French Montana and Sheikha Mahra have been spotted together since 2024 at mosques to dining in upscale restaurants in Dubai

ROYAL ROMANCE: PRINCESS OF DUBAI TIES THE KNOT WITH RAPPER FRENCH MONTANA IN A FAIRYTALE WEDDING

Just a year after she sensationally "dumped" her husband via Instagram, the Princess of Dubai, Sheikha Mahra Bint Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, is set to tie the knot with rapper French Montana in an extravagant ceremony that promises to be nothing short of spectacular. The news has left fans and media outlets alike buzzing with excitement as they await details of the nuptials.

The 31-year-old Princess, who boasts a staggering estimated worth of $300 million, has been making headlines for her high-profile romance with French Montana, the Moroccan-American rapper, since 2024. The couple's whirlwind romance has seen them jet-set around the world, sharing intimate moments on social media that have left fans green with envy.

But what's even more intriguing is Sheikha Mahra's history of high-profile relationships and marriages. Just last year, she sensationally "dumped" her ex-husband, Sheikh Mana bin Mohammed bin Rashid bin Mana Al Maktoum, in a public Instagram post that sent shockwaves across the world.

A DIVORCE IN THE MAKING

Sheikha Mahra's marriage to Sheikh Mana was short-lived, lasting only a year and ending abruptly just two months after they welcomed their daughter. Rumors of infidelity clouded their relationship, with Sheikha Mahra taking to Instagram to declare her divorce in a dramatic fashion.

The musician, 40, commissioned fine jeweller Mavani, who only makes custom pieces by appointment, to create the engagement ring which reportedly costs seven figures

"Dear Husband, as you are occupied with other companions, I hereby declare our divorce," she wrote in the post, using the Islamic practice of triple talaq, where Muslim men can divorce women by stating their intention three times verbally. "I divorce you, I divorce you, and I divorce you. Take care. Your ex-wife."

The Princess's decision to use triple talaq sparked a heated debate on social media, with many questioning the legitimacy of the practice in modern times.

A NEW LOVE BLOSSOMS

Fast forward to 2024, and Sheikha Mahra has found love again with French Montana, who has been spotted cradling her hand on multiple occasions. The couple's romance has been a subject of fascination for fans, who can't get enough of their jet-set lifestyle.

French Montana, whose real name is Karim Kharbouch, has an estimated worth of $50 million and has previously dated Khloe Kardashian. But it seems he's found his perfect match in Sheikha Mahra, who brings with her a staggering fortune and a family legacy that spans billions.

A FAIRYTALE WEDDING

Last year, Sheikha Mahra posted a snap of herself with her daughter and wrote 'just the two of us'

The couple's engagement was announced last week, with Sheikha Mahra flaunting a stunning seven-figure diamond ring on Instagram. The fine jeweler Mavani, who created the custom piece, posted a video of the glitzy ring on their Instagram, writing: "We want to thank French for trusting us with this enormous 7-figure 11.53ct GIA emerald cut ring that he commissioned us to make for this special moment!"

The Princess's last wedding was nothing short of opulent, with reports suggesting it cost a staggering $50 million. Sheikha Mahra tied the knot with her ex-husband in May 2023 at the Zabeel Hall of the Dubai World Trade Centre, surrounded by lavish decorations and impeccable style.

This time around, fans can expect an even more extravagant ceremony that will put all previous weddings to shame. With a combined estimated worth of $350 million, Sheikha Mahra and French Montana are set to exchange vows in a fairytale wedding that promises to be nothing short of spectacular.
