Britain's Prince Harry has reportedly given Cressida Bonas free-rein of Buckingham Palace.
The 30-year-old royal has been dating the blonde beauty for just over a year and has now decided to take their relationship to the next level by allowing her to enter the palace grounds without being searched.
A source told Grazia magazine: "Cressida has been staying with Harry pretty much every night for the last few weeks. So Harry felt it was sensible that she got the security clearance to come and go as she pleases, instead of always having to enter with him.
"She's now on first name terms with all the security guards, and uses all three entrances to the palace."
Sources claimed last year the pair's relationship was heading for the rocks following reports of Prince Harry planning to pop the question, but friends close to Cressida, 24, insist they're loved-up.
The friend explained: "Cressida had a wobble just after Christmas. The speculation about whether they would get married had become too much and she declined an invitation to Sandringham to join the royal family on a shoot. Instead she flew to Necker Island to be with her half-sister Isabella and brother-in-law Sam Branson.
"Cressy just needed breathing space. Harry has been brilliant and understands completely. The fact she has now been given free access to the palace is all a part of his plan to ease her into royal life and prove she can still have a normal life as his girlfriend. She hasn't fully moved in yet, but she stays most nights."

Niall Horan got trapped in a lift and had his crutches stolen at a BRITs after-party.
The One Direction hunk - who suffers from claustrophobia - was left in a panic when he got stuck in a cramped lift for the second time in three months at the Sony Belvedere bash, at Mayfair's Arts Club, in London on Wednesday night (19.02.14).
A source told The Sun newspaper: "Niall was with his security heading up to the party when the lift stalled for nearly five minutes.
"He was quite scared. One guy in the lift tried to film him and Niall asked his minders to ask him to delete the video."
The 20-year-old singer found himself in a similar situation last December when he suffered a panic attack after being caught inside a broken down lift in a hotel in Milan, Italy, along with a group of young adoring fans.
The Irish star recently turned to self-help books in a bid to help him combat his claustrophobia and panic attacks.
Meanwhile, Niall - who recently underwent an operation on his knee - was struck with even more bad luck at the party as someone swiped his crutches, but they were later handed back in to reception.
One Direction - consisting of Niall, Harry Styles, 20, Louis Tomlinson, 22, Zayn Malik, 21, and Liam Payne, 20 - triumphed at the award ceremony, held at London's O2 Arena, on Monday after picking up the Global Success title and accolade for Best Video, which was voted for by fans on the night.

Boy George claims he heard people doing drugs at the BRIT Awards on Wednesday (19.02.14).
The 52-year-old singer - who has suffered with heroin addiction in the past - has implied the ceremony, held at London's O2 Arena, was a cocaine-fuelled event as he insists there was a "chorus of snorting" from the toilets during the commercial breaks.
Taking to his Twitter account yesterday afternoon (20.02.14), he wrote: "As I took a leak at The Brit's I could hear a chorus of snorting! We have always called the Ad breaks 'the coke run'. It's still the case! (sic)".
Meanwhile, the Culture Club star caused a stir when he arrived at the glamorous event on Wednesday sporting a bloody bruise across his left eye, which looked like he had been involved in a punch-up.
However, George - whose real name is George Alan O'Dowd - admitted on the red carpet that it was actually make-up and he opted for the bizarre look as he is a "self-confessed fashion victim".
The eye make-up was branded "inappropriate" by critics, but George has since defended his theatrical taste.
He wrote: "Tasteless? Yet worth a whole lot of comment! ?? (sic)".

Madonna is still working out despite injuring her foot.
The 55-year-old singer bruised a bone while dancing in high heels last month but hasn't let it slow her down when it comes to keeping fit.
A source told New York Post's Page Six the pop superstar has been to SoulCycle in the city and the Hamptons because it's "one of the few workouts she can do while hurt".
Madonna led a class with her trainer, Nicole Winhoffer, at the opening of her Hard Candy studio in Toronto, and posted a photograph of herself exhausted after working out on Instagram.
It was accompanied by the caption: "Harder is Better! Post work out! Foot in the Ice Bath. A girl has to make a living! #hardcandytoronto #addictedtosweat. (sic)"
She appeared at the Grammys with a cane and was also photographed hobbling around Beverley Hills after a skiing holiday in January in Gstaad in Switzerland.
Her spokesperson said at the time: ''She bruised a bone in her foot from dancing in her high heels ... she'll be fine and off crutches in a week."
She's not the only star to have trouble in heels, as Kelly Osbourne has previously said she falls over a lot when she wears towering footwear.
She said: ''I'm double-jointed everywhere, I think that's why I'm so accident prone. Tight jeans and high heels equals one of my hips popping out and my face on the floor.''

