Tommy Fury has admitted he was intoxicated when his fiancée Molly-Mae Hague walked out on him with their daughter Bambi, saying he does not remember the moment. The 26-year-old boxer, known for his appearance on Love Island, discusses his struggles with alcohol dependency in his new BBC Three docu-series, Tommy: The Good, The Bad, The Fury.
In the first episode, Fury explains: “I’ve never even said this before, but when they’d actually left the house, I was actually drunk at that point, so I don’t actually remember it that well.” He adds that despite his drinking, he maintained his fatherly duties, such as making bottles and breakfast for Bambi. Fury also denies allegations of cheating, emphasising that the breakdown of their relationship was due to his alcohol problems.
Fury and Hague, both 26, were runners-up on Love Island in 2019 and announced their engagement in July 2023. In August 2024, they revealed their separation in separate social media posts, with Fury expressing he was “heartbroken.” Hague later spoke about his drinking in her own Prime Video docuseries, Behind It All.
In his new series, Fury aims to prove he is a dependable father and partner once again. He told the PA news agency: “I feel like whatever doesn’t kill you makes you stronger and that year of 2024 was the toughest year by far. It’s a long way behind me now. I’m not that person any more.” His boxing career also took a backseat after hand surgery in January 2024.
Part one of Tommy: The Good, The Bad, The Fury will be available on BBC iPlayer and BBC Three on Tuesday August 19, with part two scheduled for later in the year.
