Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury announced their split after five years together yesterday. Since their unexpected statements, there has been speculation as to why their relationship ended, and the resurfacing of recent comments.

Fans were shocked as the couple, who first met on Love Island in 2019, confirmed the end of their relationship in a shock statement.

In the social media posts, the couple both referenced the love they have for their daughter Bambi, one, and their dedication to making their only child a ‘priority’.

Molly-Mae’s statement emphasised her disbelief that it had reached this point and got fans speculating about the cause of the breakup.

‘I never imagined our story would end, especially not this way,’ she candidly shared.

Fans are baffled as to what could have caused the breakup of the decade and have questioned why this golden couple have parted ways.

Rumours have already begun circling about cheating, with reports also suggesting that Tommy has already moved out of their dream home they purchased together in 2022.

But here’s what we know for sure, so far…

Clashing Statements

In her statement, Molly-Mae hinted at why the Love Island couple had split: ‘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.’

She continued: ‘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.’

This is the announcement that sparked national uproar and infidelity rumours.

In contrast, Tommy had a much shorter statement that echoed his ex-fiancée’s sentiments but without any hint at the reason behind their split.

‘I am heartbroken to share that Molly & I have decided to end our relationship.

‘The past 5 years led to us having our beautiful baby girl, Bambi & I will be forever thankful to Molly for making me a dad. Bambi is our priority.

‘Please respect our privacy, and our family’s privacy, as we navigate our way through this difficult time.’

Rumours begin swirling

On July 25, just three weeks before announcing their breakup, Molly-Mae called Tommy the ‘love of her life’.

Of course, nobody thought anything of this at the time but since the breakup was announced fans have been scratching their heads about what could have possibly caused such a huge turnaround.

Sources have spoken out claiming there was infidelity at play. A source told The Sun: ‘Molly-Mae is now aware Tommy was unfaithful to her.

‘She believes it has happened a number of times. It seems he would play away when he knew people wouldn’t recognise him.

‘Molly-Mae is absolutely heartbroken and says she fully expects that other women are going to come forward and speak to her about him being unfaithful.’

The source added that the star was completely ‘crushed’ by the news of her partner’s cheating.

It was then reported that Tommy had already moved out of their dream home together.

‘The decision was made for him to go properly,’ an insider told The Sun, adding: ‘Molly is completely heartbroken and is holed up with her nearest and dearest at the moment.

‘It’s been incredibly difficult and she just didn’t want him in the house anymore.’

The intense rumours have even resulted in wild accusations. Lissie Rhodes, an influencer who holidayed in Dubai at the same time as Tommy and whose father was a boxer, was forced to take to TikTok to tell fans that her pregnancy had nothing to do with Tommy Fury.

‘Tommy Fury is not my baby’s dad,’ she commented on one of her videos following intense speculation from fans in the comment section of her video.

As the rumours mount, social media analytics firm Coveragely revealed that the breakup caused a dent in Tommy’s social standing as he lost 20,000 followers across his social media platforms – suggesting fans are believing the speculation, or have less interest in him now that he’s not the partner of Molly-Mae.

Living Separate Lives

On August 7, just a week before their split was announced, Molly-Mae posted a YouTube video in which she said she had been ‘struggling’ and ‘solo parenting’ Bambi in recent weeks.

‘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 life-ing.

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

The star then added: ‘I feel like we’re going through a little bit of a challenging phase. Not only with Bambi, but also just with me and trying to juggle a lot.’

These comments seemed to suggest that there was perhaps something more going on under the surface of their picture-perfect life together.

Supported by friends

Since the split was announced, Molly-Mae has reportedly been supported by her friends who are keen to look after her.

A friend told The Sun newspaper that Anouska Santos, who is dating England footballer Luke Shaw, has been a ‘rock’.

‘Anouska is like a rock for Molly and she was there with her today when she pressed post on her split statement.

‘Molly wanted a steady hand by her side and Anouska has been a great support to her.

‘She has told Molly that she will always be there to help and has offered to help out with Bambi at the drop of a hat,’ the source added.

On Thursday the star was seen in a car with two friends visiting a McDonald’s drive-thru near the Cheshire home. A small group of friends have been seen visiting the TV personality at her home, including her long-time manager Francesca Britton.
