Pals say he plans to propose to former One Direction hair stylist Lou, 41, when his divorce with ex-Towie star wife Billi Mucklow is finalised.

A friend said: “Lou is already telling her mates they have discussed marriage and Andy thinks he’s met his soulmate.

"Their connection is so strong.

"He has never felt like this before.”

"He definitely wants to put a ring on it.

"It’s been a whirlwind romance for both of them.

"But they’re playing for keeps.”

Posting snaps of the pair on his Instagram account this week Andy wrote: “My love.”

The striker and Billi, who have three kids, split last July after 11 years together.
