5 Awesome Facts About Princess Reema That Are A Reminder Of What An Inspiration She Is
Princess Reema Bint Al Badar is nothing short of just incredible – and she recently gave everybody just all the more reasons to look up to her as an inspiration.
She has just been appointed as the new (and first female) ambassador to the US
Here are five things everybody must know about her.
1. Princess Reema Bint Bandar is daughter of Bandar bin Sultan Al Saud, the grandson of Ibn Saud (the founder of modern day Saudi Arabia, as we all know)
2. The princess lived most of her life in the United States but moved back to Saudi Arabia in 2006 at the age of 28
