I managed to snap a photo with HRH Princess Basma Bint Talal today. It was a fleeting moment, a quick exchange, but something about it felt…real. Beyond the formality, there was a warmth, a genuine kindness that shone through. We spoke briefly, and her presence was just that – a gem. There’s a certain weight to meeting someone who carries so much history, so much legacy, yet she held herself with such unassuming grace. It’s those small, unscripted moments that stick with you.
