She was educated in India and is now studying at a university in the UK. Obviously, the girl will be a diplomat, since she is getting a profession in international relations.

33-year-old Hamdan has long been at the top of the list of the most eligible bachelors. He bears the titles of Sheikh, His Excellency and His Highness! At the same time, he does not sit in the halls of a palace with a thousand servants. More often it can be found on ski resorts and on long journeys with a backpack on your back. But more about everything.

Heir to the throne

Hamdan, better known by his stage name Fazza, was born on November 13, 1982. Hamdan is the second son of Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al Maktoum and his first wife Hind bint Maktoum bin Youma al Maktoum.

It is curious that the Maktoum dynasty, to which the prince belongs, has been in power since 1833 and has ruled Dubai since 1971. Hamdan's father Sheikh Mohammed is prime minister and vice president of the United United Arab Emirates.

By according to Forbes for 2013, his fortune is estimated at $39.5 billion. At the same time, the sheikh does not hide his fabulous wealth. On the contrary, he is known for his generosity. At one time, he gave Michael Schumacher the island of Antarctica in the area of ​​​​the artificial archipelago The World, worth $ 7 million.

Hamdan's mother got married right after school, at the age of 17. And soon she gave the sheikh an heir. Higher education the woman did not receive it, deciding that this was far from the main thing. She strictly observes local traditions and culture. She does not accompany her husband to public events and on business trips... Maybe that’s why there is still not a single confirmed photograph of Her Majesty in the press.

However, Hamdan’s family cannot be called ideal either. His older brother Rashid ibn Mohammed, due to his excessive love of sports, first became addicted to stereoids, and then to drugs, for which he was excommunicated by his father from the throne.

Study in London

Despite all the wealth and luxury that surrounded Hamdan since childhood, he grew up in severity. After studying at a private school named after Sheikh Rashid, he entered the faculty administrative management Dubai Government School.

After which, at the insistence of his parents, he continued his education in Great Britain - at the Royal Military Academy in Sandhurst, where the heirs to the British throne, Harry and William, also studied at one time.

“Studying at Sandhurst developed in me self-discipline, responsibility, dedication and the ability to work in a team. After the academy, I also graduated from the London School of Economics,” the heir admitted in an interview with Vision magazine.

Lions instead of cats

Since February 1, 2008, Fazza has been the Crown Prince of Dubai. As well as the head of the hedge fund HN Capital LLP and the president of the new university named after him. The prince also holds the positions of head of the Young Entrepreneurs Support League, the Dubai Emirate Sports Committee and the Dubai Autism Research Center.

And, it would seem, with such an official list of responsibilities, the prince would bury himself in papers and not see the world. Not at all. Hamdan can be found at all kinds of summits... and at equestrian competitions, from which the heir to the throne usually returns victorious.

In general, Fazza’s list of hobbies is huge: skydiving, diving, fishing, falconry, snowboarding, cycling and horses... Fazza never skimped on buying new handsome men with manes. The titled person has several dozen of the best stallions from all over the world in her kitty. Among other things, the sheikh has several camels, on one of which he spent almost $3 million.

As pets, Hamdan got himself a pair of white tigers and two albino lions. But that's not all! The prince's love for animals led him to the world's only swimming elephant, Rajan. For this, the guy went to India. And upon request, the elephant was delivered to his arrival.

As for the means of transportation, needless to say, the prince can afford any of them. But still, four-hoofed animals attract him more, and therefore Hamdan limits himself to one plane, one yacht and a small fleet of vehicles in the garage.

Fell in love with a refugee

Very little is known about the prince’s personal life. Maybe because relationships with women in the UAE are talked about only in whispers.

The prince himself, answering questions about his marriage, said that since childhood he had been engaged to a maternal relative, Sheikha bin Thani bin Said al Maktoum. And this decision was made for him when he did not even go to school.

However, a couple of years ago he was in close contact with another relative, whose name is unknown. The relationship ended in 2013, and along with it, the arranged marriage was called off. One can only guess about the reasons; they were not announced...

However, already in the summer of 2014, the prince met new love. Hamdan fell in love with a certain Kalila Said. Unlike Hamdan's past brides, the girl was not from a noble family. By contrast, 23-year-old Kalila is a Palestinian refugee who grew up in the slums of an Arab metropolis.

