Reality TV star Tommy Fury has finally revealed the reason his engagement to Molly-Mae Hague ended and claims it had nothing to do with infidelity.
In a new interview, the former Love Island star blames his dependency on alcohol after sustaining a boxing injury for the split last year and denies he ever cheated on the mother of his daughter – slamming the rumours and online speculation as ‘complete and utter b***ocks.’
Tommy and Molly-Mae met in the Love Island villa in 2019 and went on to welcome daughter Bambi Fury into the world in January 2023. Boxer Tommy popped the question a few months later but in August last year, fans were stunned when Molly-Mae announced the end of their engagement.
However, the pair were spotted sharing a kiss at a star-studded New Year’s Eve party and it looks like a reunion is on the cards – just in time for the premiere of Molly-Mae’s new Amazon Prime series. Amid speculation the split was a publicity stunt, Tommy has opened up about why he and Molly-Mae ended things last year.

“The reason why me and Molly broke up was because I got addicted to alcohol and I couldn’t be the partner that I wanted to be anymore,” Tommy tells Men’s Health Magazine. “It kills me to say it, [but] it’s true, I couldn’t. I loved a pint of beer, loved to drink, and it is what it is. People go through different things in life and we all have our crosses to bear. I’ve got mine to bear.”
Tommy then explains to the publication how his issues with booze began after he snapped the ligaments in his hand in 2019, which eventually led to reconstructive surgery at the start of last year. He admits his “mental health was in the pan” after the operation and he felt a part of his identity was removed when he could no longer box or train.
“I’ve only lived for training and my family, and that was all snatched away from me. So what I did for fun is I started to drink quite a lot. I found that’s what made me feel better,” the dad-of-one recalls. “I wanted the endorphins that I’d get when I’d finish a good session, when I’d finish sparring, when I’d finish fighting.”
He goes on to admit that his relationship with Molly-Mae began to suffer thanks to his “black-out drunk” drinking sessions – which saw him party with controversial American singer Chris Brown in August – but despite going to a dark place, he never cheated on Molly-Mae and maintained his close relationship with their young daughter.

“Cheating was never a thing. You can ask Molly this yourself. It was the drink, and the drink is not a good thing. You need to get a grip of it,” Tommy says. “If you’re in the same spot as me, where you just think that it’s going to cure all your problems, it doesn’t. You wake up even worse and you want to drink more to try and feel happy again. That’s the cycle of it.”
Molly-Mae has previously admitted she doesn’t have the best relationship with alcohol and therefore rarely drinks. In her 2022 memoir, Becoming Molly-Mae, the mum-of-one details her own mother’s booze battles in the wake of a split. Molly-Mae was just 14 when her parents, Stephen Hague and Debbie Gordon, announced their separation, leaving the former reality TV star “heartbroken” and feeling like her “greatest fear had come true”.
“The period after my parents split was really, really hard,” she admits in her memoir, Becoming Molly-Mae. She further reveals how her mum started “playing catch-up in terms of what she missed out on”, joining dating websites and enjoying nights out. “In that first year after the divorce, Mum really struggled. For a very short while just after the divorce, she turned to alcohol to cope with the pain of the breakdown of their marriage,” Molly-Mae shares.
“Which sort of explains why I am the way I am with alcohol – I pretty much avoid it. I associate these difficult times after my parents’ divorce with alcohol being involved and my mum drinking too much – understandably, because her marriage had broken down.” The Instagram influencer also confesses that she felt she had to care for her mother for a while, describing that period as a “kind of role reversal”.