Fergie and Josh Duhamel went to watch Britney Spears' Las Vegas residency.
The 38-year-old singer and her hunky actor husband went to see the 'Perfume' hitmaker at one of her shows at the Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino earlier this week, where they were joined by model Daniel Garofali, William Derella and Sean Patterson.
Fergie wrote on Twitter: "Ms Brit #youdrivemecrazy (sic)"
The Black Eyed Peas star also attached an image of the Britney who was on stage, wearing a black mesh leotard accesorised with sequins, with her hands on her hips while she was surrounded by dancers.
Fergie later added: "About last night... #britneyshow #workbitch (sic)", with a picture of her and her pals posing for the shot.
She's not been the only star to go and see Britney's 'Piece of Me' show.
Nicole Richie was "crawling on all fours" at the show on Tuesday night (18.02.14) and the pop star later thanked the 32-year-old beauty.
Britney wrote: "Can we all give a round of applause to @NicoleRichie for playing along in the show tonight? U looked hot crawling on all fours ;). (sic)"

Simon Cowell's newborn son has inherited his hair.
The media mogul welcomed his first child, with girlfriend Lauren Silverman, last week and friend, 'Strictly Come Dancing' judge Bruno Tonioli, has revealed the youngster has a thick head of black hair like his dad.
The 58-year-old dancing expert thinks the child - who was named Eric after Simon's father - will have such luscious locks that he could even land himself a role in a shampoo advert when he's older.
Bruno said: "That baby will not be follically challenged. It might even get a L'Oreal advert or two. Simon has great hair. In his 20s he had fantastic looks."
Bruno - who's been friends with 'The X Factor' judge for 30 years - hopes Simon won't influence his son's future haircuts, and make him get his infamous square style which is regularly mocked by his pals including comedian David Walliams and 'X Factor' USA judge Demi Lovato.
He told The Sun newspaper: "It's his haircut - he can't give that haircut to a child!"
Simon - whose hair has just started to grey - took Eric to a business meeting this week and the proud dad has been showing off his newborn to all his friends, family and colleagues.
A source said: "Baby Eric came along two weeks early so Simon still had meetings he was going to attend.
"As the birth went relatively smoothly, he decided to keep the appointments and asked Lauren to bring him along to him show off."

Miley Cyrus has hit back at critics who have called for her 'Bangerz Tour' to be cancelled.
The 21-year-old singer kicked off her raunchy world tour in Vancouver, Canada, last week and has come under fire for antics such as simulating a sex act on a man wearing a Bill Clinton mask, but Miley insists she gave fans a pre-warning her shows would be X-rated.
She wrote on Twitter yesterday (20.02.14): "You can't say I didn't warn you. Now sit back relax & enjoy the show. #bangerztour (sic)"
The tweet was accompanied by a picture of Miley on stage in a revealing outfit exposing her butt.
The 'Wrecking Ball' hitmaker then blasted her critics by telling them to "save" their outrage.
She quipped: "Save your complaints for the McDonalds drive thru when they forget the 'fries with that' (sic)"
Earlier this week, it was claimed the star's management has been "flooded" with complaints due to the salacious nature of the stage show.
A source said: "Miley's management have been flooded with complaints, mainly from parents, since her tour began last week in Canada with calls for the entire tour to be axed.
"Her team, including management, record label execs and the entire tour staff including the director, costume department and choreographers have been called for an emergency meeting as arenas across the US threaten to pull out of the show."
However, concert promoters Live Nation insisted last night there have been no issues with the tour and Miley will continue to perform in arenas across the globe.
A spokesperson told MailOnline: "There is no truth whatsoever to any stories or rumors of venues pulling out of the 'Bangerz Tour'.
"Miley has created a tour that's big, spectacular, entertaining and everything you would expect from Miley Cyrus. Reviews have been amazing and most important, fans are loving the show and having a great time."

