I watched a movie tonight about a princess from Bahrain who married a marine when she came to this country.I saw her on a talk show several years ago and she was still married and said her family and government had put a hit out on her.Does anyone know what happened to her??

1. Did you try googling?

Apparently the marriage lasted 5 years.

2. Ahh, "The Princess and the Marine"

Was that on Lifetime? }(

Here's the only article I could find, but it's from December 2005.

Runaway Princess and Marine Love Story Fails!

That article says she's seeing a wealthy L.A. businessman, but I could have sworn that I read she returned to Bahrain; that the marraige didn't work out due to homesickness and cultural issues...

ON EDIT: Wikipedia Rules!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meriam_Al-Khalifa

"In 2004 Meriam returned to Bahrain where she received a royal pardon and was forgiven by her family. However, she no longer maintains the title of Sheika. There has been little press surrounding the former princess after her return to her home country, but it is widely presumed that she is safe and faces no threat of harm or maltreatment."
