Molly-Mae Hague opened up about her split from Tommy Fury in her first interview and photoshoot with British Vogue.
The Love Island star, 25, shocked fans when she announced her split from the boxer, 25, in September, stating: ‘I never imagined our story would end, especially not this way.’
Following weeks of infidelity rumours, Tommy denied he had been unfaithful in a tell-all chat with The Mail.
Yet Molly-Mae mused that it was a ‘really deep situation’, telling Vogue that ‘no one will ever really know what went down apart from Tommy and I, and that’s how we’d like to keep it, for Bambi’s sake.’
Hinting that there was more to be said by her ex, she continued: ‘I do think that he will talk about things eventually. I do think that when he’s ready, like, maybe more will be said. But I think that’s for him to do on his terms.’
She did joke that there was one advantage to their break-up, however, ‘more wardrobe space’.

Despite now being in a place where she can joke, Molly-Mae confirmed that the split had come as a ‘shock’ to her and that she had been counting down the days to their wedding date next September.
Claiming that her wanting to marry Tommy ‘would never have changed’, she went on: ‘It’s very hard when it’s kind of taken away. But I will always have a lot of love and respect for him.’
Yet despite wanting the wedding to go ahead, she confessed that she had doubts during the planning process, thinking about her wedding ‘should’ look rather than how she wanted it to be.
She explained: ‘Would I be more confident now, after everything that’s happened and learning even more about myself, to say, actually, that doesn’t even make me happy, screw the big Instagram moment, I’m going to do it this way? Definitely.’
Molly-Mae has slowly brought herself back into the public eye in recent weeks, returning to vlogging after temporarily shutting herself away in the wake of her split.
She was consoled during the breakup by her close friends, who whisked her away to Soho Farmhouse to blow off some steam.
While there she revealed she attempted to drink a glass of rosé but couldn’t bring herself to finish it because she hates being intoxicated.
Molly-Mae also kept busy caring for daughter Bambi, 22 months, and launching her new clothing brand, maebe.

Tommy was pressed about their split this week during an interview on ITV’s Loose Women.
Panellist Ruth Langsford asked: ‘You’ve said you don’t want to go into detail about it, but how are the two of you doing? And you’re obviously co-parenting Bambi and it’s a tricky time.’
She emphasised: ‘As I know going through these things in public, you know, everyone’s got something to say, without knowing the truth.’
The boxer, who looked rather unimpressed with Ruth for bringing up Molly-Mae, then claimed that he doesn’t listen to anything in the press or on social media as ‘that’s one story’.

He said: ‘Yeah they really do, and that’s been the overall thing the past few months you know I don’t listen to anything in the press and social media because its all, that’s one story, very apart from the real story, and like I said moving forward,’
‘Everyone is entitled to a private life and me and Molly we got together when we was very young,’
‘And we just think going forward everything should be private now because everyone is entitled to that and that’s what I want. Not only for me but for Bambi as well, for her sake.’
Molly and Tommy shook the internet when they announced their break up in August.
The pair had been together since meeting on the ITV show five years ago.
Molly-Mae’s bombshell statement which started with ‘never in a million years did I think I’d ever have to write this’ was posted to Instagram.
She continued: ‘After five years of being together I never imagined our story would end, especially not this way.
‘I am extremely upset to announce that mine and Tommy’s relationship has come to an end.
‘I will forever be grateful for the most important thing to me now and always, my beautiful daughter. Without us there would be no her, she will always be my priority.
‘I want to thank you all for the love you have shown us over the last five years. You have all been a part of our journey and I feel it’s right to share this with you all.
At the time Molly-Mae took a step back from social media and work commitments as she attempts to come to terms with life without Tommy.
She added: ‘Whilst I attempt to navigate the coming days and weeks please kindly respect my privacy over this difficult time, I’ll be back when it feels right. Molly-Mae x’
Just under an hour later, Tommy broke his silence on the split, penning on his Instagram Stories: ‘I am heartbroken to share that Molly and I have decided to end our relationship.
‘The past 5 years have led to us having our beautiful baby girl, Bambi and I will be forever thankful to Molly for making me a dad. Bambi is our priority.
‘Please respect our privacy, and our families privacy, as we navigate our way through this difficult time.’
The couple met on series five of Love Island in 2019, finishing in second place.
They became official just weeks after their first villa date and moved in together in Manchester a month after landing back in the UK.
In October 2023, Tommy’s behaviour raised eyebrows among fans after he was spotted partying with girls and unlikely pal Chris Brown in Abu Dhabi.
The boxer sparked concern between his and Molly-Mae’s fans after he was spotted in a clip being targeted by an attractive brunette – who playfully grabbed his face as he dances directly behind her.
Amid Tommy’s week of partying, eyes were drawn to Molly-Mae and her missing a crucial accessory.
While Tommy enjoyed a solo holiday, Molly-Mae remained in Manchester with their young daughter, where she was first seen without her engagement ring.
In December, Molly-Mae sparked concern when she teared up and admitted she’s ‘been going through it’ as she is seen without her engagement ring again.

She explained: ‘Guys, I don’t really know what to come on here and tell you right now. I know how bad I look. Trust me, however bad I look, I feel 20 times worse.
‘I have been going through it in more ways than one.
‘I am hoping, in say about a week, I might be in a place mentally, physically emotionally where I can start filming some proper content for you guys again and get back on my channel.
‘So please bear with me, I am really desperate to come back to you guys. I love you guys and I will speak to you very soon.’
