King Abdullah's eldest son Crown Prince Hussein, 28, is marrying Rajwa Al Saif, 29, the youngest daughter of Saudi businessman Khaled Al Saif.

The couple's Islamic marriage ceremony known as a "katb ktab" is being conducted at at Zahran Palace.

Around 140 guests will be in attendance, including the Prince and Princess of Wales and First Lady Jill Biden.

Prince William and Kate's attendance was confirmed by Jordanian state media just hours before the wedding was due to take place.

He obtained a degree in International History at Georgetown University in 2016, and graduated from the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst in a year later.

His wife-to-be graduated with a degree in architecture from New York's Syracuse University in New York.
