Jordan’s Royal Court says media reports about king’s properties abroad ‘exaggerated’ – The National

Jordan's Royal Hashemite Court said on Monday that King Abdullah II owns several properties in the West and that he "personally funded" their purchase.

“The cost of these properties and all related expenditures have been personally funded by His Majesty,” the Royal Court said.

The statement came in response to reports in The Washington Post and other international media that the monarch had spent more than $106 million buying real estate in the US and the UK between 2003 and 2017.
