Make way, another photo of Princess Rajwa of Jordan, 30, showing off her growing baby bump, coming through.

In honor of the Crown Prince of Jordan’s 30th birthday, his mom, Queen Rania, dedicated a heartfelt birthday tribute to her son on her personal Instagram account. For the special occasion, the 53-year-old royal posted a photo of the Crown Prince of Jordan and his wife, Princess Rajwa, who is pregnant with their first child.

As the couple look off into the distance, Princess Rajwa’s growing belly is peeking through her dress. Along with a message written in both English and Arabic, the queen wrote the caption, “Happy birthday my dearest Hussein. Can’t wait to see you and Rajwa as parents!”

This is not the first time Princess Rajwa has showcased her growing baby bump. A few weeks back, the Crown Prince, Princess Rajwa and the rest of their family members celebrated King Abdullah’s Silver Jubilee, which marked the 25th anniversary since the 62-year-old monarch became the king of Jordan on June 9, 1999.

Crown Prince Hussein shared a never-before-seen photo of himself and his wife on social media. In the snap, Princess Rajwa is all smiles as she dons an embellished cape and a striking red dress, which shows off her growing belly.

Meanwhile, Crown Prince Hussein is standing right beside her while sporting a navy blue suit, a white collared shirt and a necktie. The caption read, “Rajwa and I before the national event marking the #SilverJubilee of His Majesty.”

Just months before Princess Rajwa and Crown Prince Hussein announced they were expecting their first child, the royal couple tied the knot on June 1, 2023. Though the guest list was filled with many notable names, Prince William and his wife, Kate Middleton, were another high-profile royal couple who were in attendance.
