Luke Littler's fury over 'new mystery girlfriend' being discovered after brutal message to ex

Luke Littler made history on Friday night by becoming the youngest ever winner of the World Darts Championship. The 17-year-old star beat Michael van Gerwen 7-3 in a one-sided final at the Ally Pally in London.

The victory came a year after he lost to Luke Humphries in the 2024 decider, which was his debut year in the tournament. Littler was in tears after throwing the winning dart to claim what a lot of people expect will be the first of many world titles. Over the past 12 months, Littler has won 10 titles, including the Premier League and Grand Slam of Darts.

He was also named BBC Young Sports Personality of the Year and narrowly missed out on the main award, finishing second behind Olympic gold medallist Keeley Hodgkinson. Littler's net worth has exploded over the past 12 months and his World Darts Championship win pocketed him £500,000.

2024 also saw the darts star experience some big changes in his personal life, having split with his girlfriend Eloise Milburn.

The beauty consultant was a constant feature at Alexandra Palace last year, attending her partner's matches and supporting him as he achieved overnight fame. But the couple - who met while playing FIFA on Xbox - soon saw their relationship face criticism due to their five-year age gap, with Eloise, then 21, being targeted by trolls.

Both Littler and her mother Amanda condemned the "vile" and "disgusting" abuse she received, with the darts star coming out in support for his girlfiriend. However, six months later, Littler ended the relationship via text message, a decision that reportedly caught Eloise off guard and was described as "brutal" and "out of the blue".

Again, Eloise received abuse from trolls in the wake of the news, with Littler releasing a statement that read: "Everyone needs to stop sending hate towards Eloise saying it's her fault this and that. I myself split up with Eloise and everyone just needs to give us some time, no need for everyone to message her and give her grief."

However, it appears that Littler has now moved on, with the teenager seemingly accidentally revealing that he was in a new relationship. Known for his love of video games, Littler was taking part in a gaming live-stream with popular YouTuber Angry Ginge when a female voice was picked up on his microphone.

The voice said "I'm going to try and get some sleep because I am so tired," quickly leading his friends and fans to speculate that he had someone new in his life.

"Who the f*** is that? Who's that Luke? Who's that Luke?," said Angry Ginge. "He's had a rotter there. Luke's had a rotter. Let her get to bed, Luke, come on."

While Littler saw the funny side, he didn't seem happy that he had been rumbled, as he replied: "Your chat is going mad. F*** off

"If someone has screen recorded that, it is in the papers in the morning. Yep, well played. Why is the volume all the way up, you f***ing idiot?"
