Molly-Mae Hague has confirmed she has split from fiancé Tommy Fury following months of off and on again speculation.
The couple, both 25, met on Love Island in 2019 and went on to get engaged and welcome their daughter Bambi in 2023.
Taking to Instagram stories on Wednesday, Molly. 25, wrote: ‘Never in a million years did I think I’d ever 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 a 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’
Molly-Mae’s representative’s declined to comment. MailOnline have contacted Tommy’s representatives.The couple met on series five of Love Island in 2019, finishing in second place.
They became official just weeks after their first villa date and moved in together in Manchester a month after landing back in the UK.
Just last month the pair appeared more loved-up than ever as Tommy gifted Molly-Mae a sweet present to mark their first anniversary since his surprise Ibiza proposal.
The influencer was surprised when her professional boxer partner arrived home with a large bouquet of red roses and lilies for her.
In June, Molly-Mae revealed how she and Tommy’s relationship ‘especially recently’ is amazing, following split rumours.
During an Instagram Q&A, Molly-Mae quashed the claims that parenthood had put a strain on things and even teased the couple’s upcoming wedding date.
After one fan asked: ‘Have you and Tommy faced relationship challenges since having Bambi?’ the influencer was quick to gush over her partner.
She said: ‘I think Bambi has made us closer. Any bickers we have are never actually about her! Parenting together, especially recently has been amazing’.
Then when another asked: ‘2025 wedding?’ she teased: ‘It’s looking that way’ before admitting the couple had no plans to have another baby.
After she was quizzed: ‘Baby no2?’ Molly-Mae said: ‘Not any time soon, wedding first!’.
Tommy admitted earlier in the month that he was in no rush to marry after he popped the question in Ibiza in July 2023.
In a recent interview with Closer magazine, Tommy shared: ‘We’re not putting pressure on it. We’re enjoying being engaged and enjoying that period of our life, so we’re in no rush.’
He continued: ‘I don’t know. You can’t plan things like that. It just happens, doesn’t it?’.
The speculation about their relationship started after Molly-Mae failed to wish Tommy a happy birthday on social media and prior to that had complained of a ‘sex drought’ during a Q&A video.
Tommy is also apparently acting in ways which confuse his middle-class girlfriend.
Molly-Mae reportedly complains of Tommy’s habit of going away with friends that she ‘doesn’t know where he is going’.
He also enjoys drinking alcohol – something Molly-Mae avoids and it was claimed that they had been spending a considerable amount of time away from each other.
A friend said: ‘They are spending time apart quite a bit. They are leading quite separate lives.’
Molly-Mae and Tommy sparked relationship concerns last year when she was seen without her engagement ring on multiple times.
Their ‘rocky patch’ came after Tommy’s wild nights out in Dubai with Chris Brown left Molly-Mae ‘mortified’ by his behaviour but in February she seemingly suggested that Tommy’s secret hand injury is what ’caused so many problems’ within their family.
She said: ‘He didn’t share it with anyone and even with training through the Jake Paul stuff, I wrote a caption on Instagram saying like: “We went through some really hard times as a family” and I feel like the injury was just always causing us so many problems and was always there, but we never spoke about it.