EastEnders' Lucy Beale is to be murdered.
The 20-year-old businesswoman - played by Hetti Bywater - will be killed off this Spring in the soap's biggest whodunnit plot, which will start a brand new dark chapter for the Beale family.
Lucy will be brutally slaughtered by a fellow resident, but bosses are keen for the storyline to be as big as the, 'Who Shot Phil Mitchell?' plot in 2001, so are withholding the identity of the killer until next year.
The mystery will give Adam Woodyatt - who plays Lucy's father Ian - a chance to "shine" following his alter-ego's successful breakdown storyline last year, which saw him flee Walford and return as a tramp.
An insider told The Sun newspaper: "It's been so cleverly plotted that it isn't a typical whodunnit. It's going to be raw, emotional and gritty.
"It will see her dad Ian start to question how well he really knew his daughter as secrets spill out after her death.
"But one Walford resident has a very dark secret about it -- and viewers will be left guessing for the rest of the year."
Meanwhile, Lucy - who has been played by four actresses since 1993 - will be murdered a month before rival soap 'Coronation Street' feature Tina McIntyre - played by Michelle Keegan - being killed off.

Nile Rodgers performed with Kylie Minogue at a BRITs after-party.
The 61-year-old musician took to the stage with his band Chic at the Warner Belvedere bash, held in London, on Wednesday night (19.02.14) to perform a half- hour set in front of his showbiz pals.
Noel Gallagher, Florence Welch, David Haye and the Arctic Monkeys watched on as the group sung out their hits, including 'Good Times', 'Everybody Dance', 'We Are Family' and 'I Want Your Love'.
Kylie then jumped up on stage and joined them for the song 'Le Freak', with her sister Dannii Minogue cheering and supporting them from the front row.
Meanwhile, Nile - who collected Daft Punk's BRIT Award for them at the glamorous ceremony - recently admitted drugs used to be an "important" part of his life, but he quit his habits because his career meant more to him than partying.
He said previously: "I felt that that would be an impingement on my ability to play music.
"I remember reading an article by Keith Richards saying he could live without drugs but he couldn't live without music and I feel exactly the same way.
"My life revolved around music but drugs were an important component, just as much so as any intellectual property or breathing or eating food."

Jennifer Aniston is in talks to join 'Mean Moms'. The 45-year-old actress is reportedly in early negotiations to take a role in the new comedy following her success in 'Horrible Bosses' and 'We're the Millers', according to The Hollywood Reporter. T...

Wilko Johnson admits it's a "dream" to make an album with Roger Daltrey because he's "supposed to be dead".
The 66-year-old singer - who announced he had terminal pancreatic cancer in January 2013 - has teamed up with Roger to create 'Going Back Home', and he insists music has helped him with his illness.
Speaking to The Sun newspaper, he said: "It's been an amazing year for me. To still be alive after I'm supposed to be dead and making an album with Roger Daltrey is a dream. It has really helped sustain me.
"I've been a manic depressive all through my life, going up and down. There have been dark nights of the soul and all that sort of stuff.
"Now I'm thinking, 'F***ing hell, you're alive, what more do you want?' The basic feeling I have now is better than the basic feeling I've had before in my life. I like being alive so much more."
The former Dr. Feelgood guitarist - who was told he'd unlikely live a year after he refused chemotherapy - believes his determination has encouraged other people suffering with cancer.
He explained: "People with cancer or people who know someone with cancer have told me they've been inspired.
"I've been getting all this mail and people come up and shake my hand. They seem to care about me which is very, very touching."
Roger, while addressing Wilko, adds: "When they realise what's happening to you, they drop their egos and become human beings."
'Going Back Home' will be released on March 24.

Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan are planning a summer wedding.
The couple are currently searching for the perfect venue for their nuptials and the 'Party Wright Around the World ' star says they have now decided against staging it in either Essex, where he grew up, or Michelle's Manchester hometown.
He said: "It may be in between [the two places]. You can't get married in Essex because there are so few venues. What's perfect could be miles away from the both of us, so people might have to travel and stay in hotels.
"We'd like a summer wedding, definitely in the UK. I'm planning the party."
The 27-year-old star admitted he was terrified when he asked Michelle to be his wife.
He said: "It was scarier than swimming with sharks on my show. It was nerve-wracking. When she said yes I was ecstatic."
Mark - who says the couple will exchange "traditional" vows - insisted the casts of 'The Only Way is Essex' and 'Coronation Street' won't be on their wedding guest list.
He told Britain's OK! magazine: "They won't all be coming. The only people coming from 'TOWIE' are the people who were my friends in the first place, which is Arg, my sister and my cousin Elliott."
