Jordan
The Jordanian royal family will be celebrating the New Year in style as the heir to the throne Al Hussein Bin Abdullah II starts 2018 as a Commissioned Officer. His Royal Highness graduated earlier this year at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst's Sovereign's Parade — and to celebrate the special occasion, the family has broken tradition.
The Hashmite New Year card, which was sent to HOLA!'s sister brand HELLO!, shows three Royals as Military Academy of Sandhurst graduates: the late King Hussein bin Talal (1952), the actual King Abdullah II (1981) and the Crown Prince Al Hussein Bin Abdullah II (2017). It is the first time in years that the New Year's card does not show the royal family, with Queen Rania and her other daughters and son.
