JUST when we thought sportsmen infidelity couldn’t get any worse, Tommy Fury makes a late (but strong) entrance to the tosser of the year competition.
The pro boxer, 25, reportedly cheated on influencer and businesswoman Molly-Mae Hague, also 25, “a number of times” while she was sitting at home “holding the baby”.
Gen Z-ers have been absolutely reeling since she announced the end of their relationship on Instagram yesterday.
And now, a friend close to the couple has confirmed Tommy’s infidelity and said that the mum-of-one “fully expects that other women are going to come forward” with allegations.
On the surface, Molly-Mae was living in a picture-perfect fairytale.
She had a stunning £4 million Cheshire home, a hugely successful career (both on social media and through her own business ventures) and a beautiful baby girl, Bambi, now one.
When Tommy put a £600,000 ring on her finger eight months after Bambi was born, it was presumably the icing on her seemingly perfect cake.
Just a year later though, she’s found herself as a single mum.
As Molly-Mae begins to navigate a new version of parenting without Tommy under the same roof, the future must feel extremely daunting.
But will it come as a shock? I doubt it.
The cracks have been showing in the Hague-Fury camp for some time, with Molly-Mae openly admitting that she is a “solo parent”.
For months, the pair have been swatting off cheating rumours and the mum-of-one has been snapped without her six-figure engagement ring on a number of occasions
While she might have had suspicions of Tommy’s infidelity then, it’s clear to me that something too big for her to ignore has happened now.
Looking back at social media vlogs and candid admissions Molly-Mae has made over the last two years, I agree with social media sleuths that their relationship was doomed from the moment she fell pregnant.
Despite his huge (but clearly hollow) declaration of commitment with a lavish Ibiza proposal last summer, Tommy has made it abundantly clear that he was never willing to be a devoted partner or dad.
As a result, Molly-Mae has spent the last 20 months confessedly “solo parenting” their daughter while Tommy embarked on numerous escapades to bed random women.
Not-so-basic biology
When she was pregnant, the boxer expressed an embarrassing ignorance to childbirth on At Home With The Furys, his heavyweight champion brother Tyson’s Netflix series.
