Molly Mae Hague fans ‘in tears’ over new documentary as she lays bare painful split from Tommy Fury
MOLLY-Mae Hague fans were left ‘in tears’ as she opened up about her split from Tommy Fury in a new documentary.
The former couple, who were runners-up on Love Island in 2019, ended their engagement last year.
Influencer Molly, 25, has a documentary titled Molly Mae: Behind It All, out now on Prime Video.
She discussed the behind the scenes struggle as her and Tommy’s five-year relationship broke down.
Molly revealed: “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.”
The influencer added: “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.”
Fans were left feeling emotional, as they shared reactions on social media.
Taking to X, one wrote: “The Molly Mae documentary has me in tears woww – so powerful & sad #MollyMae #BehindItAll.”
Another added: “the molly mae doc has me crying on episode ONE.”
A third penned: “I’m actually so emotional watching Molly Mae’s documentary keep tearing up! So proud of her #mollymae #mollymaebehinditall.”
Meanwhile, Molly and Tommy welcomed their daughter Bambi in January 2023.
Six months later, they got engaged in a romantic proposal – and had planned to marry this year.
In the long-awaited documentary, Molly admitted that while she didn’t want to break up with her fiancé, she had to.
She told sister Zoe: “I’m not breaking up with him because I don’t love him anymore, I’m breaking up with him because he hasn’t given me a single other choice.”
Continuing, she said: “Even over the last year I’ve been so much more aware of things that have been going on, that I was so naive to for so long and I still don’t think I know the full picture.”
'Molly and Tommy appeared to be picture perfect, their break-up was completely unexpected'

GASPS of horror echoed around our desks as Molly Mae revealed she had split from Tommy.
The break up, after five years, was completely unexpected.
In recent months, the pair had faced rumours he had a roving eye after he was spotted partying with women – all while Molly-Mae was at home holding their baby.
Her statement smacks of something that has yet to come to light.
Although she’s written it with a clever PR eye watching over it, Molly’s devastation spills out in every word.
As I type, my WhatsApp groups are flashing up with texts about how this seemingly rock solid couple have crumbled into nothing.
Just three weeks ago, Molly posted a video of the moment Tommy proposed – after he pulled an elaborate stunt which ended up with him getting down on one knee.
The pair’s relationship, complete with Love Island fan-favourite Ellie Bellie and, later, the arrival of their daughter Bambi, appeared to outsiders to be picture perfect.
Molly has built her brand around her wholesome family life with Tommy.
Cosy photographs are carefully curated for her Instagram grid, with her 7.9million followers poring over her every word as they attempt to emulate her life.
In truth, Molly is one of the only Love Islanders I, along with a number of my friends, follow on social media for her girl next door vibe and stylish fashion picks.
Celebrity breakups are often ten a penny, but there is something shocking about the ending of what, on the surface, appeared to be such a happy relationship.
Earlier this year, at Soccer Aid, Tommy was cagey when asked about their upcoming wedding plans by one of my colleagues.
It wasn’t altogether too strange, as most blokes aren’t overly keen to chat about their missus when they’re with their mates playing football.
But it was a definite gear change from the Tommy many of us have interviewed over the years, as he was always so gushing about his bride-to-be.
Thousands of Molly-Mae’s fans, and no doubt a number of Instagram and Tattle Life sleuths, will now be combing the internet and social media for clues.
And given the number of calls coming into our desk, I have no doubt that the real reason Molly-Mae ended things with Tommy will come to light in the next few hours.
As a genuine fan and follower, I really hope she is being supported by the people who love her most.
Break ups suck at the best of times. But when you’re in the public eye, and you choose to announce your split so suddenly – and clearly without mutual consent – they are a hell of a lot harder.
Fans were stunned in August last year when the pair announced their split.
Molly penned a statement on Instagram at the time, writing: “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.”
Molly-Mae: Behind It All is available to watch on Prime Video.
