- At the wedding of Jordanian Prince Hussein, this ice-white-haired woman took pride of place. This is Princess Muna, the mother of the current King of Jordan, Abdullah II. Today she is one of the most respected ladies in her country. However, she was once disliked in the royal palace. Why did she have a brutal fate? And for what reason did she divorce King Hussein?

I salute her even i dont know her but she is a woman of strenght. Everyone can see that her family adores her
Maybe she didn’t remarry because she didn’t feel the need for male companionship. She seems to have been given a generous alimony settlement, treated with a decent amount of respect following the divorce. And it’s possible that if she remarried she would have lost some of the perks she was given from the divorce as well as the princess title.
Yes, and when you’re in the position of influence, sometimes remaining unmarried, it’s to your benefit, and just have a long string of boyfriends and you never know Fish might be because even though they are divorced they may still continue to see each other because he does not sound like he was off. I hate to say it, a faithful husband if we could cheat on this nice lady, they gave him for children, and he sounds like he had a wandering eye, even though he said in the beginning when they were getting to know each other that she treated him like just like a man and that she treated him like a human being, and that’s what he up because that at that particular time is his life, he was not being treated like he was human, he was treated like he was the king and there’s always people know trying to gain something from him and even though he said, for the second marriage was for love, even he had a chance to basically F, that up because of his wandering eye, and his religion does give him more than one right to actually take on another wife, but because her upbringing being Christian, she didn’t wanna take second place to no other woman even though she is the wood be the first wife, she didn’t want to share, which is totally understandable. That’s how she just quietly bowed out at the relationship. She didn’t want to cause any disturbance because she was freight. Probably one frayed that if she did that she would be isolated from her children because unfortunately, in those countries, the man is always giving Writes our children and the marriage and it’s just not strictly that he was also the king so he had triple the right to actually keep his children because now they’re actually part of the Royal family. And she understood that which, unfortunately does crop of women do not always understand when you marry a foreigner of certain countries, and she did what she thought was right to stay involved in her children’s lives, because they could’ve actually not let her see them at all he could’ve actually barred her from seeing her own children and also, I’m thinking also even though it’s all right to actually move on to another relationship, I think she knew that if she had moved on, she knew she probably would never seen her children again and that’s why she never moved on to somebody else because just like her husband can move on but unfortunately what is good for the goose is not always good for the gander. To do the same thing, so there is always going to be that double standard and if she even thought to bring somebody else, and I do believe her ex-husband would’ve had a fit and whatever love he would’ve had for her would’ve went out the window because just because he doing not want it does not mean he wants somebody else to want it what he had to run away, was a good woman, which is kind of a shame that all the profession of love he said that he for her in good qualities she brought out in him he could not still not keep his eyes From wandering
Very smart beautiful women
@@vlsice663 😘
Yet King Hussein married TWICE after their divorce. He was sacrificing nothing.
If she left jordan she would be poor again.
She is more beautiful now than in youth!
Nam203
I think so, too. Her current hairstyle is flattering, and her sartorial style is a great mixture of the European and Middle Eastern cultures.
I agree, in youth she was somehow bland, not a beauty, what you would expect for a King,but the love was important
@@TheSwisscanada Pity that love died out.
Agreed. She is quite attractive. Interesting how things came full circle for her.
I know in Islam is very well received if a woman that’s left by the husband never remarried especially for the children so that’s why she is well appreciate by the family of her ex and the country. I admire her for not giving up and be herself!
When a woman has brought up her children to and they are already adults married and with their own lives Islam or not a woman have a right to marry again I do think king Abdullah and his siblings would objected to their mother having a life of her own
Queen Noor wasn’t King Hussein’s “ex-wife.” She was his WIDOW!
In my opinion, she looks more beautiful now than when she was younger.
That happens some people end up looking better as they age!! wish I was one lol
Exactly
She was invited to royal weddings because she was the paternal grandmother of those kids and she was close to her own children. No point of comparing her to Noor who was a step mother.
