HeartBreaking News: Dart Super Star Luke Littler Broke Up With His Girlfriend Due To…
Luke Littler’s girlfriend’s mother has spoken up for their relationship in the face of “vile” abuse directed towards them by trolls because of their five-year age difference.
Littler, who at 16 just missed out on being the youngest World Darts Championship winner ever, has been dating 21-year-old Eloise Milburn for six weeks. The two are said to have met while playing FIFA on Xbox.
Just a few weeks ago, he was a 66/1 underdog, yet on Wednesday night in London’s Alexandra Palace, he secured his spot in the World Darts Championship finals, only to be defeated by Luke Humphries.
This has brought attention to their affair and prompted a lot of criticism, according to Amanda Milburn, Miss Milburn’s mother.
Mrs. Millburn responds angrily to the insults, claiming that “Eloise has been accused of all sorts.” She denies that her daughter was only with Littler for his wealth and notoriety, calling the remarks a “total pack of disgusting lies.”

“A lot of terrible things about my kid have been shared online, and my husband Phil and I are furious about it.
“For any of these reasons, she isn’t with him. She is with him because she likes him; she is not concerned about his wealth or notoriety. That’s all there is to it,” she said to the Daily Mail.
“Reading these remarks, many of which are from ‘darts enthusiasts,’ hurts us a lot.
“These nasty individuals are painting my daughter as all of these things, but she is none of them. People should let them go on since she is a sweet young woman in a fresh relationship.
She hasn’t met Littler yet, but she and her husband have chatted on the phone.
Although she joked that her daughter would “kill” her for speaking out of turn, she also implied that since things are going so well between the two, marriage may be in the works in the future.
A minor obstacle on the route of genuine love is the geographical separation; Littler resides in Warrington, Cheshire, while Milburn resides in Hersham with her parents.
