The festive season is always an exciting time – from decorating the tree and creating family traditions, to spending time with loved ones. But for former Love Island star Molly-Mae Hague, this Christmas could be a particularly emotional one.
It’s her first Christmas as a single mum, having split from fellow Love Islander Tommy Fury in August, and Molly-Mae wants to make it special for their daughter Bambi, who turns two in January.
A source exclusively told us, “Molly-Mae and Tommy love all the holidays, but especially Christmas. Even before Bambi came along it was a big thing for them, but obviously, with Bambi, it’s now an even bigger deal.
“This year will be very different but Bambi will still be at the centre of everything. They’re going to spend time together, the three of them, but it’s unlikely they’ll be waking up in the same house or anything, they’re very much separated.”

In January 2023, the couple welcomed Bambi and, in the same year, Molly-Mae and Tommy got engaged after a romantic cliff top proposal in Ibiza. However, in a shocking turn of events, the 25-year-old announced in August that she and Tommy had parted ways, just eight months after celebrating Bambi’s first Christmas.
Last year, the couple enjoyed a relaxing, family-filled day with the three of them wearing matching pyjamas. But 2024 could be a little bit different for the influencer and businesswoman, and she is determined to make the most of it. During a Q&A on Instagram, Molly-Mae told fans that she can’t wait for Christmas as she will be hosting. She said, “I’m so excited! I can’t wait to have everyone here and make it super special.” However, she did not confirm if she will invite Tommy, also 25.
But Molly-Mae has made it no secret that she’s been finding solo parenting difficult. She recently opened up about feeling “out of her depth” on holiday in Dubai. The star confessed to feeling anxious during the trip as she missed the “emotional and physical support” from Tommy.
Talking about the getaway, Molly explained, “To be honest with you, it utterly knocked my confidence as a mum. Because I felt like, over the last few months, I’ve been getting into a really really good place with motherhood, feeling so confident and feeling really on top of my game, feeling like I’ve got Bambi sussed. I know her, I can do it, I don’t need support. I have got this under control. Anyway, Dubai; different story, so out of my depth. I felt like a single parent and massively noticed the missing piece of the puzzle – that of your partner. We came home early.

She added, “It’s knocked my confidence so much with taking Bambi abroad ever again. It kind of made me feel quite emotional, just to feel like I actually, really, in motherhood, needed definitely emotional and physical support.”
But one thing’s clear, despite it likely being a difficult time for her to navigate on her own, Molly-Mae and Tommy will do their best to c...