Paternal grandmother of the current king’s children
@@georgiecapablecorrect
Note: PRINCESS Muna and QUEEN Noor.
'Nuf sed.
Princess Muña is the mother of King and grandmother of the prince who marry.
Hussein was a womanizer. Who knows if he had divorced Noor eventually.
Admirable and Intelligent woman!
Interesting info.
You say he remarried Queen Alia, his third wife. That implies he was married to her before, which I'm pretty sure is not true.
You called Queen Noor his ex wife. King Hussein did NOT divorce Queen Noor.
Yes, Queen Noor is his widow
And she retains the title Queen. Not only she was not invited to the wedding, her son was stripped of his title by the new king. So everything in that family is not so picture perfect, there must have been several internal fights
@@vetfred1977 Good Tv fodder
Queen Noor was not an ex-wife to the king. She was his wife when he died.
Queen Noor was love of king houssin life. And she was the most beautiful and prestigious lady.
Yes Queen Noor was indeed King Hussein's wife when he died.
Interesting how things came full circle for her. Her and Queen Rania definitely get along. That's pretty evident.
Thanks to you. There is a whole difference when we see a woman marrying for love and not for social climbing or money. So different when a woman loves her family, educate her children and respect their decisions. We see or hear so much craziness today. She deserves all the rewards received for her commitment, her prudence, and the social work she has done actually. A Dame. Queen Rania is a jewel. So elegant, beautiful and devoted to the people of Jordan.
Rania leaves much to be desired. She is jealous and small-minded. She doesn't possess the social grace or political savvy to keep an easy peace with everyone, which is part of the job and position she holds as current queen. Her treatment of Queen Noor betrays her pettiness and reduces the status of Jordan and the Jordanian monarchy..
As for Princess Muna, she married the King of Jordan and has a very privileged position even after they became divorced. Finding a second husband after you married a King, would be very challenging to match. She cannot just choose any Tom, Dick, or Harry at that point.
For sure, not a "Harry" !!!!!

More dumb rules from Muslims. Their focus is on all the wrong things.
Queen Noor wasn't an ex-wife, but a widow as the two were still married upon the time of Kin Hussein's passing.
What an noble, responsable, friendly, charming and respectful Lady is Princess Muna!
She did not marry again, she seems like an Princess, who is very intense content with her private life! She socialized her work as wellfare fundraiser and for other needy persons. This, she takes very seriouse, so dont need to have an partner who messes up her time, energy, and attentions!
She went true a lot, i think she is very satisfied with her life know, with her sons families! She dont need a specific person in her life, to make her happy and she is not searching aither! Her former husband was the love of her life! No other man can stand in his shoes!!!
She still is an grande lady! Chapeau to her!
Amazing story about an amazing woman! She is a very wise woman! Thanks for sharing.
She shows great dignity , and that is alone is infinite beauty as one age's .
Why remarry after that many children and having married a king ?!
Companionship? Love? Sex? Just to name a few. She was young when they divorced. That's a long long time to go without having a mate.
Princess Munna divorced. Why ? Short answer is lust. playboy king.
She was/ is treated with respect, has a very full life in Jordan, with many true friends, meaningful voluntary work and still has a great sense of humor. Don't worry about her! Part of the resistance to her back in the 60s was Jordanians' discomfort with British deep political involvement in Jordan from WWI on till greater disengagement in the 1950s-60s.
she looks amazing in her age!
I'm sure I remember at the time the divorce was announced, her never marrying was part of the conditions.
The King used to speak to my aunt through radio waves in the sixties. Her pride and joy was an embossed card with the King's radio wave number. Long life to the King.
She didn't remarry because she's a smart and shrewd lady She's gorgeous.
She sounds like an amazing woman. She certainly is a outstanding looking lady.
Princess Muna may not have remarried, because she wanted to keep her very good status and influence in Jordan and to the RF. Very wise and understandable.
