She became a mother in 2018.

And Kara Tointon is relishing her latest role, sharing a series of sweet Instagram photos on Monday as she makes the most of extra family time during lockdown.

The ex EastEnders actress picked flowers with her son Frey, 16 months, in the snaps taken by her fiancé Marius Jensen,

Dressed in a floral print midi dress and sandals, Kara, 36, made the most of the sunshine over the weekend and headed out for a walk with her family.

The photos show the actress beaming as she hands her sweet son flowers she’s picked before the pair sit down on the grass together.

In the caption Kara joked that her fiancé Marius had managed to capture some sweet mother son moments, writing: ‘@thejensenmethod takes an occasional good photo.’ 

Kara and Marius made their first public appearance at the Wimbledon tennis championships in the summer of 2017.

The couple are toying with the idea of getting married in Marius’ native Norway later this year. 

Speaking during an appearance on ITV’s Lorraine last year, the actress revealed the couple will be tying the knot sometime in 2020.

She said: ‘Well, (the wedding) is in the schedule. Do we do it in Norway? That would be nice, but it’s getting everyone over there. Yeah, it’s in the plan.’

The pair became parents for the first time in November 2018, when they welcomed son Frey into the world.

Speaking about the experience of starting a family with Marius, Kara said: ‘He [Marius] is rather lovely, isn’t he? I did well. 

‘They always say there’s no right time to have kids, if you want it you just have to get on with it. We all muck in, I love it.’
