AMMAN — First Lady of the US Jill Biden will be attending HRH Crown Prince Hussein’s wedding to Miss Rajwa Al Saif, on June 1, media outlets reported.

 

The first lady's spokesperson confirmed her attendance on May 26, and shared that her visit will also include a number of stops across the Middle East and North Africa. Jill's attendance comes after she and her husband, President Joe Biden, have built a long-standing friendship with Their Majesties King Abdullah and Queen Rania. 

 

Other European royals confirmed for the special day include Belgium's King Philippe and his 21-year-old daughter Princess Elisabeth. 

 

A number of foreign royals have already confirmed their attendance, including  Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary of Denmark, Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel of Sweden, Crown Prince Haakon of Norway, and Princess Hisakoa and Princess Tsuguko of Japan.

 

The Queen of Malaysia, Queen Azizah, also recently revealed that she would be at the service with her husband.

 

However although the British royal family shares a close connection with the Jordanian royals it is unclear if the Prince and Princess of Wales may be in attendance.

 

The wedding will take place at the Zahran Palace in Amman.
