Kylie Minogue has enjoyed secret meetings with former lover Olivier Martinez in an attempt to rekindle their four-year relationship.

The couple separated in February amid reports Martinez had cheated on Kylie following her breast cancer ordeal, earning him the nickname “Le Rat”.

But The Mail on Sunday can reveal that the couple have recently enjoyed at least two romantic rendezvous in Paris.

After one lunch meeting, Kylie, who was visiting the French capital for a routine check-up at Tenon Hospital, was spotted kissing and embracing Martinez outside a cafe on the Left Bank, close to where the 41-year-old actor has a home.

The couple have remained friends since their split, and the actor often allows Kylie to stay in his flat in the fashionable St Germain district – but this was the first time they have been in the city together. And both Kylie and Martinez have come to realise they are the love of each other’s lives, according to friends.

“Kylie has made regular visits to Olivier’s home in Paris over the past few weeks,” a friend revealed. “And recently their relationship has begun to redevelop.

“Things started to progress when Kylie flew over for a hospital appointment. They went for a heart-to-heart lunch and thrashed out a few issues.

A second source said: “Kylie put on a chic black dress and headscarf to look as Parisian as possible. She loves the look, and knows Ollie does, too. We were all delighted to see them back together again. She always says she’s at her happiest in Paris, and especially with Ollie. She still calls him the love of her life.

“Since their split they’ve talked to each other on the phone constantly, but it’s only in the past few weeks that they’ve started meeting again. It would be wonderful if they got back together and the signs look good.

“While Kylie was recovering from chemotherapy, she spent weeks at Olivier’s flat, and he was there for her. She has such fond memories.

“It sounds sad but Kylie also loves Olivier’s dog, Sheba, and takes him for walks whenever she’s in Paris. Olivier loves that.”

The pair split shortly after Kylie was given the all-clear for cancer. Olivier was accused of cheating on her after he was photographed with 24-year-old Israeli model Sarai Givati – although at the time Kylie denied her boyfriend had been unfaithful.

The Aussie superstar revealed the ‘H&M Loves Kylie’ range in Shanghai.

Minogue is the second pop sensation to design a range for the low cost-high fashion retail chain.

Madonna also released her designs for the label earlier this year. However, the Queen of Pop’s range has reportedly failed to sell out.

Kylie’s swimwear is available in stores from May 10. Prices range from £3.99 to £19.99.

Kylie Minogue arrives at the Victoria and Albert Museum for a Retrospective Exhibition to celebrate her career in London, England, February 6.

Australian singer Kylie Minogue and Paris-born actor Olivier Martinez have broken up after four years together, according to a statement released Friday.

“Olivier Martinez and Kylie Minogue have officially confirmed that they are no longer a couple,” says the statement issued by reps for the couple. “They have made it clear that the decision to go their separate ways was mutual and amicable. The two remain very close friends.”

The pop princess and Martinez are both, it says, “saddened by false [media] accusations of disloyalty.”

The couple’s parting follows reports that Martinez, 41, was seen with younger women in Los Angeles twice last week while Minogue, 38, remained in Britain.

The Australian entertainer is recovering from a respiratory infection, which caused her to cancel several concert dates in the UK last month. The gigs were part of her worldwide comeback Showgirl tour following her battle to beat cancer.

Minogue earlier this year credited Martinez, who appeared in Unfaithful with Diane Lane and Richard Gere in 2002, with helping her through the dark days of her breast cancer battle. She was diagnosed with the disease in May of 2005.

“He was always there, helping with the practical stuff and being protective,” said Minogue, who was given the all-clear last year. “He was incredible. He didn’t hesitate in canceling work and putting projects on hold so he could be with me. He’s the most honorable man I have ever met.”

Minogue began dating Martinez after they met at the Grammy Awards in 2003. After dining in Beverly Hills, Martinez drove her back to her hotel in his 1969 cream convertible E-type Jaguar.

Kylie recently told all in an interview with Britain’s Sky One Netowrk.

International Pop Superstar Kylie Minogue admits she was so distraught by the news of her breast cancer that all she wanted to do was run away and hide. Kylie is telling all in her first television interview to Britain’s Sky One network.
Kylie is in remission after a year of chemo and a partial mastectomy, and even though she looks better than ever… there were times when she wondered.

The moment my doctor told me, I went silent. My mum and dad were with me. Then we all fell to pieces,” she tells the Sky. “I was saying, ‘No, Dad, I’m getting on a plane’. He said, ‘No, you’re not getting on a plane – you’ll sit down’.”

She looks really good!
