The Premier League Darts final on Thursday night saw a thrilling showdown between two rising stars, but it was Luke Humphries who came out on top, narrowly beating Luke Littler 11-8.
Littler, who has been making waves in the darts world, missed out on the massive £275,000 prize pot by just a small margin.
Support From Family and New Friend Faith Millar in the Crowd
While the tension was high on stage, Littler had strong support in the audience.
Alongside his parents, his new female friend Faith Millar was spotted cheering him on at the O2 Arena.
Faith, who has become close to the 18-year-old darts sensation, watched intently as Littler fought hard to claw his way back in the match.
A Close Rivalry That’s Developing Between Littler and Humphries
This wasn’t the first time these two Lukes faced off at the Premier League.
Last year, Littler stunned fans by winning against Humphries, announcing his arrival as a major force in the darts scene.
But this time, Humphries managed to edge out the victory, reminding everyone just how competitive this rivalry has become.
Littler’s Social Life and Friendship With Faith Millar
Off the oche, Littler’s been balancing his rising career with a blossoming friendship.
Recently, he was seen out enjoying a night on the town with Faith and friends, sharing a photo from a pink-lit booth where they looked relaxed and happy together.
The pair have been spending a lot of time together since they met earlier this year.
Keeping It Casual Despite Close Bond
Although they’re often spotted together, both Luke and Faith are clear about keeping things friendly.
Neither has publicly acknowledged any romantic relationship, insisting their bond is purely platonic.
Faith, a 19-year-old eyelash beauty specialist from nearby Wigan, has quickly become part of Littler’s inner circle, even attending public events with him.
A New Chapter After Past Relationships
This close friendship comes after Littler’s split from his previous girlfriend Eloise Milburn last year.
Unlike his past relationship, which drew attention partly because of their age difference, Littler seems more cautious about exposing his personal life to the public now.
Faith’s age and shared local roots appear to make their friendship feel natural and less scrutinized.
Fans and Family Welcoming Faith Into Littler’s Life
Faith isn’t just a friend; she’s already met Littler’s family and joined him at sponsor events, showing how comfortably she fits into his world.
A source close to the pair described their friendship as strong and genuine, highlighting how much they enjoy spending time together.
The Young Darts Star’s Focus Remains on the Game
Despite the social buzz, Littler continues to focus on his darts career, handling the pressures of competition and public attention with maturity.
His close supporters, including Faith and his family, provide a steady presence as he navigates the highs and lows of professional sport.
What’s Next for Luke Littler After the Premier League Final
Though he didn’t take home the trophy this time, Littler’s future looks bright.
With his talent and growing fanbase, plus a strong support system, many expect him to keep rising in the darts world.
And with Faith by his side as a loyal friend, he’s got a solid foundation both on and off the stage.
