Biography

Prince Hamoud was born in 1947.[2][3] He was the only child of Fatima Al Yamania, a concubine hailing from Yemen, and King Abdulaziz.[4] He was the youngest living son of King Abdulaziz for all 47 years of his life: from his birth in 1947 until the birth of his half-brother Jiluwi in 1952, and again from his brother's death that year until his death in 1994.[5]

He was a businessman with a trade company named Gada Marketing and Trading based in Jeddah, established in 1978.[6] He had one daughter, Princess Gada. Prince Hamoud died at age 47 on 25 February 1994.[2] Some sources say he died in Saudi Arabia while talking with King Fahd.
