Jordan’s Royal Wedding, William and Kate’s Arrival
During these hours, princes representing King Charles were seen in the capital of Jordan. A long-awaited visit confirming the strong bond between the two countries, confirmed by the participation of King Abdullah and Queen Rania in the coronation of Charles III.. Indeed, Jordan is a historical ally of the Anglo-Saxons – it is no coincidence that the name of the first lady Jill Biden appears among the guests – Prince Hussein also studied at Sandhurst Academy, like his father Abdullah, the same institute that William and Harry attended before graduating from Georgetown University in Washington majoring in history. It should also be said that the Princess of Wales herself has a very personal relationship with Jordan, where she spent part of her childhood when her parents worked for British Airways.
In addition to William and Kate, today’s ceremony will also be attended by King Philippe of Belgium with his wife Mathilde and daughter Elisabeth, members of the Royal Family of the Netherlands with Katarina Amalia, and Prince Frederik and Princess Marie of Denmark on behalf of the Queen, who is still recovering from surgery. . There will also be Victoria of Sweden with her husband Daniel, Prince Haakon of Norway, the princes of Japan and the heir to the throne of Luxembourg. Felipe VI and Letizia of Spain will instead be represented by Juan Carlos, who lived in the United Arab Emirates for many years after a hasty escape from Madrid in 2020, and Sofia. Another great occasion for representatives of European monarchies to meet again to celebrate the future of the Jordanian royal family.
The celebrations began tonight with a sumptuous banquet hosted by the sovereign for 4,000 Jordanians, a way to bring together the many souls of a country that, more than any other, has managed to maintain stability and order in recent decades, even after the attempted coup d’état by the king’s half-brother. Today, it continues with wedding vows, a ceremony and a long-awaited red procession of 20 red Land Rovers that will escort the newlyweds to Al Husseiniyah Palace. There will be a lavish reception for approximately 2,000 guests, as well as a show dedicated to the Saudi heritage of the bride, a young architecture graduate from Syracuse University in New York.
