The teenage daughter of the Marquess of Queensberry was a prostitute and dominatrix before she died following a drug and alcohol binge, her boyfriend claims.
Lady Beth Douglas died after injecting heroin at a party inside a £2.5m flat in Notting Hill, west London, in March, an inquest heard.
The 18-year-old aristocrat also had cocaine and morphine in her blood, and her partner, Jenan Karagoli, told a coroner he had discovered needle marks on her arm after failing to wake her.
Karagoli, 21, now claims that Beth, the youngest child of David Douglas, the 88-year-old 12th marquess, had been making money by working as a prostitute, appearing in dominatrix webcam shows and selling her underwear via the internet for £30 a time.
Karagoli claimed to the Daily Mail that the couple had argued about her alleged sexual behaviour the day before she died on March 7.
He said: "I knew about all this adult work, escorting, so on and so forth – but I kept my mouth shut."
He claims she would tell him to wait in a pub and then disappear for hours, saying: "She told me to sit and enjoy my Guinness while she went and met a friend.
"Soon she would phone and say she had got us a hotel room for the night."
He added: "I knew something had been happening, but my mind was too clouded from the drink and drugs."
Karagoli claims he confronted Beth the day before she died and offered help.
He claims she had been performing dominatrix webcam shows with men for up to three months, and sold her underwear online for £30 a time.
Karagoli said he met Beth, a student and talented violinist known to her family and friends as Ling Ling, through pals on her 18th birthday, leading to a ten-month relationship.
He said they went to the party at a Notting Hill home, which was near to their flat, and he left when Beth asked him to buy wine.
Karagoli told the inquest at Westminster Coroner’s Court that he returned and found her on the sofa, then joined her thinking she was asleep.
He woke up in the early hours of March 7 and was unable to revive her.
He told the inquest that a man in the flat told him she had taken heroin and he saw a "little peck of dots" on her skin.
Karagoli told the inquest the pair had spent at least two days drinking and taking drugs while staying in hotels.
Lord Queensberry criticised police for failing to identify the heroin dealer and those who were at the party.
The inquest recorded Beth’s cause of death as a cardiac respiratory failure and cocaine and heroin poisoning.
