‘I begged him not to drink at my sister’s wedding’ sobs Molly Mae as she details Tommy Fury’s ‘disastrous’ boozing
MOLLY-MAE Hague begged Tommy Fury to not drink at her sister’s wedding after revealing that problems related to his boozing were behind their painful split in August.
In scenes broadcast on her new warts-and-all Prime Video documentary, Molly Mae: Behind It All, she sobs as she recalls pleading with the boxer to ditch the alcohol during her sister Zoe’s big day in July.
Not holding back, the influencer, 25, struggles to hold back tears as she recalls his “disastrous” drinking that caused problems in their relationship.
Opening up about how her memories of her sister Zoe’s wedding day were ruined by Tommy’s drinking, she says: “At my sister’s wedding I literally begged him, I pleaded with him to not drink.
“And … it’s just really sad … I don’t know why I’m crying now. It’s just so sad. It just affected me.”
During the candid opening episode, the former Love Island star talks to her mum, Debbie, in the £3.5m mansion she used to share with Tommy and reveals the full extent of her struggle behind the scenes as their five year relationship broke down.
“He wanted to have a family life but also have the life of a 25 year old boy with no responsibilities and the two don’t go hand in hand,” she says. “He’s never had an alcohol problem, it’s just that alcohol caused problems for us.
“It got to a point where I wasn’t really looking forward to anything because alcohol affected it so much.”
And when her mum admits she can “only cite a couple of examples where he’s had some alcohol and it’s not led to anything disastrous” Molly hits back: “I can’t think of any.”
Tommy and Molly’s shock split came in August last year when she posted a statement to Instagram, telling fans: “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.”
He was later accused of cheating on her with a ‘blonde stranger’ on a lads’ holiday to Macedonia – something Tommy has repeatedly denied.
The former Love Island star admitted yesterday that alcohol and partying was behind his split from the star, saying: “We broke up because I had a problem with alcohol and I couldn’t be the partner that I wanted to be anymore.
“It kills me to say it, but I couldn’t. I loved a pint of beer, loved to drink.”
But clearly, things aren’t over between them yet.
Yesterday, Tommy revealed he’s beaten his battle with booze and is back on the straight and narrow, while Molly admits in the documentary that: “What’s getting me through is the hope that Tommy and I will end up back together.”
Molly Mae: Behind It All is available to stream on Prime Video now.
Molly-Mae's glow-down from ‘glamour model’ to ‘yummy mummy’
Celebrity PR Expert, Ed Hopkins told Fabulous: “I believe Molly-Mae Hague‘s new look is more than just a style change but a powerful statement of who she is becoming.
“It underscores her journey towards authenticity, maturity, and sophistication and is likely to enhance her success and influence in the years to come.”
Brand and Culture Expert Nick Ede agreed, and told Fabulous: “Molly-Mae has transformed herself into a yummy mummy who has ditched the glamour model style for a more relaxed and natural look.
“She’s becoming more down to earth and relatable to people and cleverly showing a softer side which will win her legions more fans in the process.”
According to Ed Hopkins, Molly-Mae’s chic new look could be “highly lucrative” for the star.
Ed told Fabulous: “Molly-Mae Hague’s transformation towards a more natural, chic look seems to be a testament to her personal growth and evolving style.
“This change, which has become more pronounced since she became a mother, appears to reflect her journey towards embracing authenticity and sophistication.
“It’s possible that this new image could be highly lucrative for Molly-Mae.
“Her chic, understated style might appeal to a wider audience, including more mature demographics and high-end brands, potentially opening up lucrative endorsement deals and partnerships.
“By adopting a more elegant look, she seems to align herself with premium and luxury brands that favour natural beauty and sophistication, which could lead to higher-paying collaborations.
“Additionally, with consumers increasingly valuing authenticity and natural beauty, her new image could be both timely and marketable.”
Nick Ede agreed and told Fabulous: “She has started to promote some really great luxury brands including the cosmetics brand Tatcha and with her laid back look she will make a lot of money from brands looking to align with her.”
Ed also noted that Molly-Mae’s transformation may be a sign that she is looking to step away from her reality show past.
He continued: “Molly-Mae’s transformation also seems to symbolise her desire even more so to well and truly step out of the shadow of her Love Island persona.
“The shift to a more mature and unique style appears to demonstrate her growth and her wish to be seen as an individual beyond her reality TV beginnings.
“By shedding the bold, flashy look associated with her time on Love Island, she might be rebranding herself as a serious businesswoman and influencer who is carving out her own identity.
“This new look helps her stand out in the crowded influencer market, showcasing her as a trendsetter with a distinctive, refined aesthetic.”
Nick agreed and claimed: “Shedding the flash looks she previously went for, she’s also detaching herself from the Love Island stereotype and stepping out as her own person with a cool look that’s not flashy but totally on trend.
“Gone are the ‘look at me’ posts and in are family style posts and trend led fashion statements.”
