Queen Rania and her husband, King Abdullah II, are celebrating their wedding anniversary on June 10. On the special day, Rania took to Instagram to share a loving note to her husband of 28 years.

"Happy anniversary to the one dearest to my heart," she said in the sweet post, writing in Arabic and English.

The 50-year-old shared a photo of herself with Abdullah to mark the occasion. The portrait shows the couple posing together and gazing at the camera. The incredibly stylish Jordanian Queen is clad in a silky deep red dress with tie neckline and her husband is in a navy button-down. They are posed in front of an orange and blue background.

It's a different version of the family portrait Rania shared for the 2020 holiday season. That image featured the couple and their children: Crown Prince Hussein, 26, Princess Iman, 24, Princess Salma, 20, and Prince Hashem, 16.

Rania and Abdullah have made a few appearances this year. On March 30, the Jordanian royals stepped out to admire the awe-inspiring handicrafts from those involved in Jordan's Productive Youth Program.

Rania and Abdullah wed on June 10, 1993. He was a prince at the time. Their wedding was a national holiday, and the ceremony took place at the Royal Palace in Amman.

The always fashionable Rania wowed in a beautiful bespoke gown designed by Bruce Oldfield. The stunning wedding dress featured a full ballgown skirt and a collared jacket with short sleeves. The ivory fabric was trimmed in a white and gold lace motif along the hemlines. The 28-year-old bride wore her hair up in a bun with a veil.

The couple welcomed their first child, Hussein, in June 1994, followed by daughter Iman in September 1996, daughter Salma in September 2000 and finally son Hashem in January 2005.
