The Royal Hashemite Court of Jordan first announced the pregnancy in April, making the royal baby the first grandchild for Hussein’s parents, King Abdullah II and Queen Rania.
Saudi-born architect Rajwa has made several public appearances during her pregnancy, including at King Abdullah’s Silver Jubilee. She has consistently embraced a red theme in her maternity wardrobe.
Shortly after the Royal Hashemite Court announced the couple’s joyous news, she celebrated her 30th birthday.
Crown Prince Hussein shared a beautiful photograph of Rajwa wearing a red shirt dress and striking gold earrings, marking her first public appearance since the pregnancy announcement.
