So what REALLY happened between Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury? Mystery deepens over shock split after couple shared loved-up snaps mere hours before breakup announcement

Fans have been left bewildered after Molly-Mae Hague announced her split from Tommy Fury on Wednesday after five years together. 

The Love Island pair, both 25, had faced split speculation at the start of the year but in recent weeks they seemed to be stronger than ever. 

Fans have speculated that Tommy was blindsided by the breakup, as recent posts on his social media accounts gave no indication their relationship was over. 

In contrast, Molly-Mae hinted at trouble in their relationship as she posted pictures without her engagement ring on. 

On July 23, the influencer seemed to still be smitten with Tommy as she celebrated the one year anniversary of his proposal by reposting a video of the moment.

Alongside the black and white video, she penned: 'One year ago today I was tricked into going on a fake brand trip on which the love of my life would ask me to marry him.'

Her next post, on August 8, hinted that she had troubles on her mind as she wrote: 'Had an accidental break from posting. Back now.'

However, she looked in good spirits in the post - pictures of her in a cafe - and was still wearing her engagement ring.  

The following day, however, her engagement ring was off as she posted pictures trying on 'the suit of dreams' in her dressing room.  

Her latest post, on August 12, also saw her without her ring as she posted an advert for Bentley cars. 

Tommy's posts, however, hinted at no issue between the pair. 

On the same day Molly-Mae was posting without her ring for Bentley, Tommy took to Facebook to share a loved-up snap of the pair, captioned: 'What would I do without her'. 

And just hours before Molly-Mae announced their split, Tommy seemed to have no indication that their split was coming because he posted smitten snaps. 

The pictures showed the sportsman doting on his daughter Bambi before heading out for a dessert date with the reality star.

It comes as a resurfaced clip also showed Molly-Mae sharing her fears that Tommy was cheating on her, just hours before they got engaged in July 2023.

Molly-Mae admitted she became concerned after seeing that Tommy had become protective of his phone.

Speaking in a video posted on her YouTube channel, she said: 'My mind did somersaults, I thought, 'Why is he shady about his phone who is he talking to?'

'My mind went to the worst option. I was staring out the window like I was in a sad movie.'

It comes after Molly-Mae shared the shock news that she had split from fiancé Tommy following months of off and on again speculation.

The couple, met on Love Island in 2019 and went onto get engaged and welcome their daughter Bambi in 2023. 

Taking to Instagram Stories to share the bombshell statement 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.

Elsewhere, Molly-Mae candidly admitted she'd been 'solo parenting' her daughter Bambi in recent weeks, in her last YouTube video before announcing her split from Tommy, which she posted on August 7. 

She explained that Tommy had been predominantly absent from their family home while he was recording his audiobook.

Molly-Mae added: 'Actually I've been solo parenting for like, two weeks now, basically because Tommy's just been so busy.

'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. 

'I just feel like, at the minute I've been struggling a little bit.'

Fans have also been left distraught at the end of the love story - demanding to know what happened and fuming they won't get to see 'the wedding of the year'. 

They said: 'Molly Mae and Tommy splitting up is how I imagine it felt when Charles and Diana split up for our parents.',

'Molly Mae and Tommy have broken up WHAT HAPPENED #loveIsland.',

'fiat 500 twitter trying to get to the bottom of why molly mae and tommy fury have split up.',

A stark warning from Tommy's ex has also been unearthed amid the Love Island couple's shocking split.

Millie Roberts, 27, who was in a relationship with him for two years, reportedly confessed to the Sun in 2019 that he was 'controlling and aggressive' and 'will cheat on her.'

At the time Millie told the publication: 'He's really controlling. Whenever I would go out and if I wasn't home by midnight he would text me 'We're done,' 'It's over, on my mum's life' 'you dirty cheat, you f***ing slipped up' 'I want nothing to do with you' – he's aggressive in how he talks to people.

'If another guy looked at me on a night out it would be a big kicking and screaming situation and if I stayed late at work he would accuse me of sleeping with someone.' 

Millie then told the publication that during a trip to Marbella he was allegedly 'nasty and horrible' to her because she was in a bikini. 

She said that he called 'a f***ing scruff from Salford' and that she was a 'nobody'. 

During one set of texts between the ex-pair, seen by the Sun, Tommy allegedly demanded Millie to send him photographs of the seats next to her on the plane. 

He reportedly did not want her to prove that she was not sat next to a man.

Millie confessed her warning to the Sun during the time the boxer was on Love Island and was making a connection with Molly. 

In March 2022, Molly Mae and Tommy moved into a lavish £4 million six-bedroom home in Cheshire which boasts a luxurious contemporary design, 5,000 sq ft of land, and a tranquil garden.

The couple had moved into the home shortly after a £800,000 burglary in their previous flat in Hale, Manchester left them terrified in October 2021.

Sources previously revealed to MailOnline that the couple would 'never return' to the property after being left 'extremely shaken up' and terrified by the crime

A few months ago in April, the Filter by Molly Mae founder suggested the young family were thinking about putting the Cheshire house up for auction and setting roots elsewhere. 

