Love Island’s Tommy Fury proposed to Molly-Mae just last year – before which Molly-Mae admitted she feared Tommy was cheating on her
Molly-Mae Hague has announced that she has split from Tommy Fury in a heartbreaking statement.
The social media influencer and boxer, both 25, met on Love Island in 2019 and appeared to enjoy a fairytale romance. After buying a £4million Cheshire mansion together, welcoming daughter Bambi and getting engaged last year surrounded by roses, the couple seemed unstoppable.
Sadly, however, their romance has come to an abrupt end, with Molly-Mae sharing her heartbreak with her followers and admitting: “I never imagined our story would end, especially this way.” While she doesn’t reveal the reason for the end of their relationship, Molly-Mae says that she will be “forever grateful” for their daughter.
Taking to Instagram on Wednesday afternoon, she wrote: “Never in a million years did I ever think I’d have to write this. After five years of being together I never imagined our story would end, especially not this way. I am extremely upset to announce that mine and Tommy’s relationship has come to an end.
“I will forever be grateful for the most important thing to me now and always, my beautiful daughter. Without us there would be no her, she will always be my priority.

“I want to thank you all for the love you have shown us over the last five years. You have all been part of our journey and I feel it’s right to share this with you all. Whilst I attempt to navigate the coming days and weeks please kindly respect my privacy over this difficult time, I’ll be back when it feels right. Molly-Mae x.”
The split happened just hours after Molly-Mae posted about her idyllic getaway and had been sharing photos of her room in a lodge on Instagram Stories. She appears to have since deleted the posts.
Tommy has said that he is “heartbroken” by the end of his relationship and has followed up with a separate Instagram story less than an hour later. He said: “I am heartbroken to share that Molly & I have decided to end our relationship.
“The past five years have led to us having our beautiful baby girl, Bambi and I will be forever thankful to Molly for making me a dad. Bambi is our priority. Please respect our privacy, and our families’ privacy, as we navigate our way through this difficult time.”
On his last post with Molly-Mae and his daughter on his Instagram, Tommy is pictured smiling as he holds Bambi in his arms. He captioned the photo from July 8: “My everything in a photo.” The picture has since been flooded with comments from fans demanding to know why they’ve split.

Prior to Tommy’s surprise engagement, Molly-Mae admitted that she thought he was cheating. In a YouTube video last year, she admitted she thought Tommy’s head was turned by another woman as he was ‘being shady’ with his phone on their special day. He wouldn’t allow the star to take a look at a photo on his phone when they were in the car to the proposal location.
Molly-Mae’s last picture of them together as a couple was also at her sister Zoe’s wedding. At the time, Molly-Mae penned: “A weekend of love. Also celebrating half a decade of me and you.” In response, Tommy replied: “Forever and ever, amen.”
Since giving birth to her daughter, she has spoken honestly about the difficulties with motherhood and the struggles she has faced. Earlier this month, she admitted that she had been “solo-parenting” and was finding it hard to get a balance in her life.
She told her following: “I, to be honest with you, have been not feeling… like, I mean this week has just been a lot of emotions.”
Molly-Mae had addressed Tommy’s work commitments, explaining: “When he’s home from doing work and stuff, he’s so incredible and so helpful. I can’t say any different, like, he’s such an incredible dad, but I have been this week, like, just really… mum life has been mum lifeing.”

She went on to discuss her recent struggles, but said it was fine to feel this way, explaining motherhood has a lot of challenges as well as good times. “I feel like we’re going through a little bit of a challenging phase,”she explained. “Not only with Bambi, but also just with me and trying to juggle a lot.”
Molly-Mae was forced to shut down split rumours in May after speculation grew that the couple had gone their separate ways. She had been missing from Tommy’s brother Tyson’s boxing match as the rest of the family gathered to support him. Later, Molly-Mae confirmed that she had been at her sister’s hen do.
Soon after the birth of daughter Bambi, Molly-Mae had broken down in tears in front of fans as she admitted she was “struggling” after becoming a new mum. “I’m trying to be transparent and real about the last two months of my life but I’m also really scared to do that,” she said, sitting down in a quiet room to address fans.
Molly-Mae had said she’d been trying to film a 30-40 minute video to answer all their questions and catch up and tell them how her first weeks of being a mum had been, but when she tried to talk, nothing was coming out.

“I feel like what I’m saying isn’t making sense and I just feel like my brain is jumble and just not my brain anymore. I just don’t feel myself,” she heartbreakingly admitted through streams of tears.
She told fans that she’s wants more than anything to get back to filming her YouTube videos but feels like she’s left it too long and now has too much to say and is “overwhelmed” by trying to offload so much information about how her life has been for the last two months.
Speaking between snivels, she said: “I’m so bunged up because I’m so run down and I can’t get myself better because, obviously, mum life. This is not the video I had in mind today, but I felt as though I have to post something.”
