Britain's Prince Harry has given his girlfriend Cressida Bonas her own security pass for his Kensington Palace apartment.

The loved-up royal and the blonde beauty are said to be spending more time together and the young prince has taken things to the next step by giving her full access to the exclusive complex in London after being given the green light by royal security guards.

A source told the Daily Star newspaper: "Cressida can often be seen with her overnight bag at Kensington Palace and spends a lot of week nights there.

"Now she is a more regular fixture in Harry's life, security for her has been relaxed somewhat.

"She is very cool about the whole thing - another reason why Harry is mad about her - but it wouldn't surprise anyone if they found a place together very soon."

The source said Cressida, 25, isn't "pushy" and realises dating a prince has it's difficulties but has reportedly told family members she is serious about the 29-year-old royal.

They added: "The next step is living together but there are more hurdles than you'd imagine for that to happen."

The young couple, who have been dating since 2012, spend a lot of time at Kensington Palace and are close to Harry's brother William and wife Catherine who live in a renovated apartment in the complex with their seven-month-old son, Prince George.
