Brunei: Sultan’s daughter married her first cousin

THE sultan of Brunei Hassanal Bolkiah got married her daughter of Azema, except that the groom is not someone unknown to the family, since he is her first cousin.

Specifically, he is Prince Bahar ibni Geoffrey Bolkiah, son of the Sultan’s brother, Prince Geoffrey Bolkiah.

As stated by dailymail.co.ukthe engagement was announced by the palace on December 31 and on January 16, the wedding celebrations began.

In fact, it was allowed, because in Brunei the laws of incest do not apply.

So the groom recited his vows in front of a group of men, including the Sultan of Brunei, who was his daughter’s representative at the wedding.
