Andy Carroll looks completely smitten with bikini-clad girlfriend Lou Teasdale during Ibiza getaway as pair 'plan to marry after his divorce'
Andy Carroll and his girlfriend Lou Teasdale looked totally smitten as they shared a loved-up snap from their Ibiza getaway on Saturday. The footballer, 36, and makeup artist, 41, showed their romance is still going strong as they posed hand-in-hand by the beach. Lou turned heads in a tiny halter-neck bikini featuring a striking brown and blue fossil print that showed off her sensational figure. Meanwhile Andy looked stylish in bold leopard-print swim shorts and a beige abstract shirt. It comes amid swirling rumours that Andy is planning to propose to former One Direction hair stylist Lou once his divorce from ex-TOWIE star Billi Mucklow is finalised. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. A source told The Sun: 'Lou is already telling her mates they have discussed marriage and Andy thinks he's met his soulmate. 'Their connection is so strong, he has never felt like this before, he definitely wants to put a ring on it. 'It's been a whirlwind romance for both of them. But they're playing for keeps.' MailOnline has contacted Andy's reps for comment. The former Liverpool striker and his TOWIE star ex Billi confirmed their split last September after secretly separating earlier in the year having been together for 11 years. Weeks later Andy and Lou revealed their relationship and now he is reportedly set on tying the knot with her. The couple, who went Instagram official earlier this year, have started a fresh life in France following his transfer to fourth-tier club Bordeaux. Andy is said to be desperate to cut ties with Billi, with whom he shares three children, but she is pushing back on the divorce. A friend of the loved-up couple told The Sun: 'Andy is very close to proposing to Lou. They are madly in love. 'She is spending as much time as she can with him in France and Andy has never been happier. Lou is exactly what he needs because she is a calming influence on him and it's noticeable the change she's had on him to everyone around them. 'He's been telling friends his divorce can't come quick enough.' Andy and Billi have three children together - Arlo, Wolf, and Marvel Mae - and she also raises his two children Emilie Rose, 15, and Lucas, 14 from a previous relationship. In 2022, the star's wedding to Billi was almost called off when he was pictured drunkenly passed out in bed with two women in Dubai on his stag do. Billi forgave him after one of the women insisted nothing sexual happened. Less than two years after their nuptials, the couple's marriage was over - with Andy confirming they had started divorce proceedings after 'a hard few months for our family'. Andy said in a statement: 'Billi and I have privately separated earlier this year and we are under way with our divorce proceedings. Despite claims Billi was 'blindsided' by the relationship, friends of hers say that she 'knew Andy had someone' but she just wasn't sure who it was. Weeks later Andy made his relationship with Lou public in October for a Halloween party dressed as Taylor Swift and her boyfriend Travis Kelce. In January, Andy went Instagram official with Lou as he shared a cosy snap of the couple, writing: 'Happy people happy places.' It came after Lou shared a gallery of snaps of the couple spending time together over the Christmas period including a picture of the couple at Winter Wonderland. Andy seemingly took a swipe at Billi as he broke his silence over his new romance with Lou. Speaking to The Times, Andy gushed: 'I've seen a different world since I've been with Lou, This Christmas, like she does every Christmas, she will go with her daughter to look after the isolated elderly. 'She's a volunteer for Choose Love and a campaigner for LGBTQ+. She says to me, "Why would you hate anyone?" That's someone I need in my life.'

