Kara Tointon has sparked rumours that she is dating Matt Johnson.

The actress, who has starred in EastEnders and Mr Selfridge, was spotted with the television presenter at a pub in West London recently.

This Morning’s Matt is believed to be Kara’s new man.

A witness told The Sunday Mirror that there certainly seemed to be something going on between the pair.

They revealed: “They looked very close, touching each other, and Matt put his arm around her at one point. They held hands as they walked. They looked very loved-up.”

Matt is the first person Kara has seriously been linked to since splitting from professional dancer Artem Chigvinstev.

They fell in love during the 2010 series of Strictly Come Dancing but split last November due to issues with his work visa which meant they were apart for long periods of time.
