Rise and fall of Love Island's golden couple: Molly Mae Hague and Tommy's love story blossomed from reality TV romance By Martin Robinson, Chief Reporter Published: 12:15 BST, 15 August 2024 | Updated: 12:32 BST, 15 August 2024 e-mail View comments They were Love Island's golden couple - the reality TV lovers who first met in a hot tub and fans of the ITV show genuinely believed would be together forever. With millions in the bank, a beautiful baby girl and all the trappings of an A-List lifestyle including a mansion and private jet holidays, Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury had it all. On paper they couldn't have been much different.
Tommy, from a tough background in the travelling community - and Molly-Mae, an ambitious fashionista from a middle class home in the Home Counties. But in their social media bubble over the past five years, they always looked happy to their 13.4million combined followers.
So imagine the shock as yesterday the Gen-Z prince and princess of reality TV announced they had split up, sparking unfounded rumours of infidelity and even a love child. 'Never in a million years did I think I'd write this', Molly-Mae said last night - and most fans of the couple had also thought the same. A glittering big-budget wedding was planned and just last month Tommy shared a beautiful picture of his daughter Bambi and his wife-to-be smiling at a friend's wedding with the caption: 'My everything in a photo'.
Their Insta followers lapped it up - although today comments on.
