In a touching display of motherhood, Sheikha Mehira, the Dubai princess who recently made headlines with her dramatic divorce announcement, has returned to social media.
Just weeks after her divorce post went viral, she shared a poignant photo on Instagram featuring herself and her two-month-old daughter.
The image captures the royal mother cradling her infant while they both gaze at a picture of a white horse, accompanied by a simple yet heartfelt caption adorned with a white heart emoji.
Sheikha Mehira’s journey took a significant turn when she married Sheikh Mana in May 2023.
Their union was celebrated with a lavish reception in June, marking the beginning of their life together as a couple.
However, the joy of welcoming their first child—a daughter—was soon overshadowed by the unexpected announcement of their separation just two months later.
On July 16, the princess took to Instagram to publicly declare her divorce in a bold and unconventional manner.
In a stark message displayed in white text against a black background, she wrote, “Dear husband, as you are busy with other partners, I hereby announce my divorce.” The message continued with a powerful repetition: “I divorce you, I divorce you, and I divorce you,” concluding with a poignant farewell, “Take care, your ex-wife.”
This striking announcement appeared to reference the Islamic practice of triple talaq, which permits a husband to initiate divorce by repeating the phrase “I divorce you” three times.
The implications of such a public declaration have sparked discussions about personal agency and the complexities of marital relationships within royal circles.
Earlier this year, on May 9, Sheikha Mehira proudly revealed the birth of her son, sharing a touching black-and-white photo of his tiny hand.
