PRINCE William and his ex Kate Middleton have had two secret meetings in a bid to stay close friends.
The "peace talks" were at a hideaway pub and the home of a discreet pal.
Ahighly-placed source said: "It is too early to talk of a reconciliation. But William is determined not to simply abandon Kate. And she acknowledges they have a history that would be a shame to cast aside."
The 24-year-old Prince's split with Kate, 25, was revealed six weeks ago. But the source said they got together at the friend's London home and "agreed over a bottle of wine that they remained very important in each other's lives".
They met again for a two-hour meal at a pub near Prince Charles's home in Highgrove, Gloucs. William then went to Highgrove and Kate drove to her parents' home in Berks.
The source said: "They are still enormously fond of each other."