But now as the couple have called it a day, they are now faced with the bleak reality of dividing the life they built together. 

Couples who are engaged usually have similar rights to cohabiting couples, meaning they can't make financial claims like married couples can under the Matrimonial Causes Act. 

So when it comes to their lavish mansion, a smooth transition will boil down to a number of factors including whose names are on the deeds of the home.

Weronika Husejko from McAllister Family Law  said : 'In terms of any property that the pair own together, any disputes in relation to this would be treated as a "ToLATA'"claim. 

'This is because the Trusts of Land and Appointment of Trustees Act 1996 is the legislation which deals with disputes relating to the ownership of property or land.

'In a situation where the property was purchased by both of them and it is clear from the title deeds how the property is held, there is less scope for dispute. 

'However, if one of their names are not on the title deeds, it can become more complicated and will depend upon a number of facts.'

After jetting away from the Love Island villa, the pair quickly raked in the cash and are said to be worth a staggering £9 million. 

However with her lucrative creative director title at PrettyLittleThing, which saw her earn £400,000-a-week - Molly's net worth alone reportedly stands at £6 million.

The influencer is also believed to earn £2million-a-year and can secure a £20,000 fee for a single Instagram post.

Alongside her incredible social media earnings, the star has a long list of lucrative businesses including her tanning brand Filter as well as being able to earn £10,000 for joint appearances with Tommy. 

Last October PR experts believed Tommy was well on track to make an eye-watering £10 million by 2025 due to social media driven events such as his boxing matches with KSI and Jake Paul. 

The boxer received a £1.1million fee to fight KSI last year and £1.6 million to fight it out against social media personality Jake Paul. 

From his match with Jake Paul he also earned 35 per cent of the PPV money, so in total, the 24-year-old earned £3.7million. 

With her lucrative title as creative director of Pretty Little Thing, as well as brand deals galore, Molly Mae is said to be worth £6 million alone

Outside of boxing much like his ex-fiancée Tommy also explored various ventures and is set to launch his memoir Lightning Can Strike Twice this coming October.

According to Companies House,  the couple have kept their businesses completely separate. 

However Jason Stanley who is a partner at McAllister Family Law told MailOnline that the future of how their finances will be divided is still unclear.

He told MailOnline: 'There is no guarantee of what the future looks like for Molly-Mae, Tommy or Bambi. 

'Following the breakup the ex-couple will need to look at housing, finances and most importantly, child care arrangements.

He added: 'As two high net worth individuals, their finances could be complicated and much will depend on how they own property, how they have managed or protected their wealth such as a pre-nup or cohabitation agreement. 

'It is understood that Molly and Tommy were engaged to marry and they may have entered into a pre-nup agreement to protect wealth that they have brought to the relationship after marriage.'

However according to Mr Stanley, a pre-nup would only be able to be signed if a wedding date had been agreed. 

'Alternatively they may have been advised to enter into a cohabitation agreement as there is currently no specific law dedicated to unmarried breakups,' he continued. 

'If they have blindly pooled their resources with no pre-nup or cohabitation agreement, one of them after separation might live to regret it.'

The split news comes just two months after Molly-Mae told her Instagram fans that she and Tommy - the younger brother of former heavyweight champion Tyson Fury - were planning to tie the knot in 2025 and that they had been closer than ever after becoming parents to Bambi.

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.'

The pair got engaged in July 2023 when Tommy staged a surprise proposal during a trip to Ibiza, and presented Molly-Mae with a £600,000 ring.

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.

Molly-Mae reportedly complained 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 has historically avoided 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.

In October 2023, Tommy's behaviour raised eyebrows among fans after he was spotted partying with girls and unlikely pal Chris Brown in Abu Dhabi. 

 The boxer sparked concern between his and Molly-Mae's fans after he was spotted in a clip being targeted by an attractive brunette - who playfully grabbed his face as he dances directly behind her.

In the TikTok clip, the girl is seen grabbing his face and squeezing his cheeks before Tommy turned his head away.

He then turns back to look at the female as she carried on dancing amongst a crowd of other revellers in the club. 

The behaviour didn't impress Molly, with a source telling The Sun: 'Molly has made no secret of the fact she doesn't like it when Tommy parties too hard.

'This weekend has ended up being a real embarrassment to her. She was mortified when she kept getting tagged in videos while she was just trying to enjoy a festive weekend with Bambi.'

The insider concluded: 'She has told Tommy it really has to stop now he's a dad and has told him to ditch some of his pals, who she thinks are a bad influence.' 

When Tommy returned to the UK he shared a snap of Bambi wearing a cosy white dressing gown and sticking her tongue out while sat on the floor in their home. 

Tommy penned: 'Oh how I've missed that cheeky face.' 

But Molly-Mae was noticeably absent in the picture and he failed to mention her.

While Tommy enjoyed a solo holiday, Molly-Mae remained in Manchester with their young daughter, where she was first seen without her engagement ring. 

Molly-Mae posted a picture without her engagement ring to her Instagram Stories while enjoying a festive day with her daughter Bambi.

