Princess Reema bint Bandar Al Saud to be ambassador to the United States.

Princess Reema currently works with the Saudi General Sports Authority and has worked to promote women in sports in the kingdom through initiatives focused on inclusion and encouraging more active lifestyles. She worked with the Ministry of Education to ensure physical education for girls in schools and championed a gender integrated team to the Special Olympics. She also worked in the private sector -- as CEO at Harvey Nichols Riyad and co-founder of Yibreen, a series of day spas in Riyad.

The Saudi royal has also actively praised Prince bin Salman for pushing for reform in the country. In 2018, she commended the Saudi government for lifting the ban on women driving and allowing women to enter sport stadiums.
