Britain's Prince Harry and Cressida Bonas are likely to rekindle their relationship.
The royal's 18-month romance with the dancer isn't over for good and the pair are allegedly going to meet up to discuss the status of their romance.
An insider told Vanity Fair: "There will be another chapter to the Harry and Cressida love story. Harry likes the drama of a breakup and then a make up."
Another pal added: "Cressida is really cut up about how things ended and spent the weekend feeling very down."
The 25-year-old blonde is said to be nervous about being portrayed the way the Duchess of Cambridge - formerly known as Kate Middleton - was in the years before Prince William proposed to her, with the media nicknaming her 'Waity Katie', and is determined to retain a sense of individuality.
The source explained: "Cressida is very confident and won't be conforming to the royal look like Kate Middleton did. She is her own person, and Harry will have to accept that.
"Harry likes the fact the media are reporting they've split, because it gives him and Cressida some time to try and sort things out away from the limelight."
Harry and Cressida were reported to have parted ways at the end of last month, with the 29-year-old royal attending his friend Guy Pelly's wedding in Memphis, Tennessee without her over the weekend.

Bez has written to Britain's Prince Charles asking him to back his anti-fracking campaign.
The Happy Mondays star, who has reinvented himself as a politician and plans to stand as an MP for Salford and Eccles in Greater Manchester next year, has penned a letter to the eco-friendly Prince of Wales asking him to help raise awareness of the negative effects caused by the controversial gas extraction technique.
The former 'Celebrity Big Brother' winner wrote: "As a respected proponent of permaculture we are appealing to you to help us raise awareness of the risks to our environment due to fracking and would welcome a public statement supporting the necessity of protecting and maintaining our environment.
"We hope that reason does not impair your judgement and that you will come to the aid of your people."
The maracas-shaking dancer, otherwise known as Mark Berry, is eagerly awaiting a reply from the royal heir, who he believes is a great role model.
Bez told the Manchester Evening News: "I have never met him before but I know that he does a lot of work for charities and I am hoping that he will lend his voice to anti-fracking.
"I recently saw him promoting wild flower meadows and I thought 'he is living the life that is an example to the rest of the country.'
"That is my dream - to create an England the way he has lived his life. We need his strong influential voice and I look forward to hearing back from him."
The 50-year-old star is hopeful Charles will support his catchy anti-fracking slogan, "shake your maracas if you're against the frackers".

Britain's Sophie, Countess of Wessex attended the Inclusive Zone Basketball championships yesterday (07.05.14).
The 49-year-old wife of Prince Edward visited Worcester in the West Midlands to watch schoolchildren battle it out in the national final before presenting the winners and runners-up with awards.
The game, which is specially adapted to allow both disabled and able bodied players to participate, has been close to the Countess' heart ever since she became fascinated by British Wheelchair Basketball during the London 2012 Games.
The royal - who subsequently become patron of the sport - sat next to the new captain of Great Britain women's Wheelchair Basketball team, Sophie Carrigill, during lunch.
Carrigill told the Worcester News: "I knew I was on her table but I didn't know I was sitting right next to her. I was a bit nervous but she was really nice and really chatty and interested in basketball and what we are doing here in Worcester.
"She said how thrilled she was to be a part of it and how exciting she finds the game."
As well as chatting to the youngsters competing in the Inclusive Zone Basketball final, the Countess of Wessex also met with the University of Worcester's vice chancellor, Professor David Green, Malcolm Tarkenter, the chairman of British Wheelchair Basketball, and Sir Philip Craven, the president of the International Paralympic Committee.

Britain's Prince Harry hosted a gala to mark the tenth anniversary of his Sentebale charity on Wednesday night (07.05.14).
The 29-year-old royal welcomed guests including the charity's co-founder, Prince Seeiso of Lesotho, to his Sentebale Summer Party at The Dorchester hotel in London, where they were treated to a VIP drinks reception and gourmet dinner.
The evening culminated in the presentation of awards to key people and organisations who have supported the charity's tireless work helping orphans in the Aids-stricken nation of Lesotho over the last decade.
According to the Daily Telegraph newspaper, Harry told the crowd during a speech: "When I see or hear the difference that Sentebale and its partners have made in the last 10 years, it is a constant reminder that, not only are we doing great things in this little African country, but how much we rely on the help and expertise of everyone around us.
"What a difference we can make if we all work together."
Guests - who included Westlife's Kian Egan - were serenaded by the Basotho Choir's traditional songs, as well as performances by singers Joss Stone and Beverley Knight.
Prince Seeiso stressed the importance of helping children orphaned by the devastating HIV virus in his country.
He said: "Harry and I know what it is like to lose a parent, or parents in my case, and it is a combined desire to carry on our mothers' legacy of work that formed Sentebale."

