Crown Prince Hussein is enjoying the early weeks of fatherhood with his and Princess Rajwa's newborn daughter, Princess Iman.

The future Jordanian King, 30, posted an adorable photograph of himself enjoying a cuddle with his little one.

Princess Iman, who arrived on 3 August, was dressed in a pink giraffe-print sleepsuit as she snuggled into her father's shoulder, with Hussein sweetly gazing at his daughter.

Part of the caption in Arabic translated to: "The best morning before work" before Hussein added: "With my precious one."

The Crown Prince, who serves as a major in the Jordanian army, was dressed in his military uniform.

The royal and his daughter were pictured in a beautifully decorated bedroom, with a patterned rug and neutral-coloured furnishings, including a toy box with a stuffed unicorn peeking over the top.

It comes just days after Hussein's mother Queen Rania shared an image of her and her husband, King Abdullah, spending time with their first grandchild.

Little Iman slept soundly in her grandmother's arms as the King and Queen relaxed in their living room.

"So much cuteness in my arms," Rania wrote in the caption.

Hussein and Rajwa married on 1 June 2023 with royal guests from monarchies all over the world in attendance – including the Prince and Princess of Wales.

The Royal Hashemite Court first announced that the couple were expecting their first child back in April, coinciding with Rajwa's 30th birthday.

Despite her status as the firstborn child of the heir to the throne, Princess Iman is not in the line of succession to the Jordanian throne, with only male heirs entitled to be included.

King Abdullah and Queen Rania are also parents to Princess Iman, who married Jameel Alexander Thermiótis in March 2023, as well as Princess Salma and Prince Hashem.