Tiger Woods makes major decision over relationship with Vanessa Trump after surprise romance announcement
TIGER WOODS is reportedly ready to move in with girlfriend Vanessa Trump after announcing their romance earlier this year. Woods, 49, is loved up with Donald Trump Jr's ex-wife, revealing "love is in the air" in an emotional announcement in March. 5 5 The pair had originally hoped to keep their relationship under wraps, but decided to go public after rumours of their romance began to swirl. And now it looks like they are ready to take things to the next level. According to the Mail Online, it is only a matter of time before Woods and Vanessa move in together at the golfer's $40million mansion. The pair currently live 20 minutes apart in the wealthy southern Florida enclave of Palm Beach. While Woods' children, Charlie, 16, and Sam, 17, attend the same school as Vanessa's eldest daughter Kai, 17 - the $38,595-a-year The Benjamin School. Despite not moving in together just yet, it's claimed that Vanessa, 47, already has a number of her belongings at Woods' house and knows all the security codes to get around the home. A source told the Mail: "She's got some clothes there, her toiletries, some cosmetics. "She'll throw in a load of laundry while she's there, or help herself to something in the fridge. You'd think she owns the place!" 5 Woods and Vanessa started out as friends before it became something more. The pair had reportedly been seeing each other since before Thanksgiving, but their relationship was not yet public. However, it's thought that many people around the school shared by their children were already aware of their romance before it hit the mainstream. Close friends of the couple told the US Sun last month Vanessa has helped Woods find joy again, having dealt with the aftermath of a near-fatal car crash in February 2021 and another injury stunting his return to golf glory. They said: "Tiger is so happy. He's reborn and full of positive energy." Woods, who was previously married to Elin Nordegren before their 2010 divorce following revelations of his infidelity, has been describesd as feeling like a lovesick teenager once again. Vanessa is no stranger to high-profile relationships, having been married to Donald Trump Jr between 2005 and 2018, with whom she shares five children. Former father in law President Donald Trump even gave his blessing for Vanessa's new relationship with Woods. He said: "I'm very happy for both, let them both be happy. They're both great." Woods was most recently in a seven-year relationship with nightclub manager Erica Herman, which ended three years ago. The golfing sensation hasn't played professional golf since last year and remains in a battle to return from his Achilles injury. 5 5

The former Love Island star, 28, stole the spotlight in her latest Instagram post on Friday, posing in a dreamy baby pink backless maxi dress. The romantic number featured delicate floral detailing at the neckline and a dramatic ruffled skirt. Going barefoot, Zara accessorised with a dainty beaded bracelet and silver earrings, letting her glowing tan from Costa Rica take centre stage. She wore her highlighted locks in soft beach waves and completed the look with a glamorous makeup palette.

She captioned the snaps: 'Me in a dress.' It comes after Zara and Louis couldn't keep their hands off each other during their romantic getaway in sun-soaked Costa Rica. The reality star, who was reportedly flown out first class by the One Direction star, 33, looked smitten as he sweetly kissed her on the cheek before giving her bottom a squeeze. Zara showed off her toned physique in a white bandeau top and low-rise trousers, with a green bikini underneath, and carried her belongings in a Loewe basket bag. Meanwhile, Louis looked stylish in an orange Burberry T-shirt and white shorts as he puffed on a cigarette. The couple had a playful chat outside of a restaurant before jumping on a quad bike and heading off to explore. Just days earlier, the pair were seen smooching at Banana Beach Restaurant after going public with their romance following her split from Sam Thompson at the start of this year. Zara showed off her bronzed physique in a white co-ord for the date night. The look featured a crop top and skirt which flashed a glimpse of a trim midriff and she completed the summery ensemble with statement gold earrings. Meanwhile Louis, who is reportedly recording his new album on the island, opted for a causal yellow T-shirt as he sat close to Zara while the couple lovingly gazing through their holiday snaps. The pair shared a giggle as they chatted intently while soaking up the tropical sunshine. Earlier this month, the couple were swamped by his fans in Costa Rica, an encounter which was caught on camera, as he was asked for selfies. One fan then asked Zara if she wanted to be in the picture with her and the singer. Dressed casually in shorts, an oversized shirt and a baseball cap, Zara responded: 'You guys get a picture. Don't worry about me, just get one with him.' Louis' sister Lottie, 26, recently revealed the family welcomed Zara into the fold while speaking about the relationship for the first time. She told OK!

