Former TOWIE star Billi Mucklow, 37, has shared holiday snaps in a blue bikini, showcasing her transformed figure following her split from ex-England footballer Andy Carroll last September. The mother of three has been praised by fans for her appearance, with many dubbing it a 'revenge body'. A source close to Billi told OK! magazine: 'She’s had a really tough time since the split – there was a lot of pain – but she’s moving on with her life and is definitely in her revenge body era.'
The source added that Billi has focused on fitness and lost weight, partly due to the 'heartache diet', and is now looking and feeling like her old self. Family and friends have commented that she has never looked better. Billi, who is a devoted mum to her three children with Carroll—Arlo, 10, Wolf, seven, and Marvel, four—as well as his two children from a previous relationship, was seen relaxing at a luxury villa in the snaps.
Fans rushed to compliment her, with one commenting, 'Let’s show him what he’s missing, darling.' Another said, 'Andy, what on earth were you thinking?' while a third wrote, 'Best revenge is a good body. You are totally winning.' Meanwhile, Andy, 36, has faced headlines for the wrong reasons, with police reportedly called to 'heated' arguments with his new girlfriend, make-up artist Lou Teasdale, during their holiday in Mykonos. No arrests were made.
According to the source, Billi is aware of the reports but wants 'nothing to do with it', adding, 'All she’s concerned about is her kids’ happiness, she has well and truly moved on. As she says, Andy’s not her problem any more.' Andy and Lou released a joint statement acknowledging the 'heated discussion' but insisting it was 'blown out of proportion'. They said, 'We are very happy, in love and looking forward to our future together.'
Billi's split from Carroll ended an 11-year relationship, and while she was initially heartbroken, she has been praised for picking herself up and focusing on her children and herself. Fans have suggested she make a reality TV comeback or launch a fitness range, hailing her as a 'superwoman' for bouncing back from heartache.
