Brunei's Prince Abdul Mateen and Anisha Isa
Kalebic opened the royal wedding season in 2024. Until now, the children of the Sultan of Brunei
have been married to members of noble royal bloodlines. But Prince Abdul Matin decided to marry a
girl from outside the royal family and his father gave his consent for the marriage. Why did the sultan make an exception? Who did Anisha have an affair with before
meeting the prince? Who are her parents and why did they divorce? And a few more facts about the prince's wife
that you definitely didn't know! Watch the video till the end to find out all
this! Let’s get started! Prince Abdul Mateen was born in 1991 to the
second wife of Sultan of Brunei Hassanal Bolkiah named Mariam Aziz. He is the fourth son of the monarch, so he
is not a crown prince. Nevertheless, the prince chose an education
related to political administration. He received two degrees in London in international
politics and political science. Interestingly, before receiving his diplomas,
Abdul Mateen managed to become a professional military man. First, he served in the Brunei army, and then
entered the Royal Military Academy of England. He then took a break to study at universities. After that, he served in the British Air Force
and became an experienced military pilot. When the prince turned 30, he continued his
military education in England, at the training center of the famous British commandos, called
"Green Berets." Abdul Mateen's father, Sultan Bolkiah, was
so proud of his son that he personally presented him with a green beret. Behind the back of one of the most attractive
groomsmen of the planet not only dozens of parachute jumps and hand-to-hand combat skills. In 2022, the prince began a diplomatic career. He is Brunei's representative at trade negotiations
between the European Union and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations. Abdul Mateen is also a professional equestrian
polo player. The Brunei national team, which included the
prince, twice won bronze medals at the Asian Championships. Abdul Mateen was considered one of the best
players in the team and the coaches didn't do him any favors. Prince has repeatedly been recognized as one
of the most attractive suitors on the planet. But in love affairs, he has been remarkably
modest. This is especially surprising against the
background of love stories of his father, Sultan Bolkiah. Any mention of the prince's romantic adventures
is absent in the press. It seems that Abdul Mateen spent all his energy
until the age of 30 on his studies and military service. But in the fall of 2023, millions of girls
dreaming of marrying a prince were in for a disappointment. Sultan Bolkiah announced the upcoming wedding
of his 32-year-old son Abdul Mateen. Who is she, the lucky chosen one who managed
to charm the unapproachable bachelor? Anisha Isa Kalebic is a well-educated Bruneian
girl from a noble family. She is the granddaughter of the influential
aristocrat Pehin Dato' Isa, who serves as a special advisor to the Sultan of Brunei. At one time he founded the country's largest
airline Royal Brunei Airlines and is its co-owner. Anisha inherited her attractive looks from
her parents. It is a mix of Asian and European blood. Her mother Mariam Isa is Bruneian and her
father Adam Kalebic is Croatian. Years ago, her parents went through a high-profile
and scandalous divorce that they could not keep behind closed doors. Anisha's mother claimed in court that her
husband had physically abused her during the 19 years of their marriage. For years, she has been demanding a divorce
but he has consistently denied her. Anisha has three siblings. Daniel, Marina and Adris. By the way, her brother Daniel is considered
a close friend of Prince Abdul Mateen. They share a common hobby of playing soccer. Anisha graduated from the prestigious University
of Bath in England around the same time as Abdul Mateen. She has a degree in economics and runs several
large companies. The girl owns a chain of fashion houses Silk
Collective and produces her own line of fashionable clothes. And Anisha, together with her best friend,
founded an international travel company Authentinerary. The prince's wife loves cooking and even keeps
an Instagram blog where she publishes her culinary masterpieces. It seems that her love for cooking was instilled
in her by her father Adam Kalebic, who is the owner of the Fratini restaurant chain. By the way, Anisha's own brother Daniel is
also involved in the restaurant business. He founded The Potato Habit franchise, a chain
of fast food restaurants. The guys were exposed to the catering industry
from childhood and gained invaluable practical knowledge. The story of how Anisha and Prince Abdul Mateen
met is known by heart all over Brunei. The fact is that the future bride and groom
met as children, as the family of Sultan Bolkiah and Anisha's grandfather were friendly. As teenagers, they often hung out together
at different parties. They were good friends and there was no serious
relationship between them then. On the web you can find pictures of Anisha
with her ex-boyfriend Dan Bowman, with whom Anisha had an affair at that time. They dated for many years, but then their
paths parted. Anisha had an Instagram account which she
deleted due to an influx of detractors. But the pictures with her ex-boyfriend managed
to go viral. The serious relationship between Anisha and
Abdul Mateen started in 2018 when the youngsters were studying in England. They often met each other as fellow countrymen
living in another country. Gradually, a real love emerged from friendship,
especially since the guy and the girl had common interests. Strangely enough, Anisha is seriously interested
in soccer, and Abdul Mateen also likes to chase the ball. Supposedly in 2020, the relationship between
the guy and the girl developed into a romantic encounter. In any case, it was from that time that they
began to be spotted together at social parties, where they acted like lovers. Many wondered whether the prince would marry
Anisha, because he appeared with her even at his sister's wedding. Finally, in 2023, the wedding of Prince Abdul
Mateen and Anisha Isa Kalebic was officially announced in Brunei. The Sultan of Brunei issued a royal decree
officially ordering the young people to play the wedding. Despite the fact that Anisha is not of royal
blood, the Sultan gave his consent to the marriage. Perhaps his special love for his youngest
son played a role. And the ruler of Brunei himself has twice
married girls of non-royal blood. All the more so because Abdul Mateen and Anisha's
relationship has been time-tested and the couple is considered almost perfect. The wedding was scheduled for January 2024,
and its scale is not inferior to the weddings of other children of the sultan. In the press, this wedding was named the royal
wedding of the year. The celebration lasts for 10 days and all
the traditions of the country are observed. First, Prince Abdul Mateen makes a "royal
proposal" to the bride, followed by the Akad Nikah ceremony - a solemn marriage according
to Bruneian customs. It will end with a lavish royal reception,
where the most noble aristocrats of the world have been invited. The wedding will culminate with a procession
led by the newlyweds through the capital of Brunei, Bandar Seri Begawan. It is expected that after the wedding, Anisha,
as the wife of the prince, will become engaged in charitable and diplomatic activities. It's possible that given her economic talents,
the lady will be entrusted with an important position in a ministry or a large state-owned
company. We wish that this beautiful couple will live
a long and happy life, without getting bogged down in palace intrigues and cheating! In the next video we will show the highlights
of this gorgeous wedding. Subscribe to our channel to not miss the most
