    You did a wonderful job of finding these photos! However, you perhaps forgot or could not find photos on the King of Sikkim who married a Ms. Hope back in the 60’s, and King Hussein of Jordan who married another American woman.
    Also, Gen. Khin Nyunt’s son married a Singaporean, so Gen. KN should have been kicked out at that time instead of years later.
    The richest tycoon, Tayza, or someone, also is married to a Singaporean, too. He is not a govt. leader, but is very closely aligned with the govt.
    The Prince of Thailand is rumored to have 300 wives. Surely one of them is a foreigner.
    And one of the Princes, William or the other, of England is said to have dated an American girl.
