Luke Littler has won praise from fans after behind-the-scenes footage featuring the darts superstar and his girlfriend surfaced online, offering a rare glimpse into his life away from the bright lights of Alexandra Palace.
The newly crowned world champion has become one of the most recognisable figures in British sport, but the candid clips show a very different side to the teenager — one that supporters say highlights why he remains so popular despite his meteoric rise.
In the footage, Littler is seen relaxed and playful with his girlfriend, chatting comfortably and sharing laughs with those around him in a low-key setting. Far removed from the intensity of the oche, the clips reveal a grounded young man enjoying normal moments amid an otherwise extraordinary period in his life.
Fans were quick to react on social media, praising Littler’s attitude and humility. Many noted how naturally he carries himself despite now being a multiple-time world champion and a millionaire before his 20th birthday.
One fan wrote: “This is why people love Luke — fame hasn’t changed him at all.”
Another added: “He’s still just a normal lad, even with everything he’s achieved.”
Littler has previously spoken about the importance of keeping his inner circle small and staying close to family and friends as his profile continues to soar. He has also been open about how much support he receives from those closest to him, particularly during high-pressure moments on the sport’s biggest stages.
The footage comes at a time when interest in Littler’s personal life has intensified, following his historic World Darts Championship success and rapid transition into a mainstream sporting celebrity. However, the reaction to the clips suggests fans are reassured by what they see — a champion who remains authentic and unaffected by fame.
As Littler prepares for the next chapter of his career, both on and off the stage, moments like these continue to reinforce his reputation as not just an exceptional talent, but a relatable figure navigating success with maturity well beyond his years.
