A German actress who was one of Hitler's favourite stars and had an affair with Nazi propaganda chief Joseph Goebbels was a Moscow spy, declassified files show.
Marika Rökk, who was born in Egypt to Hungarian parents, is believed to have used her ties with the Nazi regime to pass Third Reich secrets to the Soviets, according to newly released intelligence files.
She is thought to have been recruited to the KGB by her manager, Heinz Hoffmeister - who was believed to be already working with Soviet intelligence - from as early as 1940.
