Paris – Saudi Princess Ameera Al-Taweel married billionaire and fellow countryman Khalifa bin Butti al-Muhairi in a secret and lavish Paris ceremony. Guest included Oprah Winfrey and Gayle King, who rubbed shoulders with the Saudi royalty and a number of UN employees who have worked with Princess Ameera in her many philanthropic efforts over the years.
The celebration came to a halt when an unidentified Saudi princess was robbed of just under $1 million worth of jewelry while staying at the Ritz over the wedding weekend.
That case is still being investigated, with the theft reported the Monday after the wedding - three days after the jewels went missing. The bride, 34, was previously married to Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal, a member of the Saudi royal family who was 28 years her senior.
