Heroes star Kristen Bell has split with her movie producer boyfriend of five years Kevin Mann. The couple separated amicably recently because they were "growing apart", according to Mann's mother Ellen. She tells Star magazine, "(They) realized that ending the relationship would be best for both of them. There was nobody else involved."

The development will come as good news to Bell's Heroes co-star Masi Oka, who recently admitted he's got a crush on the pretty blonde.

He said, "Kristin is an absolutely amazing individual both on and off screen. We're great friends. Everyone has a crush on her."
