Princess Haya Bint Al Hussein ran into the arms of her hunky bodyguard as her marriage to Dubai's billionaire ruler Sheikh Mohamed al Maktoum collapsed.

The princess embarked on a two-year affair with her close protection officer Russell Flowers behind the sheikh's back, which sparked the couple's £4.5billion divorce.

Family Court judge Sir Andrew McFarlane said the princess began an adulterous affair with the infantry soldier in 2017 and that her husband had been aware of the 'inappropriate relationship' for some time.

In his damming judgement after a 10-month long court case, he said matters came to head in 2019 leading to Princess Haya becoming 'terrified for her life' and her husband divorcing her under Sharia Law.
