'EastEnders' actress splits from lover

The star, who plays Dawn on the BBC soap, had been dating the Dream Team actor for 18 months. Friends claim that Kara's closeness to co-star James Alexandrou was partly responsible for the break-up.
A source told The Mirror, "Kara and James are good mates and are always fooling around together."
However, Tointon insists that her busy schedule caused problems for their relationship; "We're both very busy - although I hate to think work could have been a factor."
Kara has previously been involved with ex-Busted singer James Bourne.
