Molly-Mae Hague has thanked fans for their support in her first Instagram post since announcing her split from Tommy Fury.
The Love Island stars, both 25, shocked fans when they confirmed their separation on August 14, after five years of dating.
The ex-couple met on the ITV programme in 2019, and share one-year-old daughter Bambi together.
Since the split, various rumours have emerged, including claims Tommy is no longer living at home and that he allegedly cheated on her ‘multiple times’ – which he denied.
Molly-Mae, though she’s returned to social media, hadn’t as of yet posted on social media or spoken out since announcing the split.
She’s now however shared an image on Instagram, writing: ‘Thank you for being the best online friends I could’ve ever wished for.’
The Pretty Little Thing ambassador posed in front of a picturesque scene, leaning on a wooden railing, overlooking a body of water.
She opted for comfy clothes, wearing a matching light grey set, with minimal makeup and her hair pulled back into a bun.
Fans rushed to the comments to share their love for the YouTube influencer, with many sharing how much they loved her and writing: ‘We’re here for you.’
Since the news of their split, Molly-Mae has been keeping a low profile, and only appeared to share one comment on social media, showing support for her sister Zoe.
Neither boxer Tommy nor his former fiancée have shared the reasoning behind their split, but he was hit with cheating allegations shortly after it was announced, which he has vehemently denied.
‘Tommy is horrified by the false allegations of cheating being circulated by the media and he’s consulting his lawyers,’ his rep previously told Metro.co.uk.
As rumours surrounding their split began to emerge, sources claimed it was a ‘long time coming’ after Molly-Mae reportedly grew tired of Tommy’s ‘gallivanting around the world while she was looking after their child’.
It was also reported that Tommy is allegedly ‘fighting to get his former fiancée back’ but some headlines claimed Molly-Mae ‘didn’t take the decision lightly’ to end her relationship.
Molly-Mae announced their separation two weeks ago, saying: ‘Never in a million years did I think I’d ever have to write this.
‘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.
‘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.’
Tommy also wrote on his Instagram story: ‘I am heartbroken to share that Molly and I have decided to end our relationship.

‘The past five 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, who became engaged in July 2023, welcomed their daughter Bambi in January 2021, and recently celebrated five years together.
In recent months, the former power couple had been dogged by rumours of a split, despite public declarations of their love.