Lottie, who shares son Lucky, two, and daughter Flossie, five months, with her fiancé Lewis Burton, also hinted Zara might soon by on babysitting duty. Asked if the couple would be helping out she joked: 'Hopefully, yeah.' As well as Lottie, Louis is also an older brother to twins Phoebe and Daisy, 21. His other sister Félicité tragically passed away at just 18 in 2019 after an accidental drug overdose. Last week Zara shared stunning snaps of the Costa Rican sunset amid her trip with Louis just days after they went Instagram official. A source told The Sun: 'Louis and Zara are going from strength to strength. He got his team to organise her first-class travel from London to Costa Rica over the weekend. 'It meant Zara was unable to attend the TV Baftas but she is keen to spend as much time with Louis as possible. He's been out in Costa Rica for a few weeks recording his album and is keen to show her the sights.'

EXCLUSIVE The TRUTH about Samie Elishi and Sam Thompson's relationship amid whirlwind romance
Samie Elishi and Sam Thompson are loving spending time together amid their blossoming romance. The Love Island star, 25, is currently soaking up the sun in Mykonos with fellow stars Sophie Piper and Maura Higgins for a brand trip with Space NK. Meanwhile Sam is back home preparing for both Soccer Aid and his latest challenge which will see the star travel a mammoth 260-mile journey on both bike and foot to deliver the Soccer Aid matchball to its new home in Old Trafford. The distance has resulted in split rumours, but a source close to the couple told MailOnline: 'Any suggestion that Sam and Samie have split up is untrue. 'They're loving spending time together and always make the most of off days between their busy schedules.' MailOnline has contacted Sam and Samie's representatives for comment. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the Daily Mail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'They're loving spending time together and always make the most of off days between their busy schedules', a source told MailOnline Elsewhere Sam's ex Zara McDermott has been packing on the PDA with her new boyfriend Louis Tomlinson during a romantic holiday to Costa Rica. The pair were spotted kissing at the modest Banana Beach Restaurant which overlooks the ocean. Sam first met Samie, who appeared on Love Island in 2023 and returned to the All Stars series this year, through his presenting role on spinoff, Aftersun. Samie previously broke her silence on her new romance with Sam, after the couple attended the swanky celebration held at Bacchanalia in London's Mayfair where they confirmed the romance by packing on the PDA outside the venue. Samie spoke about the blossoming relationship for the first time during an appearance on the Chloe Mediumship podcast. The show is hosted by a psychic medium and in the episode, Samie revealed how she's previously had negative gut feelings in past relationships. She explained: 'I've had gut feelings with guys before. I've had a couple of relationships where I've known it was never it. Like this is gonna come to an end, I'll have something telling me every day it's coming to an end, this isn't for you. 'You put it to the back of your mind and then you start noticing the chaos increase. It's like the universe saying I'm gonna blow you both up if you just do not separate. Then I'm like if I only I listened all those months ago when I got that first message.' Then, host Chloe asked: 'Obviously, you don't have to talk about it too much but the guy you're currently speaking to, do you have that gut feeling? Like do you think it's gonna be really good?' Keeping her cards close to her chest, the former Love Islander replied: 'There's been no bad stuff at the minute so yeah I suppose it is all positive right now. It's early days.' Sam and his ex-girlfriend Zara split in January, with Zara quickly moving on with One Direction star Louis Tomlinson. On his Staying Relevant podcast with Pete Wicks, Sam also revealed he's gone on his first date since his split from Zara, after he reportedly spent a romantic Easter weekend with Samie. Hinting towards his heartbreak over Zara, he said he'd gone through a 'pretty tough time', but that he was finally 'comfortable in my own skin again'. He told Pete: 'I feel like I'm ready to get out there. I feel like I'm at a stage now where I feel confident enough that I can start approaching females. 'I feel good, things are really really nice at the moment. And I feel like I'm happy. There's no more brave faces', causing Pete to proudly declare: 'Sam's ready to date!' Next week Sam will begin a 260-mile challenge in aid of Soccer Aid for UNICEF, transporting a football by running and cycling from Stamford Bridge in west London to Manchester's Old Trafford stadium in time for the Soccer Aid match on June 15. The challenge, which will be followed by the ITV documentary Sam Thompson's Match Ball Mission, is a savvy commission from the broadcaster. Because Sam will be taking part in the star-studded match at Old Trafford alongside none other than Zara's new beau, Louis. The football match is already the talk of ITV corridors, with all eyes sure to be on the two love rivals as they go head to head on the pitch.
