It came just two months after The Sun revealed how sports star Andy and former TOWIE alum Billi, 37, were set to divorce, following two turbulent years of marriage.

Andy, 36, then went Instagram official with his romance with celeb make-up artist Lou Teasdale, 41, in October, with the lovebirds flaunting their romance in a recent trip to Ibiza.

Yet the property transaction, with the huge home now under offer, will no doubt be positive news for the footballer moving forward.

Andy, now with French side Bordeaux, bought the six-bed house in Essex from singer Sir Rod Stewart five years ago for £4.1million.

It is set in 25 acres and boasts a pool, tennis court, boating lake and football pitch.

The estate agents branded the pad an “impressive Grade II listed country house in a spectacular setting with far reaching panoramic views.”

A source previously opened up on mum of three Billi’s hurt and her reluctance for Andy to now arrive at the property unnannounced.

They said: “Billi has been left hurt and blind-sided that Andy appears to have moved on so quickly with Lou. It feels very public and embarrassing, especially as they only split in summer.

“Billi has a close-knit family and they have been left livid with Andy over his lack of loyalty, but are rallying around her to support her.

“Billi wants to cut ties but she doesn’t like the idea that Andy can come and go as he pleases.

“She realises the house is part of their divorce discussions, but she doesn’t want him turning up unannounced, particularly with his new girlfriend.”

HAPPY CHAPTER

The property sale follows The Sun’s exclusive reveal that the former Premier League ace had set his sights on getting wed – as he admitted his divorce from Billi Mucklow, 37, “can’t come quickly enough”.

His plans to propose to glam girl Lou came after he told pals he is “madly in love” with the stylist.

Recently, Lou had taken to her Instagram page to upload a series of snapshots showing her in Milan, Italy.

Andy was quick to comment: “WIFEY,” along with a ring Emoji.

Lou responded with a melting face Emoji to show her emotion.

Andy has also spoken candidly about his “different world” with Lou shortly after the pair jetted off on their first holiday together as a couple.

Pals now say he intends to wed former One Direction hair stylist Lou when his divorce with his baby mamma Billi is finalised.

A friend said: “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.”
