Luke Littler’s beauty consultant girlfriend, 21, posts emotional message to darts star, 16, ahead of semi-final

LUKE LITTLER’S girlfriend sent a loving message to the darts star as his incredible run at the World Darts Championship continued.

Littler, 16, made history on New Year’s Day as he became the youngest ever player to reach the semi-finals with a 5-1 win over Brendan Dolan.

After booking his spot in the last four, the Warrington wonderkid went over to partner Eloise, 21, before he gave her a hug and kiss.

Eloise then took to Instagram to heap praise on the boy wonder.

She posted a picture of the pair of them with a filter that enlarged their mouths.

And Eloise accompanied that with a snap of Littler being interviewed on stage following his sensational victory.

The images also came with a loving message that read: “The dream carries on!

“Incredibly proud of you.”

“Luke the Nuke” is fast-becoming the biggest name in darts as his meteoric rise gathers yet more momentum.

He is now 13/8 FAVOURITE to win the title after Scott Williams knocked out three-time winner Michael van Gerwen in a huge upset on Monday evening.

Littler’s sister Caitlin also shared some emotional words for her brother

And beauty consultant Eloise, who was wearing the same blue shirt as Littler at Alexandra Palace, was not the only person close to the darts star to share an emotional message.

The teenager’s sister Caitlin also posted some kind words for her brother.

She said: “The dream continues. Unbelievably proud of you.”

Littler, 16, shared the same message to his mum Lisa after he beat Matt Campbell in the third round.

He has dropped just four sets on his way to the semi-finals as he prepares to take on 2018 champion Rob Cross, 33, on Tuesday night.

But he has already beaten one former winner on his way to the latter stages.

Five-time champion Raymond van Barneveld was swatted aside 4-1 by Littler – who idolises the Dutchman – in the fourth round.

Van Barneveld hailed Littler after their clash as he labelled him a “dartbot”.

Littler then overcame a bizarre scene during his match with Dolan as he appeared to be stung by a wasp while on stage.

But that did not deter him as he put on a show for the adoring crowd, teasing them midway through a Big Fish attempt.

Littler turned to the crowd to rile them up before a failed bullseye shot – which would have completed a brilliant 170 checkout.

If Littler comes past Cross, he will face either Williams or pre-tournament favourite Luke Humphries in Wednesday’s final.
