After Princess Haya, Another Royal Wife From UAE Seeks Help

Sheikha Zeynab Javaldi took to social media to seek protection after her husband, the nephew of Sheikh Saeed bin Maktoum bin Rashid Al Maktoum, threatened to take off her three daughters.

In 2020, Javaldi published a live stream saying people linked to her powerful husband, a United Arab Emirates royal, were raiding her house. 

"They are taking my parents, now they will snatch my children," stated the Dubai sheikh's estranged wife in a series of posts.

Javaldi, the 29-year-old billionaire member of royal family, posted videos of the raid on Instagram and sought help against the alleged atrocity of her 43-year old husband Saeed bin Maktoum bin Rashid Al Maktoum.

She married the Sheikh in 2015 but the couple separated nine months ago after domicile violence. The couple has three children Sana, 4, Asiya, 3, and one-year-old Salama.

Javaldi's husband is the nephew of Sheikh Saeed bin Maktoum bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the current ruler of Dubai. Saeed Bin Maktoum had represented UAE in 2000, 2004, 2008 and 2012 Olympics in skeet shooting.

With so many medals to her credit, Javaldi is allegedly being persecuted since then. 

Her British lawyer affirmed that his client's life is in danger after the court ruled to give the kids to the father and his new wife.

In the video, Javaldi was seen shouting: "I can't give my children up to strangers. This is how they are dealing with me. There's no law." She also claimed physical and emotional abuse after separation.

"The manager of the Sheikh was doing all this stuff to me. No one tried to help me, they said "this is a Sheikh issue, we can't do anything," she was seen crying. "No, food, no water, no nothing. 

Persecuted for nine months. They will break my door and snatch my children," she said in the video explaining her condition.

It can be noted that Princess Haya, the former wife of the billionaire ruler of Dubai, Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al-Maktoum, had fled to London two years ago, along with her two children. She had claimed that her life was in danger. 

The High Court too ruled that she was the victim of attempted abduction, forced return, torture and a campaign of intimidation.
