Billi Mucklow dotes over children in new pic - after ex Andy Carroll's holiday with new girlfriend Lou Teasdale
Billi Mucklow has subtly hit out at her ex, Andy Carroll, while he's on holiday with his new flame, Lou Teasdale. It comes after it was revealed last month that the couple, who got married in 2022, had quietly parted ways in July. Billi and Andy are parents to three children: Alro, eight, Wolf, five, and Marvel, three. Footballer Andy is also a father to Emilie Rose, 14, and Lucas, 13.
In the adorable snap, Billi was surrounded by her children, who were either smiling or pulling funny faces and posing for the camera. "I love you so much," she captioned it. The former couple began dating in 2013 and got engaged the following year. In a statement, Andy confirmed: "Billi and I have privately separated earlier this year and we are underway with our divorce proceedings."
Earlier this week, lovebirds Andy and Lou were spotted living it up at Mallorca's Balneario Beach Club, sipping cocktails and Diet Coke for her birthday. They also treated themselves to ice cream and snacks from the comfort of their beach beds. In one photo, Lou was pictured jumping on Andy's back as the two relaxed in the shallow waters in the sea. Their relationship was first reported earlier this month.

Billi, on the other hand, is said to be nursing a broken heart over their split and is apparently gutted at how swiftly Andy has found new romance following their July break up. A source told the Mail Online: "Billi was upset the marriage ended, but accepts it had run its course. They had plenty of ups and downs but she doesn't regret a thing, because it's given her three children and two more from Andy's previous relationship, who she's grown incredibly close to and still live with her full-time.
"Andy is currently based in France, but comes back to see them as much as possible. Billi will continue bringing up Emilie Rose and Lucas." Regarding Andy's new relationship, the source added: "It was a shock for Billi, given they only split months previously. It left her blindsided initially but he's single now, so he can do what he wants."
Andy and Billi's love story began back in 2013 and they were quick to get engaged the following year. The couple made things official in July 2022 with a beautiful wedding ceremony. Fast forward just two years, and they're in the middle of divorce proceedings. Throughout their 11-year romance, they made headlines for numerous controversies, including a scandal involving Andy's stag do escapades in Dubai, which nearly derailed their nuptials.
