Inside 'fake world' of Molly-Mae as timing of Tommy Fury drink bombshell infuriates fans
Some Love Island fans are convinced that Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury 'faked' their shock split back in July as part of a clever PR stunt - but the social media star and businesswoman has now denied the claims
by Susan Knox · The MirrorMolly-Mae Hague recently spoke out after fans accused her and Tommy Fury of orchestrating their shock break-up for career progression gains.
However, some fans are not convinced that the pair split for genuine reasons, and instead, they have argued that it was all entirely orchestrated to dramatise Molly-Mae’s long-awaited Amazon Prime documentary.
Social media superstar Molly-Mae, 25, broke the internet back in July when she took to Instagram to confirm that her five-year relationship and her engagement with the former Love Island star, also 25, had come to an abrupt end.
At the time, Molly-Mae - who shares two-year-old daughter Bambi with the professional boxer - said that she was devastated to have to announce the sad news. She said on Instagram at the time: “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.”
What followed was an onslaught of rumours and allegations that Tommy had cheated on his fiancée Molly-Mae - accusations which he vehemently denied. While businesswoman Molly-Mae vowed to never reveal the real reason why she and Tommy ended their love story, she did admit that she was finding life 'tough' being single again.
Tommy denied the cheating allegations at the time, saying: “All the allegations that were made of me recently are completely false. The truth will come out in time and when it does I think a lot of people might regret their actions and unkind words. The whole world will, I reckon."
After spending her first Christmas alone in five years this festive season, on New Year's Eve, a video surfaced of the pair seemingly sharing a passionate kiss as the clock struck midnight into 2025.
Following their New Year’s kiss, Tommy finally came clean on why they had split in the first place - a move that appeared suspicious ahead of Molly-Mae’s tell-all documentary. Finally addressing the reason why they broke up after almost six months of silence, Tommy told Men's Health that the reason behind their break-up was because he had a "problem with alcohol" .
"I couldn't be the partner that I wanted to be anymore," he told the magazine, adding: "Cheating was never a thing. You can ask Molly this yourself. It was the drink, and the drink is not a good thing."
It has been reported that Molly-Mae and Tommy’s ‘reunion’ will feature heavily in her new reality series on Prime, Behind it All and the social media superstar has already hinted that she’s ‘now ready to share’ why she and Tommy split in the first place - as fans will finally get a first-hand insight into what actually happened to the pair’s seemingly perfect romance.
An insider recently told The Mirror that Molly-Mae never stopped loving Tommy, adding fuel to the fire that their split could have been ‘faked’ for career progression and press coverage. She's never stopped loving Tommy," the source said.
"Everyone in Molly’s circle were convinced that they had split for good and they are wary of her getting back with him because of how much he hurt her. Molly insists they’re taking things slowly and still get on because of Bambi, but the truth is she has never stopped loving him and it is still her dream to marry him and have more kids.”
But according to our source, Molly is also very sure about how things should work if she and Tommy, who is heavyweight boxer Tyson Fury ’s brother, are to have a future together - and even has a set of ground rules she wants him to follow if they’re to give it another shot.
“She’s not stupid and she would only let Tommy back into her life in a romantic way if she felt she could fully trust him - and he still has a long way to go to build up that trust again. But he has said he’ll do anything to win her back and will happily follow her rules in a bid to win her back and move home," they said.
However, Molly-Mae has since denied that she and Tommy split was part of a PR stunt. During the premiere of her upcoming documentary Molly-Mae: Behind It All, the mother-of-one opened up about her relationship with the father of her daughter.
She told Mail Online: "I actually say in the documentary that I wish it was a publicity stunt because it would have been a lot easier... That for me above everything has been the most frustrating part.
“Because going through all of this with the turmoil of a breakup has been incredibly hard. To have those comments and I do see the comments, I see all of them, and people saying 'this has obviously just been done for the launch of her brand or a publicity stunt' that is very painful to read because it's real life.
"Tommy and I have a baby together and it's very, very real. It's a really hard thing that we have both gone through the past six months. I wish it was a publicity stunt because it would have been a lot easier, but it isn't, and I think this documentary will clear up any questions of that.
“You see the real side to it; it's like you're a fly on the wall and I think people will be quite surprised by how honest we have been."
