Newly-single Jemima Khan reunites with ex Hugh Grant at Halloween ball
03-11-2013 | Daily Mail
They might have split more than six years ago, but it seems Jemima Khan is still best of friends with her ex Hugh Grant.
The 39-year-old editor, who recently ended her short-lived romance with Russell Brand, was seen attending the UNICEF Halloween Ball at One Mayfair in London on Thursday night alongside Notting Hill star Hugh.
Jemima, who had taken inspiration from Oscar-winning movie Black Swan for her all-black tutu ensemble, looked in good spirits as she posed up next to Hugh, 53, inside the bash.

However, while Jemima appeared to have gone all out with her spooky look, Hugh seemed to have left his outfit planning to the last minute.
Clearly having forgotten the dress code, Hugh topped off his look with a frilly cat mask, smiling somewhat bashfully as he smiled for photographers.
Jemima dated Hugh from 2005 to 2007 when they split, but remained friends.

It was recently revealed that Jemima and Russell, who first started dating in June, had split, with the socialite apparently deciding that he wasn't boyfriend material.
A source told the Daily Star newspaper: 'They do get along great and have a lot in common, but she doesn't think he's mature enough for her to consider a serious relationship.
'And until he proves otherwise, she has said she can only see him on a casual basis.'

Russell first revealed his romance with Jemima in a lengthy piece in The Guardian in early September, in which he admitted to being 'presently beleaguered by a nerdish, whirling dervish, and am eschewing all others.'
But he said at the end of the month during a gig in Atlanta that he is most definitely 'single'.
Russell has a notorious reputation as a ladies man and was previously married to Katy Perry.
Jemima's ex-husband is Pakistani cricketer-turned-politician Imran Khan.
