Luke Littler was accidentally caught out on a recent livestream when an unidentified female voice was heard – and the teen darts sensation was left seething
Luke Littler, the newly-crowned king of darts, has it all: fame, fortune, a trophy cabinet to die for, and hold the front page, a potential mystery girlfriend?
‘The Nuke’ blasted his way into the history books by becoming the youngest champ to ever lift the World Darts Championship trophy on Friday after he demolished Michael van Gerwen 7-3 at Alexandra Palace. The 17-year-old sensation has skyrocketed to the top of the sport after just over a year on the senior circuit, leaving fans and rivals alike gobsmacked.
Flashback to last year’s tournament, and Littler’s then-girlfriend, Eloise Milburn, was spotted in the crowd rooting for him. The couple called it quits in the summer, but if rumours are to be believed, Littler didn’t stay single for long.
While he was livestreaming with the YouTuber Morgan Burtwistle, aka ‘angryginge13’, an elusive female voice piped up, telling Littler: “I’m gonna try and get some sleep because I’m so tired”. The internet went wild with rumours that the youngster might have a new beau, especially after Burtwistle quizzed: “Who the f*** is that? Who’s that Luke? Who’s that Luke?”
Littler, caught like a deer in headlights, could only muster a sheepish “f*** sake”, while Burtwistle and the rest of the streaming crew cracked up. “Let her get to bed, Luke, come on,” joked Burtwistle, who had been seen cheering from the sidelines during Littler’s epic run at the 2025 World Championship.
Littler was a good sport about the teasing, laughing it off with: “Your chat is going mad, F*** off. If someone has screen-recorded that, it’s in the papers in the morning. Yep, well played. Why’s the volume all the way up, you f***ing idiot?”
Despite the clips making rounds online, Littler hasn’t confirmed who the mystery voice is or if it signals that he’s back in a relationship. Fans were hoping for an update when the World Championship kicked off last month, but their curiosity was left to linger as Littler had only pals and family members showing up to watch him throw his arrows at Ally Pally.

There was quite a buzz about Littler’s fling with ex-flame Eloise, who was older than him by four years. The two met in 2023 while playing FIFA 23 online, just before the 2024 World Championship rolled around, and clicked thanks to their shared passion for both football and darts.
The fanfare surrounding Eloise, a budding darts player herself, could be why Littler’s been tight-lipped about any new love interests. After all, he’s been under the national spotlight for a solid month.
But now that darts’ biggest competition is in the rear-view mirror, Littler, and his ‘mystery missus’, might be afforded some well-deserved privacy.
