Jordan's Queen Noor is allegedly romancing a Mexican billionaire.

The 57-year-old royal - who is the widow of King Hussein - has reportedly been paying frequent visits to Carlos Slim in Mexico, with the pair often spending time relaxing with friends.

Culture blog transracial.net claims: "They are involved in a golden-years romance. She visits Mexico City often, is said to be studying Spanish, stays in the hip Hotel Condesa and they either rendezvous at the private homes of friends or in luxury resorts in Latin America."

Queen Noor and Carlos were seen together in 2007, at a fundraising event in New York.

Representatives for the queen and for the New York Times - which Carlos is a major investor in - have not commented on the report.

However, the queen's office declared a recent report that the pair had stayed in New York's Palace Hotel together "entirely erroneous".

Both Noor and Carlos lost their partners in 1999.

Noor is not the only royal rumoured to have been embarking on a romance recently.

Last month, Britain's Prince Andrew reportedly spent hours "chatting up" a rich socialite in New York.

Sources told America's New York Post newspaper the Duke of York seemed "fixated" on Valesca, and couldn't stop staring at her.

An insider said: "Andrew was chatting her up all night. He didn't leave her for a second. He was clearly very taken with Valesca, and she certainly didn't seem to mind the attention either!"
