Andy Carroll has reportedly defied his football club boss’s warnings over his relationship with Lou Teasdale and is ‘blinded’ by her.
The couple split earlier this month after a series of rows, with initial reports claiming the footballer, 36, dumped the make-up artist, 41, after growing fed up with her high maintenance behaviour.
The split it seems was short-lived, as they put on a united front this week as they jetted off on a romantic holiday to Ibiza together and shared snaps from the trip on Instagram.
But the holiday is reportedly in defiance of footballer Andy’s club Dagenham and Redbridge’s boss Lee Bradbury.
Andy was reportedly pulled into a chat with club bosses and warned to ‘reign in’ his romance with Lou as their relationship ‘attracts unwanted attention’.
‘Andy’s relationship with Lou attracts a lot of unwanted attention,’ a source told The Sun.

‘He was pulled in by the boss and warned to reign it in. But Andy is blinded by Lou, his telling-off fell on deaf ears.’
DailyMail contacted Andy’s representatives for comment.
DailyMail exclusively revealed that prior to previous reports, it was in fact Lou who called off the relationship with Andy.
Just four days later, Andy revealed they’ve decided to give their relationship another go.
In a series of snaps posted on Instagram on Wednesday, the couple looked stronger than ever as they held hands in a mirror selfie while lunching at Maison Neo.
Lou captioned the post: ‘Love you x’, which cemented their relationship status after they briefly split.
Andy also posted a snap of Lou showing off her snooker skills while dressed in a stylish red bikini.

Last week, Andy said he’s vowed to cut down on alcohol in a bid to save his relationship with Lou, as he confirmed the pair are trying ‘to work through their difficulties’.
He told The Sun on Sunday: ‘I love Lou and I love her family. We row like any couple.’
Referring to his divorce from wife Billi Mucklow, who he shares three children with, Andy added: ‘Things have been difficult for me and I’m going through a divorce.
‘Some of our rows have been about alcohol, as Lou has been teetotal for 14 years and I have a beer or wine at dinner and a drink after the game, but it’s not a problem in my life. We’re better off together and we’re trying to work through our difficulties.’
The pair, who were together for just over a year, unfollowed each other on social media and Andy wiped all trace of Lou from his Instagram.
They now follow each other on Instagram and have added their loved-up snaps back to their pages.
A source previously told the Daily Mail: ‘It was Lou who ended her relationship with Andy, she walked away a few days ago, it was very much her choice to end their romance.
‘She isn’t interested in pointing the finger or blaming him and hoped to deal with their split in private, before he blocked her on Instagram and deleted their photos together.
The pair began dating last year after he separated from his TOWIE star wife Billi Mucklow last September (Billi and Andy pictured on their wedding day)
‘Lou is very upset by how everything has played out and the arguments between them were especially difficult for her to go through.
‘However, Andy wants Lou back and flew to Ibiza via private jet on Tuesday just to find her, even though he has no idea where she’s staying.
‘He will think it’s a romantic gesture but for Lou, she’s unimpressed and just wants to be away with her family, she’s not interested in any of his attempts at a reconciliation now.
‘All she has done all year is love and support Andy, her feelings haven’t gone away, but Lou has to protect herself now and ending the relationship is the only way to move forward.’
The father-of-five returned to the UK with Dagenham & Redbridge last month after a two-year spell in France.
