Princess Haya, the sixth wife of Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, is said to have "seduced" 37-year-old Russell Flowers before the pair had a two-year relationship.

The princess, 46, reportedly gave him a £50,000 vintage shotgun, a £12,000 watch and a personalised RU55ELLS number plate.

Their affair came to light during her High Court hearing against her 70-year-old estranged husband.

She eventually won custody of their two children and they currently live in an £85m home in Kensington, West London.

Flowers’ wife was “devastated” by the affair and it ended their four-year marriage, reports MailOnline.

His wife’s friends have now revealed how she found out about their secret relationship. A close pal told MailOnline: “Russell’s wife believed he was seduced by the money and gifts. She gave him lots of expensive gifts and made sure that he was always by her side.
