The Buckingham Palace security is "deeply concerned" about the royal staff bringing overnight guests they have met online, in the Queen's pad.

A source said that there are real and serious security concerns at Buckingham Palace about members of staff use of dating apps such as Tinder, which can be rather sleazy, the Daily Star reported.

The insider added that the palace police are particularly unhappy about the number of guests of servants staying overnight, especially when they may have only just met on Tinder, and it is a security nightmare, especially in the current climate.

One former head of royal protection, Chief Superintendent Dai Davies, said that historically the overnight guests has always been a problem, even when he was in charge way before the introduction of these so-called dating apps.

 

A Buckingham Palace spokesman declined to comment, saying they never discussed security matters.
