Andy Carroll has angered his ex-wife Billi Mucklow by flaunting his new relationship with Lou Teasdale on social media.
MailOnline can reveal that former TOWIE star Billi, 37, unfollowed the former Newcastle and Liverpool striker on Instagram over the festive period after growing tired of having her new romance “shoved in her face”, according to her friends.
Andy, 36, has shared numerous snaps and Stories of his new girlfriend on Instagram and Lou has done the same on her account, as their relationship continues to blossom.
But Billi, who shares three children with the former England striker, as well as being guardian to his two eldest children from a previous relationship, is fed up with Andy’s taunts.
A friend told MailOnline: ‘Billi has had enough. Knowing that your soon-to-be ex-husband is in a new relationship is bad enough, let alone having it thrown in your face on social media.
“At first she hoped the couple would show each other respect, but it becomes increasingly difficult when he flaunts his love interest and ventures to new and exciting places for everyone to see.”
Billi Mucklow has hit out at unfollowing her ex Andy Carroll for ‘pushing’ her new relationship with Lou Teasdale ‘in her face’ with constant social media posts.
Andy, 36, has shared numerous snaps and Stories of his new girlfriend on Instagram and Lou has done the same on her account, as their relationship continues to blossom.
MailOnline has contacted Billi’s representatives for comment.
Billi’s decision to unfollow her ex-husband, who now plays for Bordeaux in the French league’s fourth tier, comes after MailOnline revealed her brother Sam had cut ties with Andy over the “complete lack of loyalty” of the footballer towards his sister.
We told how Sam, a former TOWIE star like Billi, believed Andy moving on so quickly with another woman was particularly hard on Billi, especially as she continues to co-parent his two eldest children: Emilie Rose, 15, and Lucas, 14. as his own despite the division.
A source told Mailonline: ‘Sam is furious with Andy, he has lost a lot of respect for him.
‘Billi has been a great mother to her two eldest children, they are part of the family and she has raised them as if they were her own.
“So for Andy to treat her with such disdain and move on so quickly with another woman after their separation is particularly difficult to take.”
Andy shared snaps from a pre-Christmas trip to Mallorca with Lou, former stylist for boy band One Direction, as well as her joining him on nights out with friends.
Meanwhile, Lou, 41, shared snaps of herself on Christmas Day with Andy, as well as at a Megève ski resort in France.

Lou posted a slideshow of her with Andy to mark his 36th birthday earlier this week, calling the footballer “my favorite person I’ve ever met”.

She also posted a slideshow of herself with Andy to mark his 36th birthday earlier this week, calling the footballer “my favorite person I’ve ever met” and tagging him in the snaps so they can be seen on her account.
Billi has yet to comment on her split from Carroll, but she has posted numerous family photos that have received positive comments from her followers.
In a post of Billi and her five children posted on Christmas Day, one follower wrote: “You are a role model for all women, very worthy, Merry Christmas and peace to you and all your beautiful children.”
Another commented: ‘Merry Christmas @billimucklow with everything that’s happened you’ve acted with nothing but class wishing you all the best with your babies.’
Billi and Andy confirmed their divorce in September after secretly splitting months earlier after being together for 11 years.
Andy said in a statement: ‘Billi and I privately separated earlier this year and are underway with our divorce process.
“It has been a difficult few months for our family and we continue to move forward amicably for our children.”
Shortly after releasing the statement, Andy’s relationship with Lou came to light and the couple made their first public appearance at a Halloween party where they dressed up as Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce.
Meanwhile, Lou, 41, shared snaps of herself on Christmas Day with Andy, as well as at a Megève ski resort in France (pictured).
Andy and Billi married in June 2022 in a lavish ceremony in Hampshire (pictured) and confirmed their divorce in September after secretly separating months earlier.
Billi and Andy share sons Arlo, nine, Wolf, six, and Marvel Mae, four, as well as daughter and son from a previous marriage, Emilie Rose, 15, and Lucas, 14 (pictured all together).
The relationship was said to have left Billi “shocked”.
Andy and Billie, who share sons Alro, nine, Wolf, six, and Marvel, four, saw their 2022 nuptials overshadowed by the headlines when the former West Ham star was photographed lying in bed asleep next to the glamorous bar manager Taylor Jane Wilkey.
Taken in a Dubai hotel room, Taylor also posed for photos wearing one of her custom bathrobes.
Andy flew to Dubai to crash Billi’s bachelorette party, but stayed with his friends while she returned home.
Although given a cold reception upon his return, Billi forgave the striker and the wedding took place as planned.
Billi remains at the family home in Epping, Essex, on their £4.1million property which they bought from Rod Stewart in 2019.
The 18th-century house features 25 acres of land, a football pitch and a lake, and The Daily Mail revealed in September that Billi is determined to keep the house as part of a multimillion-dollar divorce battle.
However, the mansion has already been put up for sale.
