    Queen Rania is clearly already a doting grandmother after her eldest son, Crown Prince Hussein and his wife Princess Rajwa , welcomed their first child .

    The heir to the Jordanian throne confirmed the birth of his daughter, Princess Iman, on Saturday, and in new photos she was clearly besotted with the new addition to the family. Rania was seen cradling her granddaughter as she introduced the tot to the other members of the family.

    In an image carousel shared on Instagram, Rania's husband, King Abdullah, was also seen meeting his first grandchild, while another featured Rania rocking the baby while still in hospital.

    Princess Salma was also seen holding her niece , who was wrapped up in a white floral baby grow, while Prince Hashem looked lovingly at the new addition to the family.

    Despite the birth, the line of succession to the Jordanian throne hasn't been changed. The Jordanian royal family operates under agnatic primogeniture rules, meaning that women are excluded from the throne and line of succession.
