The reality star, 31, admitted she is 'anxious' about her tremor for when she walks down the aisle as her dad also suffers with the neurological disorder which 'gets worse with nerves'

An essential tremor is a common, often inherited neurological disorder causing involuntary, rhythmic shaking. 

It primarily affects the hands and arms during movement (action tremor) and can also impact the head, voice, or legs.

Symptoms typically worsen with age, stress, or caffeine, though they generally stop during sleep.

It comes after Molly showed off her jaw-dropping figure in a white bikini as she posed for sizzling Instagram snaps during her lavish Ibiza hen do last month. 

Molly celebrated in style with her pals as she hit the beach on the party island in a personalised strapless white bikini which boasted 'Return to Tom' on the bottoms.

Styling her blonde tresses in loose waves, the TV personality opted for a woven cowgirl hat as she soaked up the sun and sipped on cocktails.

Molly added a sheer white 'Mrs Clare' sarong over the racy two-piece as she fanned herself with a 'In my bridal era' fan.

In the evening, the bombshell slipped into a sexy white lace dress which boasted a sheer long skirt as she headed for dinner at the beach.

Molly toted her belongings in a £3,850 gold crystal Prada handbag and flashed her dazzling engagement ring as the sun set over the ocean.

The stunner couldn't contain her smile as she posed up a storm for photos with her pals, who were all dressed in pink and orange.

The stag do have since gave an insight into their boozy trip as they revealed the staggering amount they spent on beach parties.

Speaking on Tom's NearlyWeds podcast, Casey said: 'We went over minimum spend at the pool parties but not by much and it was worth it. Those bottles of tequila were worth it.

'I think minimum spend for the pool parties was about $3,500? $4,000? I think we went to about $6,000 on the first beach club. Then second beach club we hit about…'

Viewers became invested in the possibility of Molly and Callum rekindling their three-year relationship, but the fitness model pursued her romantic connection with Tom instead.

Callum and Eve split weeks after the show finished amid reports he cheated with another woman, which Callum insisted was untrue because the couple had already separated.

Since winning All Stars, Molly has secured several lucrative deals including with clothing retailer boohoo, US fitness supplement Alani Nu, jewellery brand Abbott Lyon and global makeup giants L'Oréal Paris and Maybelline.

Speaking to the Daily Mail last year, Molly said: 'You know sometimes when you think, 'Is this too good to be true?' I don't like jinxing things but right now I can't fault our relationship.

'Moving in together is the next step, we are practically living together as is... we just haven't made it official yet.

Essential Tremor 

According to the Mayo Clinic, an essential tremor is a nervous system condition, also known as a neurological condition. 

It causes rhythmic shaking that you can't control. Essential tremor can affect almost any part of the body, but the trembling happens most often in the hands. 

The trembling occurs especially when doing simple tasks, such as drinking from a glass or tying shoelaces.

Essential tremor usually is not a dangerous condition. However, it typically worsens over time and can be severe for some people. 

Other conditions don't cause essential tremor, but essential tremor sometimes is confused with Parkinson's disease.

Essential tremor can happen at any age but is most common in people age 40 and older.

Symptoms typically worsen with age, stress, or caffeine, though they generally stop during sleep.
