Queen Noor And Queen Rania Relationship Surges With CNN Interview
Following the recent interview of Queen Rania, curiosity about her relationship with the former Queen Noor surges.
After the death of his fourth wife, King Hussein met and married the then-27-year-old Noor Al Hussein.
As Queen Noor has admitted, in many instances, it was not an easy decision for her to become the wife of the King.
Similarly, it was difficult for Queen Rania to be royalty as she came from an ordinary background.
She met Prince Abdullah II at a party thrown by the prince’s sister and instantly fell in love.
Meanwhile, after the King’s death, Prince Abdullah took his place, and six weeks later, the King elevated his wife Rania to the status of Queen.
In addition, Hamzah, the oldest son of Queen Noor, was declared the crown prince.
However, this was not the case for a long time, as the late King already removed Hamzah from the position of crown prince.
Moreover, the oldest son of Queen Rania, Al Hussein, is now next in line to be the new ruler.
This resulted in a tense relationship between Queen Noor and Queen Rania.
Despite having a new ruler in Jordan, Noor kept her title, and everyone still called her the Queen.
Further, Queen Noor and Queen Rania never understood each other, complexing their relationship.
In 2021, tensions finally peaked when accusations of an attempted coup surfaced against Hamzah.
Moreover, authorities accused him of destabilizing the kingdom and placed him under house arrest.
Despite hailing from the Western system, Queen Noor and Queen Rania have a problematic relationship.
