Littler Continues Winning Streak After World Championship Success
Since turning 18 in January, and following a separation from his former partner Eloise Milburn last year, Littler has achieved significant success in the world of darts. “The Nuke” secured his first World Championship title, defeating Michael van Gerwen at Alexandra Palace, and subsequently ascended to the second position in global rankings.
Premier League Lead Extended in Newcastle Victory
Littler currently tops the Premier League table, holding a comfortable eight-point lead over Luke Humphries, who sits in second place. In Thursday’s final at the Utilita Arena Newcastle, Littler defeated his rival, and Millar was observed departing the venue with the darts star after the event.
Relationship Speculation Surrounds Darts Star
Although sources close to both individuals have denied a romantic relationship, reports indicate Littler and the 19-year-old have been “inseparable” since their initial meeting. Regarding attire, Littler was seen wearing a casual black hoodie, dark trousers, and black trainers, while his companion mirrored this informal style with a grey hooded jumper, blue jeans, and Nike Dunk trainers.
Dominant Display Secures Fourth Nightly Win for Littler
Millar likely appreciated Littler’s performance in Newcastle, as the world number two achieved his fourth nightly victory of the season with ease. He began with a dominant win against Stephen Bunting, followed by another equally commanding victory over Rob Cross in the semi-final, and then defeated Humphries 6-1 in the final.

Littler Jokes About Increased Banter with Fellow Players Post-18th Birthday
Following his Newcastle victory, Littler commented on the evolving dynamics with fellow players since his 18th birthday. In an interview with Sky Sports presenter Emma Paton, Littler remarked, “There’s always been banter, but obviously now I’m 18, there’s more banter I can get involved in.” He also responded affirmatively with a grin when Wayne Mardle inquired if he was now initiating the jokes.
Grueling Schedule Takes a Toll on Premier League Leader
The Premier League leader acknowledged that the demanding schedule was impacting his physical condition, admitting he “didn’t want to” participate in the final. He further explained, “The winning feeling [keeps me going], even just winning the first game tonight [vs Bunting]. You can just relax, go on to the semi-final and final. Even when I came down to the bottom of the stairs, I was tired, I didn’t want to come up here, but it’s another trophy and it was another two points on the line.”
