Billi Mucklow was seen for first time on Tuesday since her ex Andy Carroll's holiday with his new girlfriend Lou Teasdale was revealed.

The former TOWIE star, 36, was supported by her ex co-star and close pal Cara Kilbey, 37, as they headed to a Pilates class and café in Epping, Essex.

It is the first time Billi has been seen out in public since Andy jetted off to Majorca to celebrate Lou's birthday - with the new couple unable to keep their hands off each other while packing on the PDA on the beach.

Amid his carefree holiday MailOnline has revealed that their divorce is 'getting nasty' and that Billi is 'determined to get everything she can' while he moves on with a new woman. 

As Lou and Andy were seen frolicking in the sea as former X Factor stylist Lou turned 41, Billi was at home doing the school run and looking after the couple's five children - two of which are from Andy's previous relationship.

The split now threatens to divide the close-knit Essex celebrity community - especially because Lou's twin sister Sam's is a central part of it.

One source said: 'This is looking like it could become quite a WAG war.'

Billi looked in good spirits as she stepped out with fellow mum Cara and showed off her toned physique in tight black sports gear. 

She completed her look with black trainers and a quilted Chanel bag while donning dark shades and pulling her blonde tresses into a pony tail.

Her outing comes as it has been revealed Billi is determined to keep the couple's family home - Sir Rod Stewart's former mansion, Copped Hall, in Epping, Essex. 

The 18th century home which Billi and Andy bought for £4.1million in 2019 boasts 25 acres of land, a football pitch and a lake. 

One source close to the estranged couple said today: 'Seeing Andy on holiday having a lovely time while she is at home doing the school run and looking after five children would leave any woman incandescent.

'She is at home while Andy is away enjoying the sunshine. She is used to him being away for his football but it all feels like Billi's nose is being rubbed in it now.

'Andy and Lou are really, really in love and are besotted with each other but Billi will give as good as she gets. Their divorce is the talk of Essex and has caused a massive divide amongst the their large friendship group.

'At the centre is Lou's sister Sam who is very much part of the cool set in Essex and that is how Andy and Lou met.'

It can also be revealed that the pub in Andy and Lou first met is just a stone's throw from the family home. Sources say that they met at Theydon Oak village pub in Epping, through Lou's non-identical twin Sam.

Sam, who co-owns the hair company Bleach London with her sister, is said to have attended a party at the pub and brought along her sister where her and Carroll then met.

Billi is currently at home with Andy's two children from his relationship with Faye Johnstone - Emilie Rose, 15, and Lucas, 13. She is also caring for their own kids Arlo, 9, Wolf, 7, and four-year-old Marvel - as Andy and Lou were pictured enjoying ice cream and frolicking in the sea at exclusive beach club Balneario.

Billi, 37, is being supported by her father Steve who is said to be 'cross' at how his daughter has been treated by Andy, the former England footballer who now plays for French fourth tier side FC Girondins de Bordeaux.

MailOnline revealed Andy's new romance just hours after it was announced that he and Billi had split.

Andy, 35, and Lou were later seen on a date at London's Spitalfields.

Despite claims Billi was 'blindsided' by the relationship, friends of hers say that she 'knew Andy had someone' but she just wasn't sure who it was. She found out shortly before the romance was made public.

The source added: 'Billi has no intention of speaking out until after her divorce is finalized. She is determined to get everything she can - including the house.

'Her dad Steve is also fuming and won't let her settle for anything less than she deserves.

'She's taken on Andy's two children and has three little ones of her own. She's a great mum and there is a lot of anger towards to Andy. '

Lou, who once toured the world with One Direction as their hair stylist, now has 5.8million Instagram followers, owns two businesses and two properties in north London.

She was seen on Monday wearing a pink string bikini, she clung onto the footballer as he carried her through the waves and struggled to keep his hands off her.

Billi and Andy tied the knot in June 2022, but last week confirmed they are set to divorce after secretly separating earlier this year, having been together for 11 years.

The build up to the nuptials was overshadowed by Andy's debauched stag do, when he was pictured lying in bed asleep next to glamorous bar manager Taylor Jane Wilkey in a Dubai hotel room.

Taylor also posed for snaps wearing one of his personalised bathrobes.

Andy flew to Dubai to gate-crashed Billi's hen do, but stayed on with his pals as she jetted back home.

Although she gave him a frosty reception upon his return, Billi forgave the striker and the wedding went ahead as planned.
