Luke Littler insists he and his girlfriend Eloise Milburn have no intention of splitting up, despite the negative reaction their relationship has attracted.
The teenage darts sensation narrowly missed out on becoming the youngest world champion in the sport’s history on Wednesday night, when Luke Humphries produced a stunning comeback to clinch a 7-4 victory.
As she had been through the majority of the tournament, Milburn, an amateur darts player herself, had been cheering on her 16-year-old partner alongside his parents and sister.
The pair are understood to have been dating for the last few months having met while playing FIFA online.
Ahead of last night’s final, Eloise’s mum hit out at the trolls who had accused her daughter of being a ‘money grabber’, and Littler, himself, insists the pair see no reason why they shouldn’t continue to date.
Speaking to Sky News, he said: ‘We’re going to stick together now, obviously we have been for the last few months so we just going to stick together.
‘Whether anyone likes it or not, we’re not bothered.’
