Molly-Mae Hague’s news that she’s expecting her second child with boyfriend Tommy Fury has delighted fans, nine months after the couple rekindled their romance.
But despite being one of the nation’s biggest influencers, the star has opted to take a more pared-back approach when it comes to announcing her baby’s impending arrival.
In a post on Instagram, Molly-Mae announced her pregnancy by sharing sweet home video footage taken on their daughter Bambi’s third birthday last month, where she revealed her bump for the first time.
Known for her carefully curated social media persona, this relaxed feel was a stark contrast to the glitzy video shoot Molly-Mae used to announced her first pregnancy back in 2022.
At the time, Molly-Mae debuted her bump in a professionally-filmed black-and-white video which showed Tommy kissing her tummy.
The video began with Molly-Mae crying while reading those words in her end-of-season Love Island speech to Tommy during their 2019 stint on the ITV show.
After the pair hugged in the throw-back clip, Molly-Mae unveiled a close-up her baby bump in a form-fitting ribbed sleeveless dress as ‘The Night We Met’ by Lord Huron could be heard playing.
Tommy could then be seen crouched down, gently kissing her tummy while Molly-Mae laughs with joy, with her hands placed above and below her baby bump, before the pair shared a loving embrace.
But her second pregnancy reveal featured little more than the happy couple playing with an excited Bambi in their home together, with no big-budget additions or effects.
The sweet clip had the audio of Bambi saying: ‘I’m going to be a big sister’ as she showed off her adorable jumper that had ‘big sister’ knitted onto the front.
Tommy cradled Molly’s bump as they kissed to mark the start of an exciting new chapter. They captioned the post: ‘Soon to be four.’
Molly’s sister-in-law, Paris Fury wrote: ‘Congratulations and you look amazing. Super mum and running her own empire’, while Stacey Solomon commented: ‘How exciting.’
Followers wrote: ‘Ahh congrats!! So happy for you all’ and ‘OMG congratulations!!!!’
‘Guys!!!!! Congratulations this is huge. So excited for you all!!!! Bambi is going to be the best big sister!!!!!!’
Is this cosy home video a refreshing change from the couple’s former high-glam reveals?
Comment now Tommy and Molly went from strength to strength after leaving the Love Island villa and welcomed their first child, Bambi, in January 2023 before getting engaged that July.
However, in the summer of 2024, Molly-Mae announced that she and Tommy had separated after five years together.
In a statement posted to her Instagram followers, Molly confirmed the breakup, saying: ‘I never imagined our story would end, especially not this way.’
Tommy denied continued speculation about him cheating during a magazine interview, insisting any reports about him being with other women were ‘complete and utter b*****ks’.
Later in her Behind It All documentary, Molly-Mae discussed how Tommy’s drinking had been a huge factor in their split.
And while the pair are officially back together, Molly-Mae has insisted that things between the couple are still ‘not perfect’.
The influencer has confirmed to her sister Zoe that she has started wearing her engagement ring again in the latest episodes of her Amazon Prime docuseries.
During the conversation, Zoe pointed out that she noticed Molly-Mae has been wearing her ring again, to which she replied: ‘Yeah, I’ve been wearing it a little bit.’
Zoe then asked whether she plans to keep wearing it, and Molly-Mae responded: ‘Yeah, I feel in a place where I want to wear it again and we are fully back together and that’s a symbol of that.’
Zoe added: ‘And you’re not waiting for anything, are you?’ to which Molly-Mae simply replied: ‘No.’
Elsewhere in the docuseries, Molly-Mae revealed she underwent therapy to recover from the ‘trauma’ of her split from Tommy.
She said: ‘It was deep. The past does affect me. I’m an avoider and I struggle to face things head-on. My biggest trauma would be my break-up last year.’
After she and Tommy reconciled, Molly-Mae also opened up about her fears that history could repeat itself.
She added: ‘Therapy has helped me clear my head and go into this next chapter with a strong mindset. I feel confident in my decision and how amazing this will be for us as a family.’
The influencer, who spent Christmas and New Year on holiday in the idyllic Maldives with Tommy and their daughter Bambi, admitted she still lives in ‘fear’ over their future together months after they rekindled their relationship.
Molly confessed that she never imagined packing up her home and moving back in with Tommy following their August 2024 split.
Last year, Tommy confessed that he didn’t blame Molly-Mae for ending their relationship amid his excessive drinking, as he ‘would’ve walked away from me too’.
