He's an £85,000-a-week footballer with a penchant for pony tails.
She, a former TOWIE starlet who loves all-things pink.
So when Andy Carroll, 25, and his pregnant fiancée Billi Mucklow, 26, came to decorating their new Essex home, it was always going to sparkle a little more than the ordinary abode.
But, as photographs shared by the couple on social media reveal, the house, dubbed Carrol Castle by its proud new owners, is even more gaudy than fans expected.
'Classy': Billi Mucklow and Andy Carroll's interior decor choices didn't go down well with fans when the former TOWIE star posted a series of pictures of their new house
'Billutifuls': The footballer surprised his fiancée with her very own home beauty salon, revealed on the former reality star's Instagram page
Disco time: 'Lets PARTY! #CarrollCastle', Miss Mucklow captioned the picture of their families around the dining table on Christmas Day
While Miss Mucklow's 160,000 followers were unanimously impressed with the eye-sore zebra print wallpaper, matching cushions, black fur rug and glass coffee table, her partner's fans failed to see its appeal.
'Bruv, why did you let her have a pink sofa?' bemused one Instagram user, while another described the couple's living room as 'the worst room ever'.
Elsewhere in the house is a fully-functioning beauty salon, a surprise gift from the footballer to his fiancée.
Posing in a pink dressing gown next to neon-lit mirrors, Miss Mucklow said of the live-in beauty parlour: 'Biggest shock of my life secret key, lead to a secret room in my new house! My very own salon called "Billutifuls" I'm one lucky girl.'
The couple welcomed family to their home for Christmas, laying on what appeared to be a festive buffet in a sun-drenched conservatory.
Later the party descended to the disco era, with pink and purple lights flying around the room as bottles of wine, flowers and candles littered the table.

Baby joy: The couple - who became engaged in November - are expecting their first child together
The former TOWIE star donned a Christmas jumper to make to announce her pregnancy on Christmas Day
Earlier in the day the couple, who became engaged in November, announced they were expecting a baby.
Accompanied by a photograph of herself posing in a Christmas Pudding jumper, Miss Mucklow wrote: 'Making my little pudding'.
Yesterday it was claimed Mr Carroll had been duped out of thousands of pounds by a fraudster purporting to sell Fortnum & Mason hampers and Harrods champagne.
A con-artist was said to have targeted the West Ham player and his manager Sam Allardyce at the team's Essex training grounds, offering cut-priced goods which were never delivered once allegedly paid for.
A Metropolitan Police spokesman told MailOnline the force was investigating reports of fraud in Norwich City, another club said to have been targeted, but that no arrests had been made.
Mr Carroll however denied being caught in the scam, as first reported by the Sun, tweeting: 'My money is safe'.
