Luke Littler once made a heartfelt promise to his girlfriend Faith Millar just months before the pair went their separate ways, highlighting how quickly life has changed for the teenage darts superstar.
During the early stages of Littler’s meteoric rise, the reigning world champion was open about the importance of keeping his personal life grounded amid the whirlwind of fame, money and media attention. Speaking candidly at the time, Littler reassured Faith that their relationship would not be overshadowed by his growing celebrity status.
He insisted he would remain the same person despite the sudden spotlight, promising to prioritise those closest to him and not let darts consume his entire life. The pledge was seen by many fans as a sign of Littler’s maturity, particularly given the pressures that come with becoming one of the most recognisable faces in world sport at such a young age.
However, just six months later, the couple quietly split, with neither party publicly criticising the other. Sources close to the situation suggested that Littler’s relentless schedule, increased travel and constant attention made maintaining a normal relationship increasingly difficult.
The breakup came during a period when Littler’s profile was exploding globally, following major titles, record prize money and an ever-growing commercial portfolio. While he has remained private about the details, Littler has previously acknowledged that balancing elite sport with personal relationships can be challenging.
Despite the split, Littler has continued to speak respectfully about Faith, and there has been no public fallout. Fans have largely praised the teenager for handling the situation with discretion, mirroring the composure he shows on the darts stage.
As Littler continues his journey towards potentially becoming one of the sport’s all-time greats, the episode serves as a reminder of the personal sacrifices often made behind the scenes — especially for someone navigating fame before his twenties.
