Prince Al Waleed bin Khaled bin Talal, a member of the Saudi royal family, has died after spending 19 years in a coma. He was widely known as the “Sleeping Prince” because he had been unresponsive since a car accident in 2005.
The prince’s condition started after a serious car crash nearly two decades ago. Since then, he remained in a coma, receiving care in a hospital. He was the nephew of Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, one of Saudi Arabia’s richest and most well-known businessmen.
Over the years, many people in the Arab world saw Prince Al Waleed as a symbol of strong faith and hope. Despite his condition, his story touched many hearts, and his family never gave up praying for his recovery.
His death was confirmed on Saturday, and the family has announced that his funeral will take place on Sunday in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia’s capital city.
