A SUSPECTED Chinese spy who was friends with Prince Andrew has been unmasked for the first time.
Teng Bo Yang, 50, is understood to have been a “close confidante” of the Duke of York.

He was invited to Andrew’s birthday party in 2020 and supported him through his recent scandals.
But the suspected spy subsequently lost an appeal against a decision to ban him from the UK on national security grounds.
Judges concluded Bo Yang had not been honest about his links to the Chinese state and could exploit his relationship with the duke and other public figures.
It comes after a statement from the duke’s office on Friday said “nothing of a sensitive nature [was] ever discussed”.
The statement added: “The Duke of York followed advice from HMG and ceased all contact with the individual after concerns were raised.
“The duke met the individual through official channels, with nothing of a sensitive nature ever discussed.
“He is unable to comment further on matters relating to national security.”
It is the latest scandal to hit the Duke, who withdrew from public life after paying damages to Virginia Roberts-Giuffre, a victim of his US paedo pal Jeffrey Epstein.
