Jordan's Queen Rania, whose pregnancy was just revealed one month ago, was clearly showing a blossoming bump as she attended an Amman event in aid of disabled youngsters on Thursday.

Dressed discreetly in black trousers and a matching top fitted loosely over her changing figure, Rania showed no sign of slowing down as she met dozens of kids at the al-Hussein Society for the Rehabilitation of the Physically Challenged.

The 32-year-old royal, famously committed to children's causes, helped present more than 1,680 much-needed wheelchairs to the centre. Sponsored in part by American non-profit organisation The Wheelchair Foundation, the ambitious initiative aims to provide at least 12,000 wheelchairs to needy children across Jordan.
