Who is Prince Moulay Hicham of Morocco?

Prince Moulay Hicham of Morocco is the first cousin of the current King Mohammed VI and Prince Moulay Rachid. He is the son of Prince Moulay Abdallah of Morocco, the late brother of former king Hassan II, and Princess Lalla Lamia as-Solh, daughter of Riad Al Solh, the first Prime minister of Lebanon. He is also the cousin of Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal of Saudi Arabia, whose mother is another daughter of Al Solh. Under the Moroccan constitution, Moulay Hicham stands third in the line of succession to the Alaouite throne.
