The former couple split last month, but they have been spotted out and about together, and appear to be giving their romance another go, after the model reached out to the 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians' star.

A source said: "Kourtney and Younes are spending time together again. Things are not yet back to what they were before - it's not an official relationship.

"Kourtney always liked him though and it was hard for her to stay away after he reached out."

While there was no infidelity involved in their split, the pair are said to still have "issues to work out" before they potentially become a couple again.

The source added to PEOPLE: "He says he never cheated on her. And it seems she believes him. Kourtney seems happy with him for now.

"But it still seems like they have issues to work out."

The 39-year-old reality star and the 25-year-old model - who started dating in 2016 - were spotted at a sushi restaurant in Malibu together on Monday night (03.09.18).

But sources told gossip website TMZ that Kourtney is still happily single, and not back with Younes.

However, the pair's meet up comes after Kourtney - who has kids Mason, eight, Penelope, six, and Reign, three, with her former partner Scott Disick - was recently said to have completely cut ties with Younes following their break up.

An insider said: "Kourtney is doing great. She isn't seeing Younes. She is happy being single for now.

"After all the drama with Scott over the years, she wasn't going put up with any drama from Younes. She cut him off. She is focused on her kids and herself."

It was also recently claimed the pair's split was welcomed by Kourtney's family, including her sister Kim Kardashian West and her mother Kris Jenner.

A source said: "Kourtney was always so private and closed off when it came to Younes, and that really distanced herself from her sisters.

"Things are fine with them now and I'm sure they'll get even more back to normal now that it seems he's out of the picture for good.

"This could be a really positive thing for her relationship with her family."