One must remember Anne of Cleve, Henry VII’s 4th wife, who graciously agreed to a quick divorce in exchange for the gift of wealth and palaces and an honored position in the royal family, as long as she didn’t 🎉remarry, to which she 😅 quite happyly agreed. However, I’m astonished that Hussein would dump the mother of his heir for a mistress. Shame!
Some men never seem to understand the value of a strong woman who has substance , her own identity and opinions beyond just being a wife and mother. He betrayed her at the deepest level and if their was any revenge on him is that Princess Mun continued to live life, raise her children and strive to make this world a better place, and has done so. No wilting flower is a English Rose. A Role model young girls should think about - to become a Woman of Worth. Thank you for this story, I have a great deal of Respect for this lovely lady ❤❤
It’s ok at the end she is where should have been. Mother of the king🎉🎉🎉
Because if she was leaving the country after divorcing the King, she could never see her children again, they had to stay with the father in Jordan
Meaning she had to swallow the hard pill. And when her son was chosen to be the new king she played the revenge against Noor and her kids. I m not 100% sure she’s just a sweet old lady
She didn't remarry because King Hussein was such an incredible man that she knew it was very difficult to find someone similar to him!!
Because she's a real woman who wanted the best for her children, putting their welfare first!
Faithfulness is Queen Muna's legacy.
Elegant woman ! Class !
Not sure why this claims little is known of her mom. Her mom just disappeared? Toni Gardiner AKA Princess Muna was born in Norfolk, England on April 25, 1941 to Walter Percy "Tony" Gardiner and Doris Elizabeth Sutton. Doris Elizabeth Sutton born Jan 9, 1916 ( easily found on several docs including ship passage when Toni and her mom traveled from UK to Malaya ( should have said Malaysia) in 1955 aboard the Empire Clyde. The wedding announcement mentioned how Toni went to school in Kuala Lumpur. Her mom's parents were Arthur Sutton and Dora Elizabeth Alderton. Arthur was a shepherd at the time of their daughter Doris Elizabeth's birth per Doris Elizabeth's birth registry record. Wonder why the Sutton/Alderton maternal side was discounted as early as Toni's wedding announcement to King Hussein when she was 20. Seemed her mom and she moved with her dad's military orders. And it was just the two of them. I find that so curious.
She had respect for her husband's culture and himself and had to do the British thing and seek a divorce so the king could marry his wives,very complicated ❤❤, princess muna is cool, she didn't take the kids, she raised them in Jordan 🇯🇴
Yes, kudos to her! Wot goes around comes around as the saying goes. She deserves all that is going for her at this stage.
A Shrewd, wife and Mother and Queen!!
She had to get along with the king after the divorce. I am sure she did not want to lose her children. She knew who had the upper hand in the situation.
She and Queen Rania have served Jordan very well.
Princess Muna is smart lady, she think her children first, not have to marry second husband if her children not his, most second marriage are opposite. Also Princess is happy as she has. She's still beautiful. She might have 2 religions as Christian/Islam but she's strongly Christian more than Islam about divorce/remarry.🤔
Interesting! I think she did not remarry because she would have lost her influence on the children and on Jordan. With a new man on her side, she would have lost a part of her role in the family, that is obvious.
Lies you tell .hussein divorced her to marry the palestinian alia touqan from a prominant family in Nablus two years after black september war . Most jordanians like queen alia ,are originally palestinians
3.48 how the hell could he be 25 and have ruled for 10 years .he could never have started ruling at 15
Hussein became king a few months before his sixteenth birthday. A regent ruled for him until he turned eighteen.
Because. She. Loves. Her. Children. And. She. Keeps. Her. Respect. As. A. Princess. Tital. She. Is. An. Intelligent. Princess. Her. Son. Gave. Back. Her. Place. As. A. Queen. Mum.
You also did not mention which wife was killed in the helicopter crash?
