Kate, Pete 'exchange late night texts'

Kate Moss has reportedly exchanged late night text messages with her former lover Pete Doherty.

According to The Mirror, the pair's recent communication is the reason behind Moss's split from The Kills star Jamie Hince.

"Jamie was furious when Pete got in touch about a week ago," said an insider. "And over the last three nights he and Kate have texted each other until the early hours.

"Pete's been showing the texts to mates and thinks he is on the verge of winning her back but his mates aren't convinced."

Doherty split from Moss in July 2007 following allegations that he cheated on her with a South African model.
