Iman Pahlavi to marry American

September 15, 2023

Iman Pahlavi, 29, the middle daughter of Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi, is engaged to be married.

      Iman’s mother, Yasmine Pahlavi, shared the news on Instagram August 7, along with pictures from the beachside proposal. Iman and her fiance, Bradley Sherman, have been dating for three years, Yasmine said.

      “Our sweet Iman got engaged this weekend. We’ve watched their relationship blossom and are so happy that they have made a commitment to share their lives together,” she said.

      A European news report said they met in 2017 and moved in together during the coronavirus epidemic.

      Reza Pahlavi, the heir apparent to the throne, is a trained fighter pilot and attended university in the US, where he has lived in exile ever since the revolution.  He married Yasmine, a lawyer, in 1986.

      Iman, who is the first of the three Pahlavi sisters to get engaged, works in New York in finance for American Express, while her fiance is a brand manager for an e-commerce start-up, according to Vanity Fair Spain. The couple lives in New York City.  He is originally from Chicago.  She was reared in Washington, DC.

      While Iman’s social media account is set to private, older sister Noor, 31, has a public profile. “[Bradley Sherman] was already family, but this weekend he made it official. So happy for you both! Love you!” Noor posted on Instagram.

            Younger sister Farah, 19, also shared pictures, captioning them: “Big sister is getting married. Love you!!!!!”
