Kara Tointon and Artem Chigvinstev are said to be going through a bit of a rough patch.
The couple, who started dating after being paired up on the 2010 series of Strictly Come Dancing, have apparently grown apart.
A source told The Mirror: “Things have been a bit rocky between them now for a good few months but they have tried to work though their problems.”
The insider added: “Neither wanted to throw in the towel but Artem’s confided in pals that they actually called time on their romance a few months ago. They simply drifted apart.
“They remain great friends and Artem is still living at Kara’s. And, to the outside world, they are putting on a front, insisting all is well at least until Strictly finishes.”
Despite this Kara was spotted cheering on her beau and his dance partner, former Coronation Street star Natalie Gumede, only a matter of weeks ago and has recently spoken out about how happy she is.
Kara and Artem won the series in 2010.