"su tercera esposa,reina alía.🕊️🕊️
Alia was killed in the crash. And the pilot.
Queen Alia, King Hussein's third wife died in a helicopter crash.
Queen Alia died in a helicopter crash … sadly this video is not accurate.
She was married to a king, she wouldn't leave because that would jeopardize the status of her children, especially her son becoming an heir, she was also very clever in getting the trust of the king for the benefit of her kids which makes her a good and clever mother BUT, she was also rumoured about the possibility of involvement in queen Alia's accident but maybe it wasn't true!! Bottom line; she was strategic, cunning, clever and loved herself and her children enough to lay low for their own benefit.
I agree with you 100%! This doc is too sugar coated, your description is much more dependable
She didn’t divorce King Hussein. King Hussein divorced her because he fell in love with Queen Alia while he was still married to her. In order to marry Queen Alia, he had to divorce her.
King Hussein is play-boy
The late Queen Alia was so beautiful. King Hussein was heartbroken when Queen Alia was killed in a helicopter crash.

This was interesting information.
This vlogger is either ignorant of the fact or simply just wants to hit at the former queen Noor. Muna is the mother of the present king Abdullah. Hussein divorced her and married another a long time ago. Now, that her son is the present king of Jordan, it's their time to shine, so they do not invite any wife of the late king Hussein to any of their family occasions for whatever reasons - only their royal family knows for sure. Simple as that.
,loved this
I admire her son for still acknowledging his mother no matter what ever happened between his father and her
The condition on which she retained custody of their children was that she was not allowed to remarry - thus giving her the choice of caring for her children or enjoying love in another relationship like her ex-husband Hussein.
Very cruel I thought at the time of their divorce, and read the terms.'However, she has come through triumphantly, and has become a very beautiful woman compared with somewhat plain and dowdy girl who married Hussein
Had she remarried she may no longer be recognized as Princess & her place in the Royal Family may become remote.
Admiration for such an amazing woman 💓💓💓🌸🌸🌸🌸
She is so pretty and I love her white hair and the way she dresses.
Queen Noor is not King Hussein "ex", she's his widow.
If she remarried, then she would be divorced from all the luxury that was still commited to her by the generous King, as the mother of his children. She played her cards well.
She had everything she needed, a home, her children and the friendship of the man she loved why sully that.
Very beautiful and clasy Lady! ❤
Queen Alia was for a very long time close to King Hussein. They used to play together. Her parents were also close to the young king when he was in Egypt. He felt duty-bound to marry her.
She was married to a king whom she loved deeply, she would not meet some one to fill his place in her opinion. May be, no one got her heart after the king. I heared that he did not divorce her but he abanded her and she stayed in her palace as she used to be.
“Another X-wife of king Husain “
Queen Noor was never divorced .
Love is the only thing that matters keepin the two persons together, not religion or nationality!
Wooow...he really is an person with an pure, funny, good and romantic person (i am talking about the Father of King Abdullah II)
Eine bewundernswerte Frau - Respekt!
😊to a women once love and they let down as she got 4 children she would just looked after her children by not bother you won t get your heart broken anymore then she try her best to be happy for herself and her children
ما شاء الله تقف بدون مساعده وكعب عالي وبلا مناظر عمرها فوق الثمانين شنو هذي النعمه
At the end.. a photo of queen Sonja of Norway.
Noor didn't divorce the late king passed of cancer
She became very stylish as she aged
She would have probably lost her children.
She maybe did not re-marry as she still wanted to be influenced as kings mother. Muna's son was 1st son...so crown prince. Normal ladies will not marry again if her son be a future king. Power is great.
Its bad that King Abdullah invited only his Mother Muna, and not his father's last wife who were still married with 3~4 kids. How come king Abdullah never invite last kings wife queen to the royal event????
