The newly crowned King Abdullah II soon elevated his wife to queen. In 1999, from his deathbed, King Hussein bin Talal unexpectedly named Prince Abdullah as his successor, rather than the king's brother, who had been expected to take the throne. As if that wasn't a dizzying enough turn of events, an unexpected bit of palace intrigue would soon cast an even bigger spotlight on the couple. Within two months of their first chance meeting, they were engaged, and they married soon after that. When an Apple coworker invited her to a party hosted by the sister of then-Prince Abdullah of Jordan, she and the prince fell for each other hard. It was her gig at Apple that unexpectedly spun Rania into the royal orbit.
