Footballer Andy Carroll was recently seen enjoying a day out with makeup artist Lou Teasdale in Spitalfields, London.
This public outing marks the first time the pair has been spotted together following Carroll’s recent split from his wife, Billi Mucklow.
Just last week, the 35-year-old footballer confirmed his separation from Mucklow, a reality star from The Only Way is Essex (TOWIE).
The couple, who got married in a grand ceremony in June 2022, has decided to divorce after two rocky years of marriage.
Carroll and Teasdale’s Growing Bond
In the days following the split announcement, rumors began to swirl that Carroll and Teasdale, 40, had become quite close.
It’s been reported that the former Premier League star has been spending increasing amounts of time with the celebrity makeup artist.
They were even spotted sharing an intimate lunch in the heart of London shortly after news of Carroll’s separation went public.
Teasdale, a friend of singer Harry Styles, appeared comfortable in Carroll’s company as the two enjoyed drinks together at the market.
Carroll’s ex-wife, Billi, is reportedly aware of his budding friendship with Lou, with sources claiming she has been openly discussing it with her friends.
It seems Teasdale has even visited Carroll in Bordeaux, where he currently plays for French football team FC Girondins de Bordeaux.
A Surprising Connection
According to insiders, the pair has been seen together on multiple occasions, and despite their seemingly different worlds—Carroll, a former football star known for his controversies, and Teasdale, a creative figure in the fashion and beauty industry—they seem to get along very well.
One source commented on their connection, saying: “They’re from different backgrounds, but they really hit it off.
Andy’s had his share of troubles, but he’s still a handsome guy, so it’s no shock that Lou enjoys his company.”
Though it’s unclear how they initially met, they do follow each other on Instagram, and Carroll also follows some of Lou’s friends, including One Direction’s Louis Tomlinson and his sister Lottie.
Lou’s private Instagram reportedly contains photos of the pair together, adding fuel to the dating rumors.
A Look Back at Carroll’s Marriage with Billi Mucklow
Carroll and Mucklow’s separation comes after a turbulent two years of marriage.
The couple famously tied the knot in a lavish ceremony at the Four Seasons in Hampshire.
However, their relationship hit the rocks when Carroll was infamously photographed passed out between two blondes during his bachelor party in Dubai, just days before the wedding.
In a recent statement, Carroll addressed the separation, saying, “Billi and I privately separated earlier this year, and we are currently in the process of getting a divorce.
It’s been a tough time for the family, but we’re committed to moving forward amicably for the sake of our children.”
The former couple shares three kids: Arlo, 8, Wolf, 5, and their youngest daughter, Marvel, who is 3.
Carroll also has two older children, Emilie Rose, 14, and Lucas, 13, from a previous relationship.
Lou Teasdale’s Life and Relationships
Meanwhile, Lou Teasdale has her own family ties. She shares a daughter, Lux, 13, with her ex, chef Tom Aitken.
Lux, who has gained fame on social media with over a million Instagram followers, frequently shares glimpses of her life online.
Teasdale had previously dated SAS: Who Dares Wins star Jay Morton, but the couple split last year.
Over the years, there have also been rumors of a romantic connection between Teasdale and One Direction’s Harry Styles, but she has always maintained that they are just close friends.
Her daughter, Lux, even refers to Styles as “Uncle Harry.”
Teasdale was also a close friend of the late Caroline Flack, staying by her side the night before Flack tragically took her own life in 2020.
What’s Next for Andy and Lou?
For now, it seems Andy Carroll and Lou Teasdale are enjoying each other’s company, though it’s still unclear where their relationship might go from here.
As Carroll moves forward from his marriage to Billi Mucklow, all eyes are on this budding new connection with Teasdale.
Only time will tell what’s next for this surprising duo.
