Influencer and ex- Love Islander Molly-Mae Hague has told of her decision to completely self-fund her new fashion line. Hague, who has a daughter Bambi , one, with British boxer Tommy Fury , explained that launching her womenswear line, Maebe, as “independently as possible was really important to me”, adding: “I wanted to be able to say to Bambi in the future that I did it alone.” She said in an interview with online lifestyle magazine SheerLuxe: “There are no investors – I’ve funded it completely and done 90% of it myself, so it really has been a labour of love.
” Hague, 25, split with her Love Island sweetheart Fury, 25, in August of this year. The couple were engaged when they broke up. “I started working on Maebe before I fell pregnant with Bambi – it had always been a dream,” Hague told SheerLuxe.
“Since I started Maebe I’ve become a mum, so naturally, I’ve grown in so many ways. For one, my wardrobe’s changed a lot and drop one reflects that – it really represents who I am now.” Hague revealed that she wanted her daughter Bambi to learn to work independently and be self-reliant, noting: “I want her to be able to figure things out for herself in the same way I have.
“I have also surrounded myself with like-minded, ambitious working mums – I share my office space with an inspiring jewellery entrepreneur – and I take advice from all my friends who have successful brands and businesses.” When it came to the brand’s aesthetic, Hag.
