Princess Iman of Jordan Weds New York Financier, Jamil Alexander Thermitossian
Princess Iman of Jordan, the second child and eldest daughter of King Abdullah II and Queen Rainier, has tied the knot with her fiancé, Jamil Alexander Thermitossian.
The couple got married on Sunday in a traditional Muslim ceremony.
The bride looked stunning in a custom Dior wedding gown, and she wore a tiara that's been speculated to be Queen Rainier's triangular diamond tiara.
The wedding was attended by close friends and family members, and Princess Iman's elder brother, Crown Prince Hussein, walked her down the aisle per alleged Muslim custom.
The couple will reside in New York City, where the groom is a financier.
Queen Rainier was incredibly proud of her daughter's big day and posted wedding photos to her Instagram account.

The photos included shots from Princess Iman's hen party a few days before the wedding.
Her dress and veil were absolutely beautiful, not a wrinkle in sight, and perfectly tailored to her body.
Meghan should take note.
However, while the world celebrates the union of Princess Iman and Jamil Alexander Thermitossian, there are still tensions brewing within the British royal family.
The Fab Four: A Cracking Relationship
Meghan Markle's wedding to Prince Harry in May 2018 was supposed to be a fairy tale come true, but reports of tension between the brothers and their wives have surfaced since then.
The relationship between Prince Harry and Prince William has reportedly deteriorated ever since, with tensions building up in the run-up to the wedding at St George's Chapel, Windsor.
Reports suggest that arguments over a tiara, what the bridesmaids should wear, and Meghan's father's poor health caused the rift.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were once dubbed the Fab Four, but cracks started to appear before their wedding day.
Meghan's Wedding Dress Controversy
Meghan Markle's choice of a pure white wedding dress was questioned by the Queen.
An inside source revealed that the Queen was surprised that Meghan wore pure white on her wedding day.
Perhaps it's a generational thing, but she believes that if you've been married before, you should wear off-white on your wedding day, which is what the Duchess of Cornwall did.
American Idol judge Katy Perry once took a jab at the newlywed Duchess right after the wedding.
In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Perry expressed her opinion, saying, “I would have done one more fitting.
I'm never not going to tell the truth.”
She added that she preferred Catherine's wedding dress over Markle's.
Katy exclaimed, “Kate, Kate, Kate won,” declaring her complete inclination towards the Princess of Wales.
Meghan is still reportedly unhappy with Katy Perry's past comment about her wedding dress.
A source said, “Meghan is keenly aware of a comment that Katy Perry made in 2018 about a wedding dress, and is notorious for holding a grudge.
While the comment wasn't meant to be hurtful, Meghan felt under siege at that time.”
Archie and Lilibet's Royal Titles
There are also critics of the monarchy who are furious that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's two children, Archie and Lilibet, have been given royal titles.
According to royal expert and editor-in-chief of Majesty magazine Ingrid Seward, the difference between the announcements of Archie and Lilibet's royal titles and Prince Edward's title change was stark.
One word was missing from Archie and Lilibet's announcement, which was issued by Harry and Meghan themselves.
King Charles issued a formal statement from Buckingham Palace to say he was pleased to confer the Dukedom of Edinburgh upon the Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex and Forfa.
It was such a grand announcement it felt as if it were in a gilded frame, pinned to the Buckingham Palace railings.
While the world celebrates the union of Princess Iman and Jamil Alexander Thermitossian, tensions within the British royal family continue to simmer.
