The dating rumours surrounding Mahra and Montana aren’t new. They were spotted together last year, too. They were first linked in October 2024, right after her divorce from Sheikh Mana al Maktoum, a Dubai royal family member, was finalised in July 2024. This was just a month after she gave birth to her daughter. Although they haven't publicly confirmed their relationship, rumours suggest they have been romantically involved.
