Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury announce safe arrival of their first child
Former Love Island stars Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury have announced the birth of their first child together today.
The 23-year-old reality TV stars met on the fifth season of the hit reality show, and announced they were expecting a baby last September.
Molly-Mae, an influencer, creative director and reality TV star, has now revealed that their baby has safely arrived on her Instagram today, The Manc reports.
Since announcing her pregnancy, she has since vlogged her experience on her YouTube channel, to 1.73m subscribers.
Molly-Mae and Tommy shared their happy news with a joint post, showing a black and white photo of the trio in hospital, captioned with the date of their baby’s birth – 23/01/23.
She then added further updates and adorable photos in her Instagram stories, writing: “One week old today. I can’t believe we get to keep you forever.
“Becoming your mum has been the best thing to ever happen to me… it doesn’t seem possible but my love for you grows with each passing moment.
“There is no feeling like holding you in my arms little one, my heart literally explodes.
“Thank you for entering the world safely for us and blessing us with the gift of being your parents.
“We promise to love and care for you unconditionally forever.”
Fans had been speculating that the star had given birth after her social media fell silent more than a week ago.
And then Jake Paul, Tommy’s boxing rival, appeared to leak the news on his own twitter last week.
Molly-Mae has a huge following of 6.8 million on Instagram alone, and is also the creative director of Manchester-based retailer Pretty Little Thing.
Her long-term boyfriend Tommy Fury is a professional boxer and the younger brother of two-time world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury.
The Love Island lovebirds have now been flooded with comments and well-wishes from fans and fellow celebrities.
