Daoud I

Daoud I (born 1970) is the current Khedive of Egypt. He is the son of Ismail III, who died in 2006 after a long illness. Although typically Egyptian in appearance, Daoud has blue eyes, believed to be the result of ancestors who were Scots. He is generally viewed as one of the most eligible young bachelors in the world.

For several years he functioned as his father's plenipotentiary in the government. A devout Sunni Muslim, Daoud is also a sophisticated man and world traveler. For example, he is friends with (and even dated) Nicola Vlas-Florea and will be attending the Catholic wedding of her cousin Nicolae Vladescu Vlas-Florea.
