Her love story
During her time on “Love Island,” Molly-Mae met her now-ex-fiancé, British pro-boxer Tommy Fury. The couple ended the series as runner-ups, missing out on the $50,000 prize. But they both left with something more valuable: love. After their time in the villa, the two moved into their first apartment together, where they endured the ups and downs of each other’s lives and supported each other’s up-and-coming careers.
As time went on, the pair began to struggle in their relationship, leading to their decision to call off their engagement. This split shocked many people and put Molly-Mae into the public eye even more than she was before.
Documentary
Most recently, Molly-Mae released a documentary on Amazon Prime Video, offering fans and the world behind-the-scenes footage of her life. “Molly-Mae: Behind It All” reveals a side of her she has not shown before — one that is vulnerable, real and complex. The documentary shows how she adapts to the challenges of motherhood with her 2-year-old daughter, Bambi, while balancing a fresh breakup and the release of the maebe brand, her biggest business venture to date.
The first three episodes of the docuseries are now on Amazon Prime Video, with the remaining three launching in the spring of this year.
