Jordan's much-loved Queen Noor has been talking candidly about her life with King Hussein and the challenges she has faced since he passed away. The glamorous royal, who is currently in the US promoting the paperback edition of her autobiography, told CNN presenter Larry King that helping others was the source of both her happiness and her beauty.
When the veteran interviewer asked how she managed to maintain her age-defying good looks, the 53-year-old said a meaningful life, rather than fancy creams or diets, was the secret. "I try to keep healthy, but whatever I have about me is probably the result of trying to work from my heart, true to my conscience and to focus my efforts outside myself," she explained. "There is a glow about people who live for something bigger than themselves."
King Hussein's widow, who is still single six years after her husband's death, also affirmed that she wasn't looking for anyone new. "I have great friends, men and women, but there's been no romantic magic since my husband," she confessed. "There was a real magic with King Hussein, for all the ups and downs of our lives, that was pretty unique and special. You don't look for that – it finds you."
Asked if she had any message for Britain's royal newlyweds, Noor expressed her hopes for Charles and Camilla's marriage: "I wish them all the happiness in the world. It can be rare and fleeting and I pray that they will know it." |
