Anna Chapman reportedly frequented the young royals' favourite nightclub and schemed her way into their social circle
Anna Chapman reportedly frequented the young royals' favourite nightclub and schemed her way into their social circle UK Security Service chiefs are probing an extraordinary link -- between glamorous Russian spy Anna Chapman and the royals.
Stunning redhead Anna was fixated with princes William and Harry and schemed her way into their social circle, the Sunday Mirror reported.
She frequented Boujis, the nightclub haunt of the two young royals -- where repeated concerns have been raised about their safety -- with the explicit intention of meeting them.
Now officials are investigating whether a security risk was posed by Anna (28), one of 11 alleged Kremlin spies arrested in the US.
The Russian diplomat'su00a0 daughter was one of a crowd of designer-clothes wearing women who went to the swanky West London nightclub to try to meet the princes, a close friend of hers told the paper.
And amid the clubs hedonistic parties, it will be virtually impossible for MI5 to rule out Chapman having met one or both of them, however fleetingly.

Any possibility that a Russian spy may have been in the company of princes Harry and William is extremely worrying, said a security source.
Keeping the princes fully protected in that kind of alcohol-fuelled, closed-in environment has always been a major headache.
Chapman was also a regular at a string of other royal haunts -- including nightclubs Movida and Tramp and Japanese restaurant Nobu.
