Dubai, a city synonymous with luxury and grandeur, is home to many illustrious figures, but few capture the public’s imagination quite like Sheikha Mahra. Born on February 29, 1994, Sheikha Mahra bint Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum is the daughter of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the Vice President and Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates and the Ruler of Dubai, and Zoe Grigorakos, a Greek national.

Sheikha Mahra’s father, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, is a towering figure in the UAE. Known for his visionary leadership, he has transformed Dubai into a global hub for business, tourism, and innovation. His Highness is also a poet and an equestrian enthusiast, passions that he has passed down to his daughter.

Her mother, Zoe Grigorakos, brings a rich cultural heritage from Greece. This blend of Emirati and Greek influences has shaped Sheikha Mahra’s unique identity. Fluent in both Arabic and Greek, Sheikha Mahra often speaks about her deep connection to her Greek roots, which she maintains through frequent visits to her mother’s homeland.

Sheikha Mahra’s educational journey is as impressive as her royal lineage. She completed her early education in Dubai before pursuing higher studies in London, where she earned a degree in International Relations. Her academic pursuits did not stop there; she also holds a degree from the Mohammed bin Rashid School of Government.

Sheikha Mahra is not just a royal by birth; she is a modern-day princess who embraces contemporary roles. She is an avid equestrian, often seen participating in horse riding events, a passion she shares with her father. Additionally, she is a fashion icon, frequently spotted in elegant attire that blends traditional Emirati styles with modern fashion trends.
