Rania Al-Yassin, now known as the Queen of Jordan, met Prince Abdullah bin Al-Hussein in January 1993 and in June of the same year the couple married. Together they have four children. Rania became Queen in March of 1999, a month after her husband inherited the throne.

Fitzpatrick specifically refers to a dress Queen Rania wore in 2017 for Independence Day which she calls 'genius.'
It also appears that Queen Rania is very detailed oriented and that even when she wears jeans she adds a little something.

The real best dressed royal
Erin Fitzgerald’s original TikTok in which she states that Queen Rania is the best dressed royal has been seen over 27,000 times and has collected hundreds of comments. In these, many disagreed with Fitzgerald and stated that the best dressed royal is none other than Sheikha Moza.
Wanting to please her audience Fitzgerald made another TikTok where she celebrates Sheikha Moza’s style. Fitzgerald starts by saying that Sheikha Moza is a big fan of European brands like Valentino and Chanel or even Jean-Paul Gauthier for a more daring approach.
