Molly-Mae Hague has opened up in a heart-wrenchingly honest admission about how her split from Tommy Fury has affected her relationship with their daughter Bambi. The 25-year-old influencers, who rose to fame on Love Island, announced their separation earlier this year, emphasising that their 20-month-old daughter remained their top concern.
In a recent YouTube video, the Maebe founder revealed her struggles as a single mum during a trip to Dubai with Bambi. She confessed to her followers that she felt "out of her depth" and longed for the "emotional support" of her former partner.
Despite sharing cheerful pictures from their Dubai getaway, Molly-Mae has now shared that things weren't as rosy as they appeared. In her latest video, she expressed: "To be honest with you, it utterly knocked my confidence as a mum because I felt like, over the last few months, I've been getting into a really really good place with motherhood, feeling so confident and feeling really on top of my game, feeling like I've got Bambi sussed."

She continued, detailing her experience: "I know her, I mean I've always known her through and through but, I can do it, I don't need support, I've got this under control."
However, the trip proved challenging as she admitted: "Anyway, Dubai, different story. I was so out of my depth, literally the whole plane journey on the way there I was nearly in tears."
She revealed: "In Dubai, I really felt like a single parent. I've massively noticed the missing piece of the puzzle, like that, of your partner, and that emotional support and the physical support also of a father."
Tommy has been adjusting to life on his own since moving out of the £3.5m mansion he shared with Molly-Mae and Bambi, giving fans a glimpse into his new bachelor pad on social media. Just last week, he posted an Insta snap chilling on a lush grey sofa in his living room, which boasts a chic white fireplace, stylish grey walls, and a cosy beige carpet – even cheekily asking his followers if it's too soon for Christmas flicks.
Despite the "very tough" recent months post-split, Tommy's love for Molly remains unshaken. The lad is now shelling out a whopping £15,000 a month for his new digs, as per The Sun.
On a recent stint on This Morning, while plugging his book 'Lightning Can Strike Twice: My Life as a Fury', Tommy tackled the cheating rumours head-on, stating he "categorically denies" them. Chatting with Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley on the ITV show, he said: "Like I say, I'm going to leave all that stuff for me and Molly to work through. Because a lot of stuff has been put out there. The whole world has seen what we've been going through for the last month or two months."
Grilled on whether he outright dismisses the cheating rumours in his memoir, he asserted: "Yeah, I added a last chapter in there and I talked about all my feelings on how I felt during this time."
Expanding on his choice to refresh his book, he remarked: "It's all in the book and I felt freely in the book to speak, so that's why I added the last chapter in. To keep everyone up to date."
