Andy Carroll blasted by Billi Mucklow's family after couple splits

Billi Mucklow's family are furious with her estranged husband Andy Carroll over the footballer's 'total lack of loyalty' towards her, MailOnline can reveal.

Her brother, another former reality star Sam, 32, who now runs a property construction firm, has cut ties completely with the former West Ham and Liverpool striker, 35, after he embarked on a new relationship with makeup artist Lou Teasdale, 41, in the wake of his marriage split with Billi, 36.

Sam believes Andy's actions are particularly harsh on Billi given she has brought up his two eldest children from a previous relationship - Emilie Rose, 15, and Lucas, 14 - as her own and will continue to do so despite the pair, who married in 2022, going their separate ways.

Insiders told MailOnline Billi's family are all privately fuming with Andy but Sam has been the most vocal and now wants nothing to do with the ex-England forward.

It comes as MailOnline can also reveal Andy's new partner Lou is desperate to avoid any confrontation with the Mucklows and has no intention of rubbing her new relationship in their faces.

A source told Mailonline: 'Sam is livid with Andy, he's lost a lot of respect for him.

'Billi has been a great mum to his two eldest kids, they're very much part of the family and she's brought them up as their own.

'So for Andy to treat her with such disdain, and move on so quickly with another woman after their split, is particularly hard to take.'

Mailonline has approached Billi's reps for comment.

Sam is the only member of the Mucklow family to unfollow Andy on Instagram, even his girlfriend Shelby Tribble - a former Towie star like himself and Billi - follows him, along with his mother Paula, father Stephen and sister Giorgie.

Andy recently unfollowed Sam, but continued to follow other members of the family, including Billi - who still follows him.

Andy and Lou made their first public appearance at a Halloween party last weekend in which they dressed up as Taylor Swift and her NFL star boyfriend, Travis Kelce.

They have previously been spotted together on a date in East London and on a beach in Mallorca celebrating influencer Lou's 41st birthday.

Former One Direction stylist Lou has yet to push her new relationship with Andy on social media out of respect for Billi, who was in a relationship with the ex-West Ham star for 11 years.

An insider said: 'Lou doesn't want any bad blood between Billi and her family.

'She's trying to be as respectful as possible.'

 Billi has taken her children on a sunshine holiday over half-term, where she was joined by sister Giorgie and Shelby.

She's posted a number of snaps on her Instagram enjoying her break, including a caption which read: 'Beach days are the best.'

While Andy and Lou were celebrating the latter's birthday at the exclusive beach club Balneario last month, Billi posted a snap of herself at home with her five children - Emilie Rose and Lucas, plus her three biological kids with the footballer - Alro, eight, Wolf, five, and Marvel, three.

The snap sparked messages of support in the comments section.

One follower said: 'And THAT is THE classiest response to Mr Carroll,' while another wrote: 'Love this response! You've got all you needed from him, your beautiful babies! Let someone else deal with the disrespect.'

Billi remains in the family home in Epping, Essex while Andy continues his football career in France, playing for Bordeaux in the fourth tier of the country's football league.

The Daily Mail revealed last month Billi is determined to keep the house as part of a multimillion pound divorce battle.

 A source said: ''Billi has no intention of speaking out until after her divorce is finalised. She is determined to get everything she can - including the house.

'Her dad Steve is also fuming and won't let her settle for anything less than she deserves.'

Billi and Andy confirmed their divorce last month after secretly separating earlier this year, having been together for 11 years.

Andy said in a statement: 'Billi and I have privately separated earlier this year and we are under way with our divorce proceedings.

'It has been a hard few months for our family and we continue to move forward amicably for our children.'

The build up to their 2022 nuptials was overshadowed by Andy's debauched stag do, when he was pictured lying in bed asleep next to glamorous bar manager Taylor Jane Wilkey in a Dubai hotel room.

Taylor also posed for snaps wearing one of his personalised bathrobes.

Andy flew to Dubai to gate-crashed Billi's hen do, but stayed on with his pals as she jetted back home.

Although she gave him a frosty reception upon his return, Billi forgave the striker and the wedding went ahead as planned.
