A new image of Princess Latifa, the daughter of the ruler of Dubai, has been posted on Instagram suggesting she was at a Spanish airport.
Several pictures of the princess appearing alive and well have been posted by the same person, Sioned Taylor, in recent months.
Princess Latifa had not been seen in public since her failed attempt to flee the UAE in 2018.
Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al Maktoum has consistently denied his daughter has been kept hostage, saying she is safe and well.
Calls had been made for the sheikh to provide "proof of life" of his daughter after the tapes were published.
After the latest image was posted, David Haigh, co-founder of the Free Latifa campaign, said: "We are pleased to see Latifa seemingly having a passport, travelling and enjoying an increasing degree of freedom, these are very positive steps forward." In secret video messages released to Sky News in February this year, the Dubai royal claimed her father was holding her hostage.
The latest image shows Latifa, 35, wearing a face mask indoors - a measure enforced due to the recent COVID-19 pandemic.
The princess attempted to escape from her family in March 2018, by trying to sail across the Indian Ocean, but she was brought back to Dubai in what the royal family said was a rescue mission.
The sheikh had claimed Latifa was tricked into escaping by criminals who wanted money and that returning her to Dubai was a rescue mission.
He insisted she was safe and well and that the family wanted to maintain her privacy.

I always confuse her with Queen Latifah, who must be her mom, right?
but i thought she was a queen!
wait, this one is real princess, not some delusional ho...
never mind
Yes the Jordanian one I think? She is now divorced from the Sheikh
I thought the same LOL
That would be a story, considering Queen Latifah plays for the other team.
Yes .
Try a Bull version of that .
“...Queen Latifah plays for the other team.”
Really? I did not know that. Hey, at least I know who Queen Latifah is, unlike most “celebrities” these days.
Heard that name before, an obese sample of a certain protected species, I believe?
