Dubai Princess Sheikha Mahra bint Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum stunned everyone by announcing divorce from Sheikh Mana bin Mohammed bin Rashid bin Mana Al Maktoum a year after their marriage.

In a social media post, Sheikha Mahra accused her husband of infidelity and being preoccupied with other companions, while the latter remained quiet, despite the global coverage of this news. Mahra, the famous Royal Family member, married last year, and the couple welcomed their first child earlier this year.

Their wedding, celebrated with a poem by Sheikha Mahra’s father-in-law Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Bin Mana Al Maktoum, was a grand affair. Sheikha Mahra shared images from their Katb Al-Kitab ceremony, featuring her father and then-fiancé.

Their lavish reception in Dubai followed in June, with Sheikha Mahra in an exquisite gown by Dubai designer Ezra Couture. The couple enjoyed date nights and shared their honeymoon in Greece’s Mykonos, documented with joyful captions.

They welcomed their first child in May this year, marked by a gender reveal party in February. Despite outward appearances, their separation came as a surprise to their followers, especially as Sheikh Mana was pictured by Sheikha Mahra’s side during their daughter’s birth in the hospital.
