It was in March last year that local press reported that Mahra Sheikha, 30, was engaged to Mana Al Maktoum. She is one of the more than 30 children of the controversial Emir of Dubai, Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, from his marriage to Greek Zoe Grigorakos, one of his six wives. The wedding took place months later, in June, and was celebrated in luxury at the Dubai World Trade Centre.
Mahra Sheikha graduated in Business from Zayed University in Dubai and studied international relations in London. She also developed her passion for horse riding at the Oxford Nursery School in the United Kingdom. She is particularly focused on promoting her country internationally, attending inaugurations and various charity events. Mana Al Maktoum, on the other hand, has ties to Dubai’s royalty and is passionate about skiing, football and horse racing. He is also very involved in the public life of his country.
The bride’s father, the Emir of Dubai, was involved in one of the most controversial divorces in recent times at the end of 2021 when his sixth wife, Princess Haya of Jordan, sister of King Abdullah, separated from him. In December of that year, he was ordered to pay a record sum of more than 700 million dollars to his ex-wife and their children, Al Jalila and Zayed. Princess Haya then became solely responsible for the medical care and schooling of the two youngest children.
