A Royal Union in Exile: The Love Story of Iman Pahlavi and Bradley Sherman

The wedding’s venue—just steps from the Arc de Triomphe in Paris—added an additional layer of meaning. France has long served as a haven for Iranian exiles and intellectuals, and the Pahlavi family has deep ties to the country. Hosting the celebration in such a setting offered a sense of continuity with their past, while also suggesting a future rooted in shared values and cross-cultural appreciation.
