Earlier this month, Crown Prince Hussein and Princess Rajwa of Jordan announced that they welcomed their first child: a baby girl named Princess Iman bint Hussein. And now, the royal couple are sharing first-look photos of their new family of three.

Last week, the future heir, 30, posted not one, but two brand-new pics of his family on Instagram. The first slide of the post features a candid snap of the new parents holding their newborn daughter in a baby carrier. Meanwhile, the following slide shows a touching photo of the crown prince happily holding his little princess in his arms while Princess Rajwa, 30, gazes down with a smile. 

The caption (written in both Arabic and English) reads, ‏“Heartfelt thanks to the dedicated personnel of the Royal Medical Services for their exceptional care over Rajwa and Iman during the past few days.”

Some royal admirers flooded the comments section with congratulatory responses. For example, one fan wrote, “Congratulations to the three of you.” Another couldn’t stop gushing over Princess Iman bint Hussein, writing, “Welcome to our beautiful world, pretty princess.”

This heartwarming post comes a couple of weeks after Crown Prince Hussein uploaded a beautiful video of himself carrying his newborn baby in his arms. In the clip, the proud dad is holding the swaddled princess and looks down at her with adoration. 

Months after Crown Prince Hussein and Princess Rajwa tied the knot in June 2023, the couple announced that they were expecting their first child. In a statement released by the Royal Hashemite Court, it read, “The Royal Hashemite Court extends its sincere congratulations to Their Majesties King Abdullah II and Queen Rania Al Abdullah on this occasion, and wishes Their Royal Highnesses Crown Prince Al Hussein and Princess Rajwa good health and joy as they welcome their baby.”

Keep the family pics coming, you two.