His first wife had a white traditional dress, long before Muna. And many Royal Arabs had white wedding dresses from the early 19th century*
Probably because she stayed in Jordan and was raising her children. A boyfriend for the mother of a future king was not well looked upon at the time. Hopefully she has someone she shares her time with now
She couldn't remarry and enjoy the same status in the country. Her ex husband was King. In those countries the male rules. Especially, in Royal 👑 circles. One has to be mindful of their children and the effect any remarriage has on them. In that aspect. Misogyny is alive and well. Why doesn't anyone wonder why Queen Noor hasn't remarried? She was still young and attractive when King Hussein passed. It was rumored she was dating Billionaire George Soris. He was definitely interested in her. But, she couldn't do it. It's a double edged sword marrying any man of such rank in the M.E. You're kind of imprisoned to the marriage if it goes South and you have kids by the man. You must think of reputation and the effect it has on their future lives. Saving face is everything there in the social milieu of the nobility in the M.E.
Queen Noor is NOT anyone's ex-wife, as is falsely noted in this video. Queen Noor was King Hussein's wife for a long time, including at the time of his death. Queen Noor is a widow, not a divorcee.
Queen Noor's son was, in recent years, arrested by his half brother, the current king of Jordan -- the son of Princess Muna.
Queen Noor's son was detained under arrest.
Princess Muna's son, the current king of Jordan, must feel very insecure if he imagines, as he seems to, that he must lock up his half brother -- Queen Noor's son -- to retain the crown.
SMH
There are a number of errors in this video.
I say King Hussain (spelling) wanted many children and many women might've not wanted to have 8 or more children.
It is widely believed that princess Muna did not convert to Islam. Also I find your remark about a white wedding dress rather strange!! Wearing a white wedding dress is not restricted to “western culture”!! brides wear white dresses in the Middle Eastern countries … in fact they do that all over the world. 👰♀️ 🌍
❤❤
@brittji5126. I didn't marry into royalty. I've never remarried after my divorce. I had a very discrete relationship with a man. I'd say Muna's children would've remained with the King if she remarried. If she married a westerner she might not been able to have as good relationship with children and the then King.
Crap, king Hussain never ever had two wives at the same time, he could of kept all his wife but he did not. It’s about him rather her background !
What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their

Queen Noor isn't "another ex-wife"... she is a widow. They never divorced
And Queen Noor?
Why ask why did she divorce.. Her man had many brides.
She didn’t marry because of money & tittle of course!
Maybe she didn't remarry because she's knows men only want kleenex wives. When you have money and a great life you don't need to put up with a man!!
King Hussein preferred the first born son of Queen Noor, but as tradition the first born son to his first wife will be the king, but as the dying wish of King Hussein,after the King Abdullah, the first born son of Queen Noor will be the king, but didn’t happen, king Abdullah broke the dying wish of his father.
Amazing how she got much more beautiful as an older woman.
Ich war immer davon uberzeugt , dass Rania ein gute Politikerin ist
I wonder does she have a good relationship with Queen Noor
King Hussein was very dishy LOVELY accent. They always had close relationship with UK royalty. Wife's can be extras.. Mothers.. Replaced.
She wasnt born into a custom of second or third wife position so when hubby fancied another called it a day and there after parenting was shared dutu
By the end she is the mother of the king she is the queen of jordan is the queen mother mona al hussein but her rights been taken hope so his majesty king Abdullah considered his mistake ### greeting from her highness saudi 🇸🇦
SHI IS MOTHER AND QUEEN . AND LADY .
Queen Noor eldest should have been named crown prince.
Regina RANIA la più bella del pianeta ❤❤❤️🌹🌹🌹
She was most probably assigned to keep an eye on the Jordanian royalty by the British she couldn’t have left Jordan with that kind of duty
Or... she wanted to stay near her kids?
😂😂😂 … I think the Brits would not find it hard to appoint spies if they wanted to …. She clearly wanted to say close to her children in a country she grew to love and call home.

She’s not the first one to deny Jesus to marry a prince or a king and it’s unfortunate
