Prince Alwaleed releases “great Saudi Arabia” pictures, first images of billionaire in over a year

Kingdom Holding chairman Prince Alwaleed has released the first new set of pictures of himself for over a year, taken in the Saudi desert.

The four pictures show the Saudi royal looking extremely relaxed at what appears to be a desert campsite. The prince is surrounded by camels in two of the pictures.

The prince is enjoying a resurgence in business with Kingdom Holding’s technology assets showing a 31 percent return on investment in the past five years, according to the company’s website.

Alwaleed is also a significant investor in Twitter, which last night appeared to be back on track for a sale to Elon Musk.

After initially questioning the deal, he said to Musk on Twitter in April: “I believe you will be an excellent leader for @Twitter to propel & maximise its great potential….& I look forward to roll our ~$1.9bn in the “new” @Twitter and join you on this exciting journey”.
