TOWIE star Billi Mucklow fears footballer Andy Carroll was cheating on her before they split.
Pals say she suspects the ex-Newcastle and Liverpool striker was seeing celeb make-up artist Lou Teasdale before they announced their separation last month.

Carroll, 35, was photographed kissing and cuddling Lou, 41, on a recent holiday in Majorca, and also at a London bar.
But sources say mum-of-three Billi, 36, is aware of contact between the pair “long before then”.
And Billi, who has remained in the couple’s £5million Essex home, is now preparing for a divorce action.
A source said: “Billi contacted a lawyer after she found out he and Lou were seeing each other during the summer.
“There is still a lot to sort out and she’s discussing her options.
“They were together for 11 years.
“Him getting together with Lou was the last straw.
“She can’t be sure about when, but her friends and family are extremely angry.
“They feel Andy has treated her appallingly.”
Carroll, now with French club Bordeaux, announced his split from Billi after two years of marriage in a statement to The Sun on Sunday at the end of last month.
He said: “It has been a hard few months for our family and we continue to move forward amicably for our children.”
He and Lou were snapped days later smooching on a Spanish beach.
Andy and influencer Billi got engaged in 2014.
They wed in 2022 — but only after a row when he was pictured sozzled in bed with two women on his Dubai stag do.
One later insisted he was a gent and that nothing sexual had happened.
As well as three kids with Billi, Carroll also has two children, aged 15 and 14, from a previous relationship.
The Sun on Sunday approached Carroll for comment.
