Hugh Grant wants to get back with Jemima Khan

Hollywood hunk Hugh Grant is desperate to get back together with ex-girlfriend Jemima Khan.

The 'Love Actually' star - whose three-year relationship with the socialite and UNICEF UK Ambassador ended last year - wants to turn his back on singledom and spend the rest of his life with Jemima.

A friend of the actor said: "Hugh has admitted he really messed up with Jemima. He has spent months regretting their break-up. At the time he didn't want stability and marriage but now he is sure that is what he wants, and he wants it with Jemima.

"Jemima has been having fun but she never really got over the split with Hugh. She wants to marry and settle down."

The couple ignited rumors they had rekindled their romance after meeting in Paris last week.

However, a friend insisted the meeting was not planned, saying: "Jemima was in Paris for work and, coincidentally, Hugh was there to meet a French film director.

"They met up but Jemima insists she stayed at her hotel alone."

Hugh and Jemima - who is reportedly dating businessman Ben Elliot - also both attended a pre-BAFTA party at London's Cecconi's restaurant on Friday last week.
