Lindsay Lohan is reportedly 'getting close' to the crown prince of Saudi Arabia, Mohammad bin Salman, who has been accused of ordering the 2018 murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

According to Page Six, the prince has been flying the actress around in his jets and has even given her a credit card.

The two met a year ago at a Formula One Grand Prix race and have been forming a friendship ever since, sources told the news outlet.

But a representative for Lohan has denied those claims and only confirmed that the pair had met last year.

However, other sources close to the Mean Girls actress claimed they've seen text exchanges between the two.

Lohan is currently in Australia where she made her debut on the Australian edition of The Masked Singer last month.

Over the past few weeks, Lohan has made headlines about an alleged feud between her and co-stars Dannii Minogue and Dave Hughes on the set of show.

But sources said despite her commitments in Australia, Lohan and Salman wouldn't be an unusual match because the actress has in the past been sought after by Middle Eastern dignitaries.

'They go crazy for her out there,' the source told PageSix, referring to Lohan's time spent in Dubai.

Last year, Lohan opened up about her all-female film, Frame, which focuses on Saudi culture.

'It's going to be an exciting role to play. It's OK that it's kind of similar to me, because then I've got my own experience to draw on,' Lohan said last May.

Before the murder of journalist Khasoggi in 2018, Salman was known for modernizing Saudi Arabia by lifting the ban on driving.

Last week the Middle Eastern country loosened more restrictions on women by allowing any citizen to apply for a passport and travel freely, ending a long-standing guardianship policy that gave men control over women.

But Salman's reputation was tainted by a United Nations report that was released in June. The report stated that there was 'credible evidence' that he was to blame for Khasoggi's murder.

The report stated that Khasoggi was drugged with a sedative and suffocated with a plastic bag.

An audio recording of Khashoggi's final moments apparently reveals how his killers discussed cutting his body into pieces, before accosting the dissident writer who died amid 'sounds of a struggle' at the Saudi consulate in Istanbul.

Despite Salman's economic reform plan, his reputation has also been tainted by the accusation that he ordered the attack on journalist Jamal Khashoggi (pictured), who was killed in October 2018

In a 99-page, the United Nations revealed that experts found it 'inconceivable' that a sophisticated 15-man mission to kill Khashoggi could have happened without the prince's knowledge.

Agnes Callamard, a UN special rapporteur explained in the report why there is 'credible evidence' that the operation was linked to the prince himself.

Some of her reasons include the following: The prince was already known to have been behind a 'organized and coordinated crackdown' against the regime's opponents before the Khashoggi killing.

Callamard said Salman had played an 'essential role' in that, and the forces of the State 'could not be used in this manner without his agreement or acquiescence'.

She said that Khashoggi was himself 'fearful' of the powers of the prince.

Experts also believe that Saudi officials' subsequent efforts to destroy evidence 'could not have taken place without the Crown Prince's awareness'.

Callamard further explained that the prince could be held responsible as a high-level official even if there was no 'smoking gun' linking him to the killing.
