Billi Mucklow looked radiant while celebrating her 37th birthday with her children Marvel, Wolf and Arlo during a lavish family holiday – after her recent marriage split from Andy Carroll.
The TV favourite, 36, was snapped ditching her wedding ring as she ensured to well-document her epic celebration in a swanky exotic destination alongside her loved ones.
Billi and football icon Andy, 35, announced their split earlier in September after two years of marriage.
The couple shares the three children while Billi is also step-mum to Emilie Rose, 15, and Lucas, 14, which Andy shares with former fiancée Faye Johnstone.
The TOWIE icon appeared relaxed and carefree as she posed for a gorgeous picture holding a glass of champagne.

Billi looked glowing as she made the most of her time celebrating the special occasion, surrounded by beloved family and friends
Cheering to new beginnings, the reality sensation simply penned her latest Instagram carousel: ‘✨ Chapter 37 ✨.’
Billi looked glowing, flaunting her toned legs as she donned a black crop T-shirt and matching sarong amid her sun-kissed getaway, where she was surrounded by friends and family for the special occasion.
In another sweet snap, she is seen warmly hugging Arlo, 9, Wolf, 6, and Marvel Mae, four, as they all beamed happily.
It comes amid claims Billie fears footballer Andy was cheating on her with new girlfriend Lou before their shock split last month.
Friends of the reality star they suspect the Liverpool striker was seeing celebrity make-up artist Lou, 41, before the former couple separated.
Meanwhile, Andy made his first public appearance with new girlfriend Lou last week as they dressed up for Halloween and attended a party together.
Soon after sources claimed that Billi, who is still living in their £5million Essex home with their children, is aware Andy and Lou had contact ‘long before then’.
A source told The Sun: ‘Billi contacted a lawyer after she found out he and Lou were seeing each other during the summer.

As well as her three children with Andy, Billi is also a step-mum to Andy’s two children from previous relationships Emilie Rose, 15, and Lucas, 14, which she has always treated as her own
‘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.’
MailOnline has contacted both Billi and Andy’s representatives for comment.
Last week, the reality star – who is preparing for divorce action – showed she was ever the doting mother, as she shared a sweet photo with her children.
At the same time, Andy and Lou were pictured packing on the PDA on the beach, after jetting off on a romantic holiday to celebrate Lou’s 41st birthday, while Billi was back home looking after their children.
On October 18, she took to her Instagram to share a heartwarming photo with all of the kids cuddled up together in their pajamas
MailOnline previously revealed Billi and Andy’s divorce is ‘getting nasty’ and that Billi is ‘determined to get everything she can’ while he moves on with a new woman.
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.’
MailOnline revealed this month that Billi has been ‘blindsided’ by Andy’s new romance with influencer Lou, with her friends saying she is still grieving their split after being together 11 years and is devastated that Andy moved on so quickly.
A source said: ‘Billi was upset the marriage ended, but accepts it had run its course.’
They added that Billi will continue to co-parent all five children, including step-kids Emilie Rose and Lucas.
They said: ‘They had plenty of ups and downs but she doesn’t regret a thing, because it’s given her three children and two more from Andy’s previous relationship, who she’s grown incredibly close to and still live with her full-time.
‘Andy is currently based in France, but comes back to see them as much as possible. Billi will continue to bring up Emilie Rose and Lucas.’
On his new romance, the source went on: ‘It was a shock for Billi, given they only split months previously. It left her blindsided initially but he’s single now, so he can do what he wants.
‘But what she doesn’t want to do is cause any fallouts between herself and Andy for the sake of the kids. They intend to co-parent them and continue to provide a loving family unit.’
Billi and Andy married in June 2022 in a lavish Hampshire ceremony and days later, threw a Coachella-themed party for their friends and family.

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.
Other snaps showed Taylor posing while wearing one of his personalised bathrobes, but she later insisted to The Sun that the photos were ‘a joke.’
Despite giving him a frosty reception upon his return, Billi forgave the striker and the wedding went ahead as planned.