The influencer was without her £600,000 sparkler as her husband-to-be lived it up in the UAE.

She also took to social media to share a video on her Stories to promote a Black Friday sale with activewear brand Gymshark, and her diamond ring was noticeably absent from her finger.

In December, Molly-Mae sparked concern when she teared up and admitted she's 'been going through it' as she is seen without her engagement ring again. 

She explained: 'Guys, I don't really know what to come on here and tell you right now. I know how bad I look. Trust me, however bad I look, I feel 20 times worse.

'I have been going through it in more ways than one.

'I am hoping, in say about a week, I might be in a place mentally, physically emotionally where I can start filming some proper content for you guys again and get back on my channel.

'So please bear with me, I am really desperate to come back to you guys. I love you guys and I will speak to you very soon.'

Molly-Mae has previously made no secret of her dislike of watching Tommy in the ring and stayed away from the TV during his fight with Jake Paul last February.

While she sweetly broke down in tears upon hearing of his win at the time, new mother Molly-Mae couldn't bear to actually watch Tommy in the ring.

She stayed in the UK with their newborn daughter Bambi, who was born just weeks earlier, while Tommy jetted off for his much-anticipated showdown with Jake. 

But she didn't watch the fight on TV, with her sister Zoe sharing a clip of her taking shelter in her bedroom while her family and friends watched the clash.

Speaking in 2022 after watching Tommy fight Daniel Bocianski, Molly-Mae admitted she finds it 'horrible' watching her partner get punched in the ring. 

'I don't actually watch him – I watch the screen, that's my way of dealing with it,' she told BT Sport at the time.

'To watch him in the flesh, it feels much harder. I watch him on the screen and that relieves a little bit of the stress, but I have got nail marks on my arm where they have been digging in.'

'It's just horrible. I would not wish it on my worst enemy honestly. The fear of watching your person in the ring is not nice. It really isn't,' she added.

Molly-Mae and Tommy met on Love Island in 2019 and welcomed their daughter Bambi in January of this year. They then got engaged just months later in July.

Meanwhile Tommy said on BBC Breakfast: 'She watches the ground while I fight. She only tolerates boxing because she knows how happy it makes me. That's it. 

'Other than that she hates it. She doesn't like talking about it, she doesn't like watching it, nothing, which I can understand.' 

 

 Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury's romance: How love-split couple had first date in a Love Island hot-tub - before welcoming baby Bambi and getting engaged three years later

While most Love Island couples barely make it two months on the outside, Molly-Mae and Tommy Fury defied all the odds and, for a while, made you believe that TV producers might just be the best match makers. 

However, that may no longer be the case for the beloved 'it' couple, as Molly-Mae confirmed in a cryptic Instagram post, that they have finally called it quits on their five-year relationship.

From a steamy first date in a hot tub in June 2019, to a dramatic robbery, welcoming their first child and an idyllic proposal - where did it all go wrong? 

MailOnline takes a look back at the ups and downs of reality TVs favourite couple. 

 

Sparks fly in the Love Island villa 

Back in 2019 the pair met when Molly came into the villa on day four as a bombshell. Tommy had been exploring things with Lucie Donlan, but quickly expressed his 'intrigue' in the new girl. 

Waiting in the villa's hot tub after the public chose Tommy to be her first date, Tommy declared 'you're 100% my type'. 

They hit is off immediately, and the next day - much to Lucie's fury - coupled up. 

The duo later got locked in a love triangle with Anton Danyluk, while Molly-Mae also expressed interest in late arrival Danny Williams.

Here she is! Molly-Mae enters the Love Island villa on Day Four, having described her dream man before her arrival, saying: 'Definitely someone that can make me laugh. Laughing is my favourite thing, I have to be constantly laughing!'

Her union with Tommy proved too strong however and Molly-Mae looked to have chosen Tommy before drama stuck again.

Things went on to shaky ground when Molly-Mae's now best friend Maura Higgins entered the villa and set her sights on Tommy. Despite divulging that the hunky boxer gave her 'fanny flutters', his heart stayed with Molly-Mae.

However, having successfully fought off other suitors, the couple went from strength to strength.  

Inside the villa, Tommy asked Molly-Mae to be his girlfriend by pinning a note on her beloved teddy 'Ellie Belly'. After this, they enjoyed a steamy night in the Hideaway.

Soon after they professed their love for one another for the first time and vowed to move to Manchester together. 

Fast forward to Day 58, Tommy and Molly-Mae were crowned the runner-ups of the season, while now-exes Amber Gill and Greg O’Shea were victorious.

Start of life on the outside 

By September 2019 sportsman Tommy had revealed the pair set up home in Manchester. He told The Sun: 'We're both really happy. We've bought an apartment in Manchester and we're going to move in together.

'We haven't said a cross word to each other, ever. We don't have arguments. There's no hassle, we're just laid back. Whatever's meant to be in life, is meant to be.'

Things seemed to be perfect for the loved up pair as Moolly-Mae shared snaps to her Instagram page supporting Tommy at his first fight.
