Dubai’s royal Sheikha Mahra bint Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum stunned her followers by announcing her divorce on social media last night. The couple had gotten married last year and welcomed a baby last month.
In a surprising turn of events, Sheikha Mahra took to Instagram on Tuesday to declare her divorce, repeating the announcement three times in the traditional Islamic manner. This post quickly went viral, drawing massive engagement from her fans. Eagle-eyed followers also noticed that the couple had unfollowed each other and deleted their photos together, sparking even more speculation.
Mahra had once enchanted her followers with her fairytale wedding photoshoot in June 2023. The ethereal images, mostly deleted now, showed her in a stunning, embroidered gown by Ezra Couture, complete with a net veil and an exquisite diamond necklace. Only a few photos remain on her account, capturing the essence of her bridal elegance.
Adding to the intrigue, six weeks ago, Mahra posted a cryptic photo with her daughter, captioned: “Just the two of us.”
Sheikha Mahra and Sheikh Mana officially announced their wedding in April 2023. By May 2024, they joyfully welcomed their baby girl, Sheikha Mahra bint Mana bin Mohammed Al Maktoum. The couple had even shared a gender reveal back in February, delighting their followers with their journey.
The online community is now buzzing with questions and comments, many of which only Sheikha Mahra and her former spouse can truly address. This unfolding drama continues to captivate audiences, making it one of the most talked-about topics in the region.
Life N Style cannot confirm if the two are divorced.
