Glam Anna ex killed by drugs

- By Alan Selby

RUSSIAN spy Anna Chapman’s British ex-husband died of a drug overdose, it emerged yesterday.

Alex Chapman’s family insist his 2015 death was due to natural causes.

But his death certificat­e says it was drug-related after a coroner ruled he had a multiple overdose. Alex, 36, had split from Anna in 2006. He died in Southampto­n.

Anna, celebrated as Russia’s most glamorous spy, was exposed while in New York and in 2010 was returned to Moscow under a prisoner swap in which double agent Sergei Skripal came to the UK.
