New archival material released in the UK have revealed some unexpected details about one of the biggest spy scandals connected to the British Royal Family. Files newly released by the UK spy agency MI5 show that Queen Elizabeth the Second wasn’t told details of her long-time art adviser Sir Anthony Blunt's double life as a Soviet spy because palace officials didn’t want to add to her worries.
