Molly-Mae has confirmed that she has split from fiancé Tommy Fury after months of speculation.
The couple, both 25, met on Love Island in 2019, got engaged and welcomed their daughter Bambi in 2023.
On Wednesday, 25-year-old Molly wrote in Instagram stories: “Never in my life did I think I would ever have to write this.”
“After five years together, I never thought our story would end, especially not in this way.”
“I am extremely saddened to announce that my relationship with Tommy has come to an end.

On Wednesday, 25-year-old Molly wrote in Instagram stories: “Never in my life did I think I would ever have to write this.”
“I will be forever grateful for the most important thing to me now and always will be: my beautiful daughter. Without us she would not be here, 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 part of our journey and I feel it is right to share this with you all.”
“As I try to navigate the next few days and weeks, please respect my privacy during this difficult time. I will come back when it feels right. Molly-Mae x’
The couple met in the fifth season of Love Island in 2019 and finished in second place.
Just weeks after their first date in the villa, things became official, and a month after returning to the UK, they moved in together in Manchester.
In June, Molly-Mae revealed that her and Tommy’s relationship was great “especially recently” after rumors of a split.
During a Q&A session on Instagram, Molly-Mae dismissed claims that parenthood had been a strain on the couple and even hinted at the couple’s upcoming wedding date.
When a fan asked, “Have you and Tommy had relationship problems since Bambi was born?”, the influencer immediately started raving about her partner.
She said: “I think Bambi has brought us closer together. When we argue, it’s never really about her! Being a parent together, especially recently, has been great.”

“I want to thank you all for the love you have shown us over the last five years. You have all been part of our journey and I feel it is right to share this with you all.”
Then when another person asked, “Wedding in 2025?” she teased, “It looks like it,” before admitting that the couple have no plans to have another baby.
When asked “Baby number 2?” Molly-Mae replied: “Not anytime soon, first comes the wedding!”
Tommy admitted earlier this month that he was in no hurry to get married after proposing to her in Ibiza in July 2023.
In a recent interview with Closer magazine, Tommy said: “We’re not putting any pressure on ourselves. We’re enjoying our engagement and this time of our lives, so we’re not in a rush.”
He continued, “I don’t know. You can’t plan something like that. It just happens, right?”
Speculation about their relationship began after Molly-Mae failed to wish Tommy a happy birthday on social media and previously complained about a “sex drought” in a question-and-answer video.
Additionally, Tommy appears to be behaving in a way that confuses his middle-class girlfriend.
Molly-Mae reportedly complains about Tommy’s habit of going out with friends, saying she doesn’t know where he is going.
He also enjoys drinking alcohol – something Molly-Mae avoids, and it has been claimed that the two spend a lot of time apart.
A friend said: “They spend quite a lot of time apart. They lead quite separate lives.”
Molly-Mae and Tommy’s relationship raised concerns last year when she was seen several times without an engagement ring.
Their “difficult patch” came after Tommy’s wild nights in Dubai with Chris Brown left Molly-Mae “embarrassed” by his behaviour, but in February she seemingly hinted that Tommy’s secret hand injury was the reason for “so many problems” within their family.
She said: “He didn’t share it with anyone and even at training during the Jake Paul thing, I wrote a caption on Instagram saying ‘we’ve been through a really tough time as a family’ and I feel like the injury has just always caused us so many problems and has always been there but we never talked about it.”
