Fahda bint Falah Al Hithlain (Arabic: فهدة بنت فلاح آل حثلين) is the third spouse of Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, the king of Saudi Arabia.[2] She is a member of the Ajman tribe.[1] Her ancestors include Ajman tribe leaders, Rakan and Dhaydan bin Hithlain.

Fahda has six children with King Salman: Mohammed, the crown prince of Saudi Arabia; Prince Khalid; Prince Turki; Prince Nayef; Prince Bandar; and Prince Rakan.[3] In 2018 several US media outlets, including NBC, reported that Fahda's eldest son, Mohammed, did not allow his mother to see King Salman.[4] She had not been involved in any public events between 2015 and 2020, but she reappeared at such events from March 2020.[5]
