Dean Gaffney splits from model girlfriend

Dean Gaffney has reportedly split from his girlfriend Rebekah Rose-Ward.

The \'EastEnders\' actor - best known for his role as Robbie Jackson on the soap - is said to be single again after the 25-year-old blonde model called time on their three year relationship because she "felt like a trophy on his arm".

An insider told The Sun newspaper\'s Bizarre column: "Dean hit the jackpot when he got together with Rebekah but now she\'s told him to take a hike.

"She got bored of his antics and felt like a trophy on his arm, not a girlfriend he treasured and wanted to marry. Dean was gutted when it happened but Rebekah had reached the end of her tether and left him.

"She feels like she is better off by herself and seeing as Dean thinks he\'s some kind of stud, he\'ll no doubt manage to charm someone else into being his girlfriend in no time."

The 41-year-old soap star started dating Rebekah - who is 16 years younger than him - shortly after his breakup from childhood sweetheart Sarah Burge, with whom he has two children.

The report of the split comes after Dean claimed he gets mistaken for 39-year-old male model David Gandy, and joked that the Scottish hunk would be lucky to share a resemblance to him.

He recently said: "He wishes he looked like me... No, I\'m joking.

"It\'s not just the fact he\'s a model, he\'s a very handsome guy, he\'s not a young model, as in he\'s kind of distinguished and the sheer fact that people even think that we remotely look alike, I\'ll take that one definitely for the team. I think it\'s great."
