Crown Prince Hussein of Jordan and his wife Princess Rajwa are expecting their first baby this summer.
The couple - who got married in a prestigious wedding last June - will soon be parents, the royal household has revealed.
The happy occasion is also set make Queen Rania, 53, a grandmother and King Abdullah II bin Al-Hussein, 62, a grandfather, for the first time.
'The Royal Hashemite Court is pleased to announce that Their Royal Highnesses Prince Hussein bin Abdullah II, Crown Prince, and Princess Rajwa Al Hussein, are expecting, with God’s help and grace, their first child, in the summer of this year,' a statement on the website reads.
'And the Royal Hashemite Court, congratulating His Majesty King Abdullah II, son of Al Hussein, and Her Majesty Queen Rania Al Abdullah, on this occasion, to wish Their Royal Highnesses the good offspring a good health.'

The joyous announcement comes after Rajwa's tragic loss of her father in February - just months after she married into the Jordanian royal family.
Khaled bin Musaed bin Saif bin Abdulaziz Al Saif died at the age of 71.
In a heartfelt post on Instagram, Prince Hussein shared a picture of him embracing Khaled, who became his 'beloved' father-in-law after marrying Princess Rajwa last June.
'With profound sadness and sorrow, we bid farewell to my beloved father-in-law. We will always remember his kindness, generosity, and integrity. May God bestow mercy upon him and grant us patience and strength,' he wrote.
Hussein, 29, and high-flying architect Rajwa, 29, were married in June last year at Zahran Palace in Amman.
Following a short service, Abdullah II and Rania hosted a lavish reception at the Al Husseiniya Palace, which was attended by more than 1,700 guests - including the Prince and Princess of Wales.
Rajwa dazzled in a white gown by Lebanese designer Elie Saab, which featured a lengthy train embroidered with flowers, and a sparkling diamond tiara.
Abdullah II and Rania proudly watched as their son was wed during an Islamic ceremony known as a 'katb ktab' held in a gazebo and conducted by the Royal Hashemite Court Imam Dr Ahmed Al Khalaileh.

Kate Middleton, who lived in Jordan for a short period during her childhood, led the glamorous guests at the event in a blush pink lace dress also by Elie Saab. Princess Beatrice wore a silver sequined gown from British label Needle & Thread for the occasion.
Rajwa was educated in Saudi Arabia before then moving to the US for university.
While living in New York, she studied Architecture at Syracuse University - obtaining her Bachelor of Arts.
During her undergraduate degree, Rajwa flew to Dubai with her class to study the city's sustainable developments.
Following her graduation, she then went on to study Visual Communications at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in Los Angeles - where reality star Lauren Conrad and fashion designer Monique Lhuillier also studied.

She then went on to work at an architecture firm in Los Angeles and was employed by Designlab Experience design studio in Riyadh last year.
Along with her passion for horseback riding, Rajwa also has a creative streak - and is said to enjoy drawing and making art in her spare time.
Despite Hussein's public profile, the couple largely kept their relationship out of the spotlight to begin with.
The Crown Prince announced his engagement to Rajwa in August 2022 - after the heir to the throne proposed at his future wife's home in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
The future King of Jordan picked a show-stopping pear-shaped diamond set on a pave band to propose with.
At the time, Hussein confirmed that both his and Rajwa's families were present for the special moment.
