In the whirlwind world of professional darts, 18-year-old Luke Littler, affectionately dubbed “The Nuke,” continues to capture headlines both on and off the oche. The reigning PDC World Darts Champion, who skyrocketed to fame with his meteoric rise in the sport, has recently been spotted forming a close bond with 19-year-old beautician Faith Millar. This development comes nine months after Littler’s highly publicized split from his former girlfriend, Eloise Milburn, and has sparked curiosity among fans eager to know more about the young star’s personal life.
Littler’s journey from a relatively unknown teenager to a household name has been nothing short of extraordinary. At just 16, he stunned the darts world by reaching the PDC World Darts Championship final, defeating giants like Raymond van Barneveld and Rob Cross before falling to Luke Humphries. Since then, his career has soared to new heights. In 2025 alone, Littler clinched the World Championship title, pocketing a £500,000 prize, and secured victories in the Grand Slam of Darts, the World Series of Darts, and the UK Open. His ascent to the world’s second-ranked player, coupled with a net worth reportedly exceeding £1.5 million, has cemented his status as a sporting prodigy. Off the board, Littler’s life has been equally dynamic, with his recent friendship with Millar drawing significant attention.
The pair reportedly met just a few weeks ago and quickly “clicked,” becoming nearly inseparable. Millar, a fun-loving eyelash technician from Wigan—only 15 miles from Littler’s hometown of Warrington, Cheshire—has already accompanied the darts sensation to several public events. Most notably, she was by his side at a Q&A session hosted by Littler’s sponsor, BoohooMan, in Manchester, and was spotted leaving a Premier League Darts event in Newcastle with him. Observers noted Littler’s arm around Millar as they departed under a security escort, fueling speculation about the nature of their relationship. Despite their closeness, both Littler and Millar have been adamant that their bond is strictly platonic. A spokesperson for Littler emphasized, “That’s as far as it goes, they are just good friends for now. Nothing more. Luke doesn’t want a girlfriend at the moment, he’s focusing on his darts and is too busy travelling around the country to start up a relationship.”
This new chapter follows Littler’s split from Eloise Milburn, a 22-year-old amateur darts player, in June 2024. The breakup, reportedly initiated by Littler via text message, was attributed to his demanding schedule, which left little time for romance. The couple, who had been together for 10 months, faced public scrutiny due to their five-year age gap, with Milburn enduring online abuse from trolls. Littler publicly defended her, stating on social media, “Everyone needs to stop sending hate towards Eloise saying it’s her fault, this and that. I myself split up with Eloise and everyone just needs to give us some time, no need for everyone to message her and give her grief.” Despite the split, the two have reportedly remained on friendly terms.
Millar, described as “very sweet, very bubbly, and kind,” has already integrated into Littler’s inner circle. She has met his parents, Lisa and Anthony, and visited his £6,000-a-month rented mansion near Warrington multiple times. The five-bedroom property, complete with a pool and sprawling garden, reflects Littler’s newfound wealth and status. Friends of the pair have noted their strong connection, with one insider revealing, “Faith and Luke have become firm friends and enjoy one another’s company a lot.” Millar’s playful side is evident on her TikTok, where she lip-syncs to pop songs and dances with friends, followed by Littler on both TikTok and Instagram.
Littler’s focus remains firmly on his craft, with his relentless pursuit of darts glory showing no signs of slowing down. His recent Premier League win in Newcastle, where he dismantled Luke Humphries 6-1, underscores his dominance. Yet, his personal life continues to captivate fans. A previous incident during a live-streamed gaming session with streamer “angryginge13” hinted at a potential new romance when an unidentified female voice was heard, prompting Littler to exclaim, “F*** off. If someone has screen recorded that, it’s in the papers in the morning.” While that voice remains unconfirmed, it added to the intrigue surrounding his love life.
For now, Littler and Millar are content to define their relationship as a close friendship, with the darts star prioritizing his career over romance. As he continues to break records and redefine darts, Littler’s off-stage moments—whether sharing laughs with Millar or navigating the pressures of fame—offer a glimpse into the life of a young man balancing stardom with the simple joys of friendship. Fans will undoubtedly keep a keen eye on both his next throw and his next public outing with his new companion.
