He is married to Azza Bint Nayef Abdulaziz Ahmed Al-Sudairi, and has 4 children: Faisal, Nayef, Dana, and Princess Rajwa.

The origin of the Al Saif family goes back to the Subaie tribe, who are the sheikhs of the town of Al-Attar in Sudair, Najd, since the beginning of the reign of King Abdulaziz Al Saud.

The Sudair tribe is one of the largest tribes in several regions in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, as a group of them lived in Al-Attar, and the Princes of Al-Attar were from the Saif family, and the title of prince continued to be used until the past few years.

Princess Rajwa's father graduated from the American University of Beirut with a degree in civil engineering, where he founded the Al Saif Contracting Engineers Company, which is now one of the largest contracting companies in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, in addition to several companies in different sectors.
