LUKE Littler is well-known due to his success in the 2023/24 PDC World Darts Championship.
Here we take a look at his big brother Leon — as well as his sister Caitlin and girlfriend Eloise.
Who is Luke Littler's brother Leon?
Darts sensation Luke Littler has an older brother called Leon.
On New Year’s Day, the family watched Luke demolish Brendan Dolan on TV in the bar of The Millhouse pub, near the Littler family’s house in Padgate.
Leon was with his girlfriend Katie Williams and their baby George.

He said: “When George was born, he bought him his very own dartboard and can’t wait for him to be old enough to play. He’s also just bought him a new pram.
“We’ve already got George a pair of ear defenders and hope to take him to watch Luke very soon.
“We’re sure that George knows when Luke is on the TV as he smiles and gurgles in front of the screen!
“I haven’t had a chance to go down to watch but both my parents are there to support him — although mum’s the nervous one who gets extremely anxious when Luke is playing.”
Speaking about how his brother got started in the sport, Leon said: “There are videos of Luke as young as just 18 months old in a nappy throwing darts and copying the celebrations of then-champions such as Phil Taylor and Raymond van Barneveld, who he beat on Sunday.
"But my first clear memories are when Luke was about five. He’d play darts whenever he could — sometimes just stopping for a meal before starting again.
“If Mum and Dad tried to take the darts away from him there’d be a real scene with him crying loudly.
“My dad was a very keen player and, as soon as he realised Luke had a talent, he wanted to nurture this.”
Does Leon play Darts?
Yes, Leon also plays darts.
He was said to be a better player than his brother Luke, but he gave up the game and now works as a barman.

Despite his teenage brother’s incredible rise to stardom, Leon is convinced fame and fortune will not go to his head.
He said: “Nothing’s changed Luke and I know nothing ever will. He’s very down to earth, and keeps his feet on the ground.
“He’s still the caring and devoted brother who grew up with me.”
Who is Luke Littler's sister Caitlin?
Caitlin Littler is darts prodigy Luke 'The Nuke' Littler's the older sister.
She can often be seen cheering Luke on at darts tournaments, and her social media accounts are filled with content about her brother's impressive achievements.
Very little is known about what Caitlin does for a career as she prefers to maintain a low profile and keep personal information out of the public domain.
She regularly shares her pride about Luke's accomplishments on social media.
Following his 5-1 quarter-final victory over Brendan Dolan in the 2023/24 PDC World Darts Championship, she wrote: "The dream continues. Unbelievably proud of you."
Luke also shared the exact same message with his mum Lisa after he beat Matt Campbell in the third round.

On her Instagram account she posted: “Gutted I couldn’t be there but never been so proud of someone, so much love.”
In August 2023 after Luke won his second Super Series, Caitlin said: “Speechless he’s done it again! Never EVER been more proud of someone, what a night!
"You just continue to amaze us all everyday we all love you so much, keep smashing it.”
Who is Luke Littler's girlfriend Eloise?
The Nuke's girlfriend's full name is Eloise Milburn.
She is a beauty consultant, Avon sales representative and amateur darts player.
As well as being a fan of musical theatre, Eloise is a talented singer and has been showing off her sensational voice on social media.
A clip of her belting out Adele’s hit song Easy On Me clocked up over 2,500 views on TikTok — before she made her account private.
On January 1, 2024 their relationship made headlines after they were seen sharing a kiss at the PDC World Darts Championships at Ally Pally.
After Luke stormed past his opponent Brendan Dolan 5-1 to progress to the final four, he celebrated the historic win by kissing Eloise.
Eloise was supporting Luke from the crowd while wearing the same blue shirt as him.
