Today is HH Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed Al Maktoum‘s birthday. Fazza, as he’s affectionately known as by his 6.6 million Instagram followers, turned 36 on November 14.
To mark his birthday, the royal’s sisters took to their official social media accounts to celebrate his special day. His younger sibling, HH Shaikha Maryam bint Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum shared a candid, throwback image of a young Hamdan wearing a navy kandoura and crouched in front of a bush of red and pink flowers. “Happy birthdaaaaaaay Hamdan ♥️♥️♥️ i hope that all your dreams come true 😘 May you always live your life to the fullest 🙌🏼 I love you 💕 كل عام وانت بخير” she captioned the image.
Sheikha Shaikha also took to her Instagram account to share an adorable baby picture of the Crown Prince of Dubai. The image features Fazza as a toddler, resting his head against a sofa while looking at the camera and smiling. She simply captioned the image, “I❤️U!” followed by the date he was born.
Posting a heartfelt message of her own was his Sheikha Maitha. The equestrian posted a sweet picture of herself and Fazza when they were kids on her Instagram Stories, writing “Happiest birthday bro, may you always be happy and healthy. May this year bring you your hearts desires.”
Uploading a more current image of the newly-minted 36-year-old was his younger sister Sheikha Futaim bint Mohammed Al Maktoum. The 24-year-old posted a heart-warming photo of the animal lover cozying up to his new baby pony, Joy (the name was selected via an Instagram poll, where he urged UAE residents to help him choose a name for the adorable creature), simply captioning the image “14/11/2018” alongside the birthday cake and red heart emojis.
Meanwhile, Manal bint Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, who celebrated her birthday only two days before Sheikh Hamdan, went on to share a touching message of her own. The President of Dubai Women Establishment posted a portrait of her brother, simply wishing him a happy birthday in Arabic.