The young people met while working at charity project in one of the disadvantaged areas of the capital. And it seems that the prince was even more pleased with the acquaintance than Kalila. Fazza had to woo the girl for three months before she agreed to go on a date with him.

Rumor has it that the sheikh was dissatisfied with his son’s choice and even threatened to deprive him of his inheritance. But, having seen the feelings of the young people, he nevertheless changed his anger to mercy...

But don't be upset! Firstly, the prince never married. And secondly, in Arab country A sheikh can have as many wives as his heart desires.

Some consider him handsome and an athlete, and some consider him crazy. After watching one video from his Instagram, I was very surprised - how can the heir risk himself like that? However, he does this all the time.

He is only one of thirteen children and not the oldest, but in early February 2008 he was announced as the Prince of Dubai. His name is Hamdan ibn Mohammed Al Maktoum. Athlete, poet and just an extreme sports enthusiast. He has 4.6 million subscribers on Instagram. Some consider him a darling of fate, and some envy him.

In general, I became interested in his personality after flying on such a device. It's called "Jetman" and is the brainchild of a Swiss pilot-inventor.

Here's a video of Hamdan flying around the city on a jet wing.

Today he is 34 years old and he definitely has a fun life. He has official positions such as Chairman of the Dubai City Executive Council, Head of hedge fund HN Capital LLP, President newest university named after him - Hamdan Bin Mohammed Smart University.

The prince has many hobbies. It's enough for everything at once. If you look at his photos, you can see that he loves to skydive, hunt with a falcon and even dive with a speargun. He has exotic animals at home. In the photo you can see white tigers, lions and camels. He is also a horse breeder and owns breeding stallions that often win races.

Quadcopter and sports car racing.

It seems that extreme sports is his main hobby.

Luxury is only a small part of his life. Hamdan travels constantly and sometimes on his yacht. Stops at the most best hotels and ends up in the most colorful places on the planet.

His passion for photography attracts a huge audience.

Everything you need for a good photo:
- Good topic
- Good lens
- And a little patience

With friends

The prince is incredibly rich, and still does not have a wife. In general all aspects privacy royal family are hidden from the general public.

On falconry.

The prince's favorite brand is Mercedes-Benz G-Class

In such a car he moves across the sands

Hamdan himself is well educated, because... studied first at the Dubai Government School, and later in the UK at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst.

However, he constantly participates in charity events and tries to help those in need.
He sponsors hospitals and helps disabled people and sick children.

Guest

In addition to beautiful cars, the prince also prefers to ride horses.

This is probably one of the most popular photos.

In training

There are a lot of photographs from spearfishing.

These are a little clumsy, but translations :)

The color and smell of your hair,
The sweetness of lips, the tenderness of graceful hands
I didn’t write it in poetry, I carried it in my soul
All times past and present...
Even future ones! Hearts beating
The sparkle of bottomless green eyes -
This is my life! The circle is closed
Where are we together in sleepless nights,
Enchanted by beauty
We enter the shadow along the lunar path...
Like death, separation from you.
Without you I'm a little different
A gloomy day without you, my light,
The night is dark and the moon is unable to
Light it up. In the world there is no
Better than the one I called cute.

This tired traveler sat down to rest
And he suddenly said thoughtfully: “Prisoner
You are your passions... How will you continue your path,
If your flesh and soul are perishable?
And I thought - as if I had accepted a reproach...
How high I used to fly!
I have become different now, I have changed since then -
I drank the water of truth from the source.
I frayed the horse's bridle on the roads,
Destroyed all the castles in the air,
I learned to forgive, and they forgave me,
I saved to save my soul...
How beautiful this precious day is,
He rejoices like a thunderstorm at sea!
Each one is dear, like a priceless stone,
He looks into the soul, squinting his eyes...
He grins - are you waiting for the end?
The day has come, the heat and wind reign,
The night of love is like a sheep to the slaughter,
He is in no hurry to let him land.
Only the evening will rush invisibly,
And the sun goes down into sunset,
Horses of Time on a Chariot
The night is coming - there is no turning back!
How painful is the moment of waiting...
Day and night, morning and evening, as of old,
I can't stand the night's breathing
And I’ll tear off the calendar again.
The night is priceless! Like the day, endless
The light of the moon, the marvelous stars of the carnival.
Life is long and, alas, fleeting...
Happy is the one who knows all this!
