World Darts Champion Luke Humphries has sent a warning to celebrities that supported and DM'd teenage sensation Luke Litter during the competition.

World number one Humphries spoiled the party by beating teenage star Littler 7-4 in the World Darts Championship final on Wednesday night.

The nation was right behind 16-year-old Littler who fell at the final hurdle in his incredible debut at Alexandra Palace.

Littler has previously registered wins over former World Champion Christian Kist as well as five-time victor and childhood hero Raymond Van Barneveld.

Such performances inspired a huge amount of support online from some big names in sport including Rio Ferdinand, Declan Rice and even David Beckham, who messaged Littler privately.

Despite the welcomed support, his opponent in the final Humphries warned the big names not to disappear now the World Championships are over.

Speaking on TalkSport, he said: "There were a few DMs from celebrities wishing me good luck and stuff.

"But all I can say is that I hope that these people that supported Luke [Littler] keep to it and not just for the World Championships.

"Because if you are going to support him during the Worlds, you need to keep supporting him. You can't just support him for one tournament.

"I think that it is important that they keep supporting him throughout the rest of his career.

"You can't just support him for the Worlds and not afterwards. Luke had plenty of support and it was really appreciated.

"He has shown so much maturity in all the media he has done."

Now the Worlds are over eyes turn to the Premier League Darts. The top four in the world rankings were announced on Thursday to be competing in the event alongside four other wildcards, one of which is Littler.
