The eldest child of Karim Aga Khan (Aga Khan IV) and once tipped as "The Next Aga Khan", Zahra fell out of favor for the coveted position after Aly Muhammad Khan had been groomed for his role as Aga Khan V throughout his teens. Aly Muhammad Khan's mother Gabrielle (or Inaara) filed for divorce against Karim Aga Khan, and won a multi-million dollar divorce settlement after Karim Aga Khan was found guilty of adultery by a court.
Even today, Zahra however remains at the forefront of virtually all of Aga Khan's "philanthropic" business ventures. She was married to a Christian named Mark Boyden from 1997 – 2005, who you can see in the pictures below.
