Hamid Reza married three times and had four children. He first married Minou Dowlatshahi in Tehran in March 1951. Of this marriage he got a daughter: Niloufar Pahlavi (born 1953). In 1959 he married Homa Khameneh, by whom he had two children: Behzad Pahlavi (1957–1983) and Nazak Pahlavi (12 February 1958 – 27 December 1987). In 1974 Hamid Reza married Houri Khameneh, by whom he had one child: Ja'afar Pahlavi (born 1975). One of his sons, Behzad, lived in the United Kingdom for a while, but he was brought by Shah Mohammad Reza to Iran and attended the military school in Tehran. Due to his scandalous lifestyle, Hamid Reza's title of prince was removed and the Shah banned him from the court. In the 1960s he became known as a leading figure in opium trafficking business.
