Many have flooded the comments section to share their support as well as their confusion, noting Sheikha Mahra only married her husband last May. 

“You deserve the best darling,” one said. 

“Beautiful Arab women deserve respect and love,” another added. 

As someone else declared: “I find it empowering when a woman recognises her worth and confidently stands her ground.”

Under UAE law, a Muslim male may have four wives, provided he offers equal sustenance and equal treatment to all.

Sheikha Mahra is the daughter of Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the ruler of Dubai and the prime minister of the UAE, making him the head of his nation’s government. 

The sheikha graduated from a London university in 2023.

She’s also an outspoken advocate for women’s rights.
