Grant, Khan buying Paris flat?

Hugh Grant has been helping Jemima Khan find an apartment in Paris, according to reports.

The couple split last February after three years but were spotted dining in the French capital earlier this month.

Grant is rumoured to have claimed that he wants to spend the rest of his life with the heiress after initially being reluctant to commit.

A source told the Daily Mail: "They were in touch with a number of upmarket estate agencies and they showed an interest in one of two properties in the centre of town.

"Money was no object, of course, although privacy and security were paramount."

Friends previously dismissed rumours of a reunion between the pair, insisting that they had been in the city on separate business.

The source added: "Searching for a nid douillet (cosy nest) in Paris doesn't necessarily mean you're getting back together, but it would suggest they're getting on very well."
