Billi Mucklow has revealed she’s getting the tattoo of ex-husband Andy Carroll’s initials removed on her rib – five months after confirming their divorce.

The former TOWIE star secretly separated from the footballer earlier last year, having been together for 11 years.

The pair confirmed their divorce in September 2024 with him saying in a statement: ‘Billi and I have privately separated earlier this year and we are under way with our divorce proceedings.’

Billi decided to cut ties with Andy during the holiday season, reportedly frustrated with him constantly flaunting his new relationship with new girlfriend Lou Teasdale. 

And months after their separation, Billi has decided to get rid of the inking – which displayed Andy and also their son Arlo’s initials.

Billi and her estranged husband Andy are parents to Arlo, nine, Wolf, seven, and four-year-old Marvel.

In 2016, Billi proudly showed off her new tattoo in a post workout Instagram snap on Friday as she flashed her midriff in a crop top and leggings.

The blonde beauty frequently shares post-workout snaps with her most recent showing her posing side on and showing off the initials: ‘AC’. 

Adding to her collection, the reality starlet also has the word Namaste tattooed on her other side in a nod to her yoga roots – yet the latest ink is in homage to the West Ham ace and their tot.

Andy has shared numerous snaps and Stories featuring his new girlfriend on social media and Lou has done likewise on her account, as their relationship continues to flourish.

However, Billi is thought to have had enough of his jestering and decided to remove him off social media. 

A friend told MailOnline: ‘Billi’s just had enough. Knowing your soon-to-be ex-husband is in a new relationship is bad enough, let alone it being shoved in your face on social media.

‘At first she hoped the pair would show respect to each other, but it’s become increasingly hard when he’s parading his love interest and ventures to new and exciting places for everybody to see.’

MailOnline approached Billi’s reps for comment at the time.

Billi’s decision to unfollow her estranged husband, who now plays for Bordeaux in the fourth tier of the French league, comes after MailOnline revealed her brother Sam has cut ties with Andy over the footballer’s ‘total lack of loyalty’ towards his sister.

Sam, a former TOWIE star like Billi, believed Andy moving on so quickly with another woman was particularly harsh on Billi, especially as she continues to co-parent his two eldest children – Emilie Rose, 15, and Lucas, 14 – as her own despite the split.

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.’

Billi and Andy confirmed their divorce in September after secretly separating months earlier, 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.’

Billi and Andy share children, Arlo, nine, Wolf, six, and Marvel Mae, four, as well as his daughter and son from a previous marriage, Emilie Rose, 15, and Lucas, 14 (pictured all together)

Shortly after releasing the statement, Andy’s relationship with Lou came to light and the pair made their first public appearance at a Halloween party where they dressed up as Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce.

The relationship was said to have left Billi ‘blindsided’.

Andy and Billie saw their 2022 nuptials overshadowed by headlines when the ex-West Ham star was pictured lying in bed asleep next to glamorous bar manager Taylor Jane Wilkey. 

Taken in a Dubai H๏τel room, Taylor also posed for snaps wearing one of his personalised bathrobes.

Andy flew to Dubai to gate-crash 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.
