Celebrations unfolded in Brunei as Prince Abdul Mateen, the sixth son of King Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah, exchanged vows with Anisha Rosnah Isa-Kalebic. The festivities spanned a 10-day extravaganza from January 7 to 16, culminating in the main wedding ceremony at Sultan Umar Ali Saifuddin Mosque.
The romance between Prince Abdul Mateen and Anisha Rosnah Isa-Kalebic blossomed discreetly, with public appearances limited to the weddings of Princess Fatzila Bolkiah in 2022 and Princess Asema Nihmatul Bolkiah in 2023.
