they are cousins how closely related are they?

We shall see if and when he gets married to her....So is it true that hes goin to marry this sept? what u tell me??

They are first cousin. Sheikh Hamdan's mother and Sh. Sheikha's mother are sisters.

How r u so sure dazzling ...

Here's a tip: if dazzling is sure, you can be sure as well.

Warren, that's for sure!!


I see nothing wrong that Sheikh Hamdan marries his first cousin as long as they are both in love.

Mentioning when it is without a back up source it would be violating the forum rules as speculation, sorry. Wedding is not in Spetember.

 

[LadyLove]

^^^^ I also think that. I think he is married. With all the secrecy going on I wouldn't be surprised if he also had some kids running around.

 

[Lindinha856]

Well to be honest w/ u guys i don't think he's married yet...i've talked to few sources that know the maktoum boys really well and especially this one person never said that he's married but engaged and if he was i am sure this person would of told me by now. I truly think that Hamdan seems a lil' too immature to be married. Example? Take a look a his pics during his free times w/ friends and tell me if he acts like a married man. He acts more like a lil' playboy wanna be....uhauhauhhuauha imo and if he was married let alone had any kids the public would of known by now especially nowadays w/ the media, paparazzi i believe he wouldn't be able to hide it...

Hamdan being married is just spculations. Hamdan doesnt seem like a type who will go off and marry when I think he had a goal who wanted to accomplish as being CP (I dont see anything wrong iwth it since he knew he was the best for it) he seems really busy and doesnt event have the same free time he once had.

 

[rad_rose]

i totally agree with you *****

Lets all get back on topic and keep this about Sheikh Hamdans engagemnet and not about Sheikh Hamdans marriage or how many wives he will have.

Thank you

Thanks Dazzling!
I alsmost forgot that i don't believe in the engagement story in the first place.
There is no proof for it and it seems to me Hamdan is not in a hurry and won't get marry for the next years.

Posts not concerning CP Hamdan's engagement have been moved to the Marriage Customs of the Ruling Family thread.

I see that Sheikh Hamdan looks spoiled in some pics but I think it is the way he deals with the stress that comes from all the meetings and traveling as Crown Prince

 

[wandyxiah]

I had talked to my friend in UAE, he said Sh-Hamdan already married.

Somebody tell me the truth, pls.

 

[bettina]

The truth is that we do not know. It is very likely that Hamdan will marry his cousin and that this marriage will be made public but we don't know till it happens. That said, in islam polygamy is allowed so he may already be married or marry more often later on. If Hamdan wants to follow in the footsteps of his dad, he can do so but it is unlikely he will let us know officially. The UAE royals are very secretive about their private lives. .

In the future also sheikh hamdan Dubai crown prince offical wife will never seen in public but, i am sure their kids will be out in publice spcial his daughters

 

[Dior]

Yes hamdan mother and sheikha sheikha mother sisters

 

[bettina]

That would be totally ridiculous and it would do Hamdans imago no good if he would hide his wife like that . I just cannot imagine Hamdan is going to dig his own carefully PR-ed grave. But let's just wait and see if Hamdan is going to marry at all since what girl in her right mind would agree with such an arrangement?!

 

[Lindinha856]

I honestly don't think hamdan will be a strict husband like hiding his wife from the world. He seems to be a cool guy thou, open minded and westernized a bit. I just can't see this marriage happenin at all. But would he run from the bride now? That's the big question!!

 

[bettina]

Hamdan sure got himself into a difficult situation but i cannot see him marrying someone and then keeping her behind closed doors. That would be totally against his image as a modern and tolerant prince charming. I just cannot imagine that he wants to end up looking like a freak with a hidden harem. Also for the image of Dubai, it would be bad to go backwards. Combining traditions and modern life can be done. Why do people always think they have to choose for extremes?

 

[Lindinha856]

Hahahah imagine hamdan w/ a hidden harem? That would b just wrong and freaky. Hope he's different than his daddy. dubai tries 2 portray a modern imagine like the west so that's why I don't think hamdan will b a strict husband. Hope he doesn't "cut" his wife's wings thou!
