Her Majesty Queen Rania of Jordan has finally shared the much-anticipated first photos of her daughter’s twin daughters, Talia and Rania.
The Jordanian queen, who is famously known for sharing some of her most precious family moments with the public on social media, gave the royal family fans a first glimpse of the family meeting their newest additions.
In the heartwarming photos, Talia and Rania are seen being lovingly held by their grandparents, their Majesties King Abdullah II and Queen Rania of Jordan, while their aunt, Princess Salma, beams as she cradles one of her nieces. Prince Hashem also looks delighted as he meets his new nieces for the first time.
Queen Rania accompanied the photos with the sweetest caption, expressing the family’s joy at finally meeting the newborn twins. She wrote on Instagram: “Healthy, happy, and finally here. We’ve been waiting so long to meet you, Talia and Rania ♥️♥️… Congratulations Iman, Jameel, and sweet big sister Amina!”
Her Royal Highness Princess Iman, the daughter of Their Majesties King Abdullah II and Queen Rania of Jordan, has welcomed twin girls with her husband, Jameel Alexander Thermiotis last Friday.
On Saturday, Queen Rania Al Abdullah shared the twins’ names, delighting royal fans around the world. The parents honoured Queen Rania by naming one of the twins Rania, while their second daughter was given the name Talia, a first for the Jordanian Royal Family.
The Royal Hashemite Court announced the happy news in a statement on Friday, August 14, confirming that the couple had welcomed twin daughters.
The Royal Hashemite Court is pleased to announce that Her Royal Highness Princess Iman bint Abdullah II and Mr Jameel Alexander Thermiotis were blessed with twin baby girls on Friday, 14 August 2026,” the Court announced.
The Royal Hashemite Court congratulated Princess Iman and Jameel on the birth of their daughters and extended its congratulations and best wishes to King Abdullah, Queen Rania and Crown Prince Al Hussein on the happy occasion.
The arrival of the babies comes just a little over a month after Queen Rania revealed that her daughter was expecting again via Instagram.
On July 9, the Queen shared a lovely family photo showing Princess Iman with her growing baby bump alongside her husband Jameel and daughter, little Amina. “The grandchildren club is growing, and we couldn’t be happier for Iman, Jameel and soon-to-be big sister Amina,” the queen shared.
Princess Iman is the second child and eldest daughter of King Abdullah and Queen Raina of Jordan. She married Jameel, US based businessman, on March 12, 2023, in a romantic ceremony in Amman, Jordan, and they welcomed their first child, daughter Amina, on Feb 16, 2025.
Twins Run in the Jordanian Royal Family…
While twins are rare in many royal families, that is certainly not the case for Jordan’s. The Jordanian royal family has a history of twins, with a set appearing in almost every generation. Jordan’s first queen, Queen Musbah, was herself a twin, while King Abdullah II’s younger sisters, Princesses Zain and Aisha, born in 1968, are also twins.
The tradition continues through the wider family. Princess Iman’s cousins, Princesses Aisha and Sara bint Faisal, born in 1997, are twins, while King Abdullah II’s cousin Prince Talal bin Muhammad and his wife, Princess Ghida Talal, welcomed twins in 2001 — Prince Muhammad and Princess Rajaa.
Now, with the arrival of Princess Iman’s twin daughters, the latest generation of the Jordanian royal family has welcomed another set of twins.
