Her Highness Sheikha Mahra bint Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum is known for sharing various snippets of her life on Instagram.

From her wedding to new husband His Highness Sheikh Mana bin Mohammed bin Rashid bin Mana Al Maktoum to her various sartorial choices to her philanthropic ventures, it’s safe to say the daughter of the Dubai Ruler is a fan of social media.

The 30-year-old sheikha is also attune to sharing snippets from spending time with her mother, Zoe Grigorakos, with whom she has a very close relationship. And just as the phrase “like mother, like daughter” goes, this rings true for the duo, looking almost like sisters.

This mother-daughter duo is often seen enjoying holidays, supporting charitable causes or even just spending quality time together. Their treasured relationship is captured through their photos together.

To mark Mother’s Day in the UAE, GRAZIA highlights just a few of the best mother-daughter moments this pair have shared.

Milestone Graduation

Earlier this year, Sheikha Mahra graduated with a degree in international relations from London. Her mother was by her side to support her daughter for the milestone occasion. Sharing a series of photos on Instagram, Her Highness captioned the post: “Family support is everything.”

Exploring Dubai

Sheikha Mahra is known to explore different parts of Dubai. Back in January of this year, the sheikha and her mother visited Dubai Miracle Gardens, a must-visit spot for many visitors in the emirate.

A Mother-Daughter Royal Wedding Moment

Sheikha Mahra and Sheikh Mana wed earlier this year. The ceremony took place at Saeed Hall, Dubai World Trade Centre. And, of course, her mother was there on her big day. Her Highness shared a series of photographs following the elaborate wedding, one post of which was dedicated to her mother on Instagram. “My everything ❤️ Mum ❤️,” she captioned the post.
