A friend of mine thinks her partner may be monitoring her iPhone. He knows details of conversations she has had with other people etc. Is this possible and how would she check?

It's possible he obtained the information through other means. While spyware can exist on iPhones, it's extremely complex and will cost about $500,000 to compile and deploy against a single target. Unless this guy has money lying around to burn on something like this, it's unlikely he compromised the device.

Either way, it's not a healthy thing to do and they should do something about the root cause of his insecurities.
