The costly row between the billionaire ruler of Dubai, Sheik Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, and Jordan-born Princess Haya Bint Al Hussein, is taking place in London. Sheik Mohammed, who turned 70 in July, is the vice president and prime minister of the United Arab Emirates and ruler of Dubai. At that hearing, Sir Andrew allowed the media to report that Princess Haya has applied for a non-molestation order. Princess Haya and Sheik Mohammed - who married in 2004 - had issued a statement confirming they are parties to proceedings before the court following an earlier private hearing. Oxford educated Princess Haya Al Hussein fled the country with her children after the break up of her marriage with billionaire Sheik Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum.
