KEVIN DOETS’ new girlfriend Bianca Rangel was left disappointed after his loss to Luke Littler at the UK Open.
The Dutch darter, 27, fell to a narrow 10-8 defeat to the World No1 despite outscoring Littler for the most part.

But Doets will take comfort at the fact that his new beau was wildly cheering him on at Butlin’s, Minehead.
Rangel, 22, is Brazilian, five years younger than him and lives in Portugal.
She studies Languages and International Relations at the University of Porto and is the daughter of former PDC player Bruno Rangel.
Bruno was active on the Challenge Tour last year but played his only and last major tournament in 1996.
It is plausible that Doets met Bianca through her father, who played in the World Cup of Darts for in 2020.
Doets broke up with his Swedish ex-girlfriend Jacqueline Alpevik in December 2024.
The pair birthed a one-and-a-half-year-old son, Aiden, and Doets still lives in Sweden.
After Doets and Rangel went public at the 2026 World Cup of Darts, he jokingly said in a post-match interview: “I’m in love, but I can never keep it in my own country.”
Rangel has played semi-professional darts herself, losing in the first round of the WDF Women’s World Cup in 2019.
She has photos of her travels across countless European countries plastered over her page.
Doets has reached the last 16 of the World Darts Championship in back-to-back years, losing at Ally Pally to last December.
When asked if he cares about who he plays next, said: “No, not really. Someone a bit easier than Kevin [Doets]!
“That was tough. Anyone in the evening session and I’ll be OK.”
