Skins star Kaya Scodelario broke up with her Shameless actor boyfriend after he threw a trainee plumber from his bonnet during a late-night row, a court heard.

The claim was made today in the High Court, where actor Elliott Tittensor is being sued for 300,000 by 'victim' Oliver Flint - who was left brain-damaged and blind in one eye by the 2010 incident.

Mr Flint and the actor, who played Carl Gallagher in Channel 4's Shameless, clashed outside a McDonald's in Kentish Town, North London.

The actor accused Mr Flint of 'groping' his girlfriend Ms Scodelario then jumping on his bonnet, which prompted him to flee the scene while she was still in the fast food restaurant.

Kaya Scodelario has since said the distressing incident prompted her break-up with the Shameless star three years later, according to the trainee plumber's lawyer.

Barrister Andrew Roy made the claim as he questioned the actor's version of events, citing that 'to the best of Ms Scodelario's knowledge' the attack had 'caused her relationship with Mr Tittensor to end'.
