Billi, who has now split from footballer husband Andy Carroll, shared pictures from her birthday as she wrote on Instagram: “Chapter 37”.
In one photo she poses with birthday balloons and a glass of fizz, whilst in another she sits in front of the swimming pool with a birthday cake and candles.
In a third she can be seen getting a birthday cuddle from one of her and Andy’s sons.
In September, The Sun exclusively revealed that the pair, who tied the knot in 2022, had secretly split in July.
Andy, now with French club Bordeaux, announced his split from Billi after two years of marriage in a statement to The Sun on Sunday.
He’s now gone public with his new relationship with Lou Teasdale, and has been pictured on holiday in Majorca with her.
Billi, who has remained in the couple’s £5million Essex home and is mother to three children with Andy, is now preparing for a divorce action.
A source said: “Billi contacted a lawyer after she found out he and Lou were seeing each other during the summer.
“There is still a lot to sort out and she’s discussing her options. They were together for 11 years.
“Him getting together with Lou was the last straw.
“She can’t be sure about when, but her friends and family are extremely angry. They feel Andy has treated her appallingly.”
Billi and Andy share three kids Alro, eight, Wolf, five, and Marvel, three.
Footballer Andy is also dad to Emilie Rose, 14, and Lucas, 13, from a former relationship.
The pair started dating in 2013 and got engaged the following year, before they eventually wed at the Four Seasons Hotel in Hampshire in 2022.
In his statement announcing the split, Andy shared: “Billi and I have privately separated earlier this year and we are underway with our divorce proceedings.
“It has been a hard few months for our family and we continue to move forward amicably for our children.
“It has been a hard few months for our family and we continue to move forward amicably for our children.”
