INSIDE THE DUBAI ROYAL FAMILY: Where are the missing Princesses?

Divorces are often messy and costly affairs, but nothing compares to the one that currently entangles the royal family of Dubai. The Emirates’ ruler, Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al-Maktoum, is pitted against his ex-wife, Princess Haya Bint Al-Hussain, who surprisingly at this point, holds the upper hand.

In this billion-dollar battle a judge has ruled the Princess’ claims that the all-powerful Sheikh intimidated her with guns and threatened her with imprisonment are true. Other accusations against Sheikh Mohammed are so outrageous they’re difficult to believe, but as Tom Steinfort has been reporting for two years now, this royal ruler has form.

Princess Haya bint al Hussein, the Dubai ruler’s sixth wife fled with her two children Zayed and Al Jalila with $56 million dollars in a private jet and sought asylum in the UK. She allegedly said that her husband planned to marry her twelve-year-old daughter to the crown prince of Saudi Arabia Mohammed Bin Salman.
