His death comes about two decades after a devastating car crash in London left him in a coma. The prince, who was just 15 years old at the time of the accident in 2005, suffered a brain haemorrhage and internal bleeding.
He never regained full consciousness and had been on a ventilator ever since. His father, Prince Khaled bin Talal Al Saud, confirmed the passing in a post on X on Saturday. Prince Al-Waleed was a student at a military college in London at the time of the accident.
Prince Al Waheed is a great-grandson of King Abdulaziz or Ibn Saud, the founder and first monarch of Saudi Arabia. He is also the nephew of billionaire tycoon Al Waheed bin Talal Al Saud and the current regnant, King Salman, is his great uncle.
