WELCOME TO

Dear Sheikh Zayn Al-Ahmar,

To ensure that your stay at the Chatsfield is as exclusive and private as possible, we will need to ask you a few questions of perhaps a delicate nature, to ensure that our private security team will be best placed to support you.

If you had to pick your most public scandalous moment, what would it be?

I don’t like to talk about it as it centers around a death in my family.

Was there an even more scandalous event that didn’t make it into the press?

There were quite a few wild parties in my younger years...

What is your biggest secret?

If I told you it wouldn’t be a secret. And I would have to have you killed. I am not joking. I never joke.

What do you love most about Sophie?

She sees me. Not just the sheikh, but the man.

What were your first thoughts when you saw you Sophie?

That I had to kidnap her to minimize the damage she might do to my family. As meetings go, it was not the most romantic.

If your house was on fire and you could only save one thing, what would it be?

Sophie, of course.

What is the naughtiest thing you did at school?

I did whatever I wanted then. There were too many misdeeds to ever count them all.

What is your guiltiest pleasure?

Crime novels.

What is your worst habit?

Sophie says I am entirely too serious sometimes.

What is your favourite film?

The Avengers. In 3D, which I watch in my private theatre. Tony Stark amuses me.

What present would you put beneath the Christmas tree for Sophie?

I bought her a car. It did not fit beneath the tree. Next year we shall acquire a larger tree.

How will you spend your first anniversary as a couple?

Sophie was denied the luxurious things in life for far too long. I intend to take her a private island for a week of pampering.

Thank you for your candour. We will endeavour to ensure a scandal free time during your stay with us!
