Aside from being a member of the Jordanian royal family – also known as the Hashemite Dynasty – what else do we know about King Abdullah II and Queen Rania’s eldest daughter?

She comes from a tight-knit family

Princess Iman bint Abdullah of Jordan, or simply Princess Iman, is the second child of Queen Rania and King Abdullah II. She was born on September 27, 1996, in Jordan’s capital city, Amman, and has three siblings: Crown Prince Hussein, Princess Salma and Prince Hashem.

This young royal doesn’t have a public social media presence, but her Instagram-active mum often gives a glimpse of Princess Iman via heartfelt family home videos and photos. Queen Rania even voiced out her support for her daughter’s recent engagement on the ‘gram.

“Congratulations, my dearest Iman; your smile has always been a gift of love that I’ve cherished since the day you were born,” the proud mum said. “I wish you and Jameel a life filled with love and laughter!”

She’s marrying a New York-based financier

Who exactly is the Georgetown University alum marrying? Princess Iman’s fiancé is Jameel Alexander Thermiotis, a New York-based financier born in Caracas, Venezuela. Per British media, the 28-year-old business administration graduate hails from a Greek family and works as a managing partner for a venture capital fund in the Big Apple.

It’s unclear how long they have been dating, but they certainly have the blessing of Iman’s older brother, Crown Prince Hussein, too.

The royal bachelor gave the picture-perfect couple a shout-out on his Instagram: “Warmest congratulations to my dear sister Iman and her fiancé Jameel on their engagement. I wish you a lifetime of happiness together,” he captioned.
