Andy Carroll and Lou Teasdale have sparked rumours they’re back together after making a telling move. 

The couple called it quits this week after a succession of arguments. Initial reports suggest the footballer, 36, ended things with the make-up artist, 41, due to frustration over what he saw as her demanding nature.

However, Daily Mail exclusively revealed on Wednesday it was in fact Lou who called off the relationship.

Now it’s been reported Andy has ‘begged for one last chance’. 

However, it appears the tides might be turning, as the two have begun following each other on Instagram once again, after initially erasing all signs of their relationship from their social media accounts. 

Additionally, a close friend of Andy’s claimed the Dagenham & Redbridge player thinks the split was a ‘mistake’. 

Andy Carroll and Lou Teasdale have sparked rumours they’re back together after making the telling move of following each other on Instagram again 

They told The Sun:  ‘He lashed out after she complained about his partying and saying she’d rather he didn’t drink.

‘They’re not back together but the door is open again. He’s even added her pictures back on his Instagram and followed her again.

‘Those familiar with them as a couple don’t hold much hope for a future together, but they both have reservations and are contemplating giving it another go.’

Daily Mail has contacted Andy and Lou’s representatives for comment. 

On Wednesday, a source revealed to the Daily Mail: ‘Lou was the one who decided to end things with Andy, making the decision a few days ago, and it was entirely her choice to break off their relationship.’

‘She’s not interested in placing blame and hoped to handle their breakup privately. However, he blocked her on Instagram and removed all their photos together after their split.’

‘Lou is very upset by how everything has played out and the arguments between them were especially difficult for her to go through.

‘However, Andy wants Lou back and flew to Ibiza via private jet on Tuesday just to find her, even though he has no idea where she’s staying.

‘Although he may see it as a romantic move, Lou is not impressed. She just wants to be surrounded by her family and is not interested in any of his reconciliation efforts right now.’

‘All she has done all year is love and support Andy, her feelings haven’t gone away, but Lou has to protect herself now and ending the relationship is the only way to move forward.’

The couple split this this week after a series of rows, with initial reports claiming the footballer, 36, dumped the make-up artist, 41 – yet her pals later claimed Lou was the one to end it 

Now it’s been reported Andy had ‘begged for one last chance’, and it seems that he could be in luck, with the pair now following each other again on Instagram 

The pair, who were together for just over a year, have now unfollowed each other on social media and Andy has wiped all trace of Lou from his Instagram. 

The father-of-five returned to the UK with Dagenham & Redbridge last month after a two-year spell in France. 

The couple’s last public outing was at an Oasis gig at the end of July, where they packed on the PDA, proving they were still together.

The date night came after the ex footballer was interrogated about the arguments with his make-up artist lover in a restaurant and at their hotel on the Greek party island, The Sun on Sunday reports.

Speaking about the first incident, a worker at the Nikolus Tavern told the newspaper: ‘He seemed very drunk and furious with his partner.

‘He was using very bad words. It was improper behaviour. The woman looked very upset.’

According to the restaurant worker, police arrived and took the ex-Liverpool, Newcastle United and England striker aside for a chat, before he was later allowed back to girlfriend Lou.

‘Police spoke to him. He was allowed to return, and the couple left after paying for their meal. Andy was very calm when the police arrived — he stood up and spoke to them outside the restaurant’, the restaurant worker added.

Just hours later, cops were called again by hotel staff following reports of damage in their room.

Daily Mail understands that the former England forward – once Britain’s most expensive Premier League footballer when bought by Liverpool from Newcastle for £35million – was taken to the police station for questioning, but he was not arrested and no further action was taken.

The incident was confirmed by a hotel employee, who claimed Andy broke the door. That night, Lou left the hotel and spent the night at Soho Roc House.

A joint statement from the couple given to The Sun said: ‘Whilst having a private dinner in a restaurant on a quiet holiday in Mykonos, we had a heated discussion of the sort that most couples have had on occasion. It quickly became apparent to the police that there was no reason for them to be there.

‘We went outside the restaurant with them together as they insisted they wanted to ‘look after’ us.

‘As far as we are concerned, the situation has been blown out of all proportion by an interested member of the public. No one was arrested and no one was charged with anything. We are very happy, in love and looking forward to our future together and we are disappointed that a private disagreement has become a public matter.’

The pair began dating last year after he separated from his TOWIE star wife Billi Mucklow last September.

Andy and Billi called it quits divorce after two years of turbulent marriage, the footballer confirmed last year.

In 2022, their wedding was almost called off when Andy was pictured drunkenly passed out in bed with two women in Dubai on his stag do.

Billi forgave him after one of the women insisted nothing sexual happened. 

Less than two years after their nuptials, the couple’s marriage was over – with Andy confirming they had started divorce proceedings after ‘a hard few months for our family’.

Andy said in a statement at the time: ‘Billi and I have privately separated earlier this year and we are under way with our divorce proceedings’.

‘It has been a hard few months for our family and we continue to move forward amicably for our children.’

The former couple have three children together Arlo, Wolf, and Marvel Mae and she also raises his two children Emilie Rose, 15, and Lucas, 14 from his past relationship.
