Molly-Mae Hague Struggles to Cope as Tommy Fury and Daughter Bambi, 2, Fall Ill

Molly-Mae Hague has admitted to having a difficult weekend, after both her partner Tommy Fury and their daughter Bambi were taken ill.

The former Love Islander, 26, took to her Instagram Stories on Sunday night to reveal she’d spent the last few days looking after the boxer, also 26, and their two-year-old, after they both caught viral bugs.

She shared a sweet black-and-white snap to sum up her weekend, showing her cuddling Bambi, while lying in bed together.

But despite her smile, in the caption Molly-Mae admitted she was ‘just trying to keep it together’, as she cared for her flu-stricken daughter, while Tommy battled a sickness bug.

She wrote: ‘Wow some weekend that was. Bambi with the flu and Tommy with a sickness bug… and me? Just trying to keep it together.’

It marks the second challenging weekend for the influencer in a month, after she previously revealing she’d been left in tears by Bambi throwing ‘one constant tantrum’ over two days.

Molly-Mae has been very open about the highs and lows of motherhood in her early twenties with her 8.5 million followers.

And last month, she revealed the behind-the-scenes realities of parenting, as she shared heart-warming photo of herself kissing and cuddling her little girl at a coffee shop.

Captioning the shot, she explained how that ‘one cute moment made her forget’ how she was in ‘tears’ earlier in the day as her toddler had been putting her and Tommy ‘through their paces’.

Molly wrote: ‘Toddler: 1, Mummy: 0. Parenthood summed up… an hour before this pic I was in tears a full weekend of basically one constant tantrum…. And then one cute moment makes you forget it all.’

The TV personality continued: ‘She certainly put mum and dad through their paces this weekend.

‘I got cocky and started telling everyone we’d massively turned a corner…. this weekend humbled me.’

While she recently admitted she should have ‘waited a few years’ before starting a family and now feels ‘pressure’ to give her daughter Bambi a sibling.

Speaking to Cosmopolitan in November, Molly-Mae opened up about becoming a mother at such a young age, after Bambi at 23 years old.

She said: ‘I felt like I’d lived so much life by 23, I felt really ready for a new chapter. Tommy and I were in an incredible place, and to have something that was half him, half me, just felt really special.

‘I’ve never had any regrets about starting a family young, but if I could go back and maybe go again, would I have waited a few more years? Potentially.’ 

The star added that she would love more days to just ‘sit and do absolutely nothing,’ as they were great for her mental health.

She also admitted that having a second child is something she constantly thinks about, and she feels a ‘real pressure around it’ because she wants Bambi to have a sibling. 

Molly-Mae reflected on her own close bond with her older sister Zoe, explaining her life ‘wouldn’t have been the same’ without her sibling, and she hopes Bambi experiences the same. 

However, she stressed that she would never ‘do it just for her,’ noting she would want a second child because it is ‘something I want to do’.

She also spoke candidly about the challenges of motherhood and shared her appreciation for Bambi now being a toddler. 

She confessed she would ‘take a toddler over a newborn any day,’ praising the communication, laughs, and understanding that come with this stage. 

Molly-Mae described her daughter as very determined, with strong likes and dislikes, admitting she sometimes ‘loves to push the buttons’.

Yet, she insisted she loves that quality in her little girl, because it shows she is ‘strong’ and ‘knows her mind.’
