BILLI Mucklow's mum is supporting the struggling ex-Towie star after photos emerged of Andy Carroll sleeping beside a blonde on his stag do.
The reality star had fled to her parents' home in Essex after Carroll was snapped in images shared on Snapchat.
The photos show him fast asleep next to a barmaid at his party in Dubai. He and Billi are due to wed in just days after an eight-year engagement.
Billi's mum Paula looked concerned and upset as she was spotted parking outside the couple's £5million home in a £70,000 Porsche Jeep today.
Billi, 34, has two children with Carroll, 33. Both also have children from former relationships.
They announced their engagement in November 2014, after Carroll had popped the question during a romantic mini-break in Rome, Italy.

However, their long relationship now hangs in the balance after the photos emerged.
It was initially believed Billi had no plans to cancel the wedding - despite branding Carroll's behaviour "idiotic".
But the pair then faced off in an explosive showdown after shame-faced Andy flew home in disgrace.
And Billi is now understood to be weighing up the couples' future together after leaving the family home on Saturday and returning to stay with her mum and dad.

She has also replaced a WhatsApp profile picture of herself and her fiancé with a photo of just their children.
It's believed she's also demanded her partner "hand over everything" from the night in question.
A friend said: "It's the only way she can move on — however bad it is."
Billi and her pals jetted to Dubai for her hen do earlier this month. But Carroll quickly followed and gate-crashed the party.
Billi seemed delighted, sharing a photo of the pair together as they enjoyed dinner.
However, last week photos were shared of Carroll sleeping alongside Taylor Jane Wilkey while in the country for his stag do.
COME CLEAN
Photographs show the recently-released West Brom forward passed out on a bed beside the 27-year-old bar manager.
Other images show Taylor wearing the dad-of-four's personalised bathrobe on. It shows his name embroidered on the chest.
Taylor says the photos were leaked after she sent them to friends in the UK, and insists nothing sexual happened.
She told The Sun: "It was all just a bit of entirely innocent fun."
However, friends admitted the pictures were "embarrassing" so close to their wedding.
Caroll had been partying at the Cove Beach club with Taylor when he invited her and a female friend to his hotel suite for an afterparty.
Taylor, who grew up in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, said: "It was an afterparty. We all went back to his hotel.
STAG D'OH
"I didn't sleep with him, it wasn't like that, there was three of us in the room."
She said the night was "really boozy" and Carroll was "steaming drunk".
In 2019, Carroll credited Billi with changing his lifestyle.
He told nufc.co.uk: "I met my missus, and we've got four kids living at home now, we've got animals, we've got responsibilities.
"There's no more behaviour like it was, you know. I was stupid, I was young, and I was carried away with the lifestyle that I had.
"Now it's completely different. I'm actually a dad, I've grown up, and got responsibilities, so… I've got a purpose."