Britain's Prince Edward presented the weather during a trip to the University of Reading.
The Earl of Wessex, accompanied by his wife Sophie, was given a tour of the university and took on the challenge of using the green screen to give his own forecast.
He learnt the ropes from 'Good Morning Britain's' weather presenter Laura Tobin before taking his turn in front of the camera, looking smart in a grey suit, white shirt and yellow tie.
Sophie watched on as her husband followed in the footsteps of Prince Charles, who also attempted to present a lunchtime weather forecast slot in 2012.
Laura later took to Twitter to praise Prince Edward, who she thought was a quick learner, and later spoke about the royal visit on 'Good Morning Britain'.
She posted a photograph of the two of them, along with the caption: "Here I am giving top tips on weather presenting to Prince Edward! He was a good pupil & rivalled Prince Charles @gmb (sic)"

Britain's Prince Charles' chickens have been slaughtered.
The 65-year-old royal was forced to temporarily close his Close Farm organic egg business in Tetbury, Gloucestershire, after a fox attacked his chicken coop, killing 24 of his prize birds.
The thrifty heir to the throne - who also owns farms in Windsor, London and Bath - is passionate about organic produce and sells the produce in the farms' shops.
According to the MailOnline, egg enthusiasts in Tetbury were dismayed when they were greeted by a sign informing them they would have to get their protein elsewhere.
The message read: "Dear Customers, The fox killed 24 of our chickens now the rest of the surviving chickens have been brought to a more secure location. This will mean no more eggs to sell, sorry, regards."
This will no doubt come as a blow to the Prince of Wales, who invested around £100,000 in his organic retail business when he moved it from his nearby Highgrove Estate to Tetbury.
His home delivery Veg Shed initiative also shut down last year after the cold spring ruined the vegetable crop, and he has yet to revive it.
However, his Duchy Originals brand - which he founded in 1990 - has proved popular since it partnered with a Waitrose in 2009, with £2.8 million of all profits going to charity each year.

Britain's Queen Elizabeth got a taste of the Essex lifestyle yesterday (06.05.14).
The monarch and her husband Prince Philip took part in a 650-strong service at Chelmsford's cathedral church of St Mary the Virgin, St Peter and St Cedd, where the reverend joked about ITV2 reality show 'The Only Way is Essex', famed for its fake tans and nightlife.
During the service, which celebrated 100 years of the diocese, the Right Reverend Stephen Cottrell said: "Created to solve the pressing challenge of massive population growth and urbanisation in east London we are, as one experienced priest put it: 'the most complicated and diverse diocese in the English Church'.
"We serve the most rural, the most urban, the most coastal, and I wish to add, the most glorious diocese in the Church of England. You name it; here in the Diocese of Chelmsford, we've got it. "
"Yes, you could even say, the only way is Essex, but I want to tell you about a better way and its roots in this old county - the way of Jesus Christ."
The Daily Express newspaper reports the 88-year-old ruler and Philip, 92, also paid a visit to Felsted School to unveil a plaque commemorating the school's 450th anniversary and another marking the completion of a new boarding house.
The royals have a strong connection to the establishment since the late Queen Mother attended its 400th anniversary celebrations back in the 60s and former pupil Sir Marcus Setchell helped deliver Prince George last year.

Britain's Prince George enjoyed a secret ice-cream trip during his stay in New Zealand.
The youngest member of the royal family escaped to Frank Kitts Park, Wellington, to savour his first ice-cream with his Spanish nanny Maria Borrallo while his parents the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were hard at work touring New Zealand last month.
The nine-month-old baby managed to avoid the cameras for a rare afternoon, no doubt a welcome break from being the centre of attention during his first official public outings.
The pair went completely unnoticed by passers-by, who missed George nibbling on his nanny's 99 Flake cone.
Barry Ludlow, the Mr Freeze ice cream van owner who served them the tasty treat, told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "There were plenty of people walking around the waterfront, there were children everywhere, but I don't think anyone saw them.
"They didn't look out of place at all."
Wellington's Mayor Celia Wade-Brown added: "I have heard rumours from people that the nanny and Prince George were out and about in the city and were seen places, and one of the rumours was that they were at Frank Kitts Park.
"I hope they enjoyed a chance to have some peace and quiet without being recognised by anyone."
George is currently resting at home after a hectic three weeks in Australia and New Zealand, where he was showered with attention from fans and photographed incessantly.
