For the sake of her daughters, she decided that it was time for a woman in her position to speak out about the reality of life for women in her country, whatever their rank. 'Sultana' is a member of the Saudi royal family, closely related to the King. Hidden behind the veil, she is a prisoner, her jailers her father, her husband, her sons. She has no freedom, no vote, no control over her own life, no value but as a bearer of sons. But in reality she lives in a gilded cage. She has gold, palaces, swimming-pools, servants, designer dresses galore. Think of a Saudi Arabian princess and what do you see? A woman glittering with jewels, living a life of unbelievable luxury. You must know me only as Sultana, for I cannot reveal my true name for fear that harm will come to me and my family for what I am about to tell you. In a land where Kings still rule, I am a Princess.
