Teenager Taj, who Ayan affectionately refers to as her "cookie," is following in his mother's footsteps. The teen — who shares the same birthday as Ayan — has already been featured in the pages of Vogue Arabia and can be seen looking absolutely dapper in amazing outfits on Ayan's Instagram page.

In the series premiere of Real Housewives of Dubai, Ayan and Taj, who the doting mother refers to as her "best friend," played a hand game that she picked up in Kenya. It's clear that these two have an adorable bond that fans are excited to see develop on the show.

"From the moment you were born, you became the sun to my planet," the reality star wrote on Instagram on July 8. "Love you cookie and happy us sharing birthdays for eternity."

Their mother-son bond is all the more touching for viewers who know that Ayan had a less-than-ideal relationship with her own father, whom she hasn't spoken to in over 25 years. "He beat me so bad that I ran away with my sister," she revealed on the show, adding that he wanted to marry her off when Ayan was only 14 years old.
