Tointon: Working with Swash again will be strange
Kara Tointon admits it will be “strange” to work with boyfriend Joe Swash again.
The ‘EastEnders’ actress – who starred with the actor in the BBC soap when he played her on-screen brother – are set to appear alongside each other in pantomime at Christmas and while Tointon says it will feel a bit odd, she is looking forward to it.
She said: “We are starring in panto together. I love singing and dancing so it’s perfect. It’ll be strange to work together again but we’re looking forward to it.”
Tointon – who is leaving the soap later this month – also revealed she and Swash want to travel around Australia.
She said: “Australia is my dream destination, but I couldn’t go last year when Joe went for ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!’ because I was working. Joe was in the jungle the whole time so he didn’t get to travel much. I’m hoping we can tour the country together.”
