Love Island's Molly-Mae Hague caused shockwaves when she abruptly ended her engagement to Tommy Fury back in August – but now insiders tell Closer that Molly-Mae is not only back with him but they’ve already set a date for a secret wedding!
The pair got engaged in Ibiza after meeting on Love Island series five and had baby Bambi in 2023 before their dramatic split – which he later claimed was down to his boozing. Now, Molly-Mae and Tommy, both 25, reportedly want to jet off on a romantic holiday to rekindle their romance and close pals believe they may even have plans to elope.
An insider tells Closer, ‘Molly wants to secretly escape to Ibiza with Tommy again, back to where they got engaged. Close friends think they’re going to secretly tie the knot out there.’
The pair, who currently co-parent two-year-old Bambi, sent tongues wagging when they were seen kissing at a New Year’s Eve party. This led some fans to believe that the entire split was faked as a publicity stunt for Molly-Mae’s docuseries, Molly-Mae: Behind It All, but she has since hit back against these claims, saying, ‘I wish it was one, it would be a lot easier.’
The couple then fuelled speculation around a reunion when they were spotted going to the cinema together just days later, followed by Tommy allegedly spending the night at the house he used to share with the influencer. Now, he’s said to be moving his things back into their old home as they prepare to give things another go.
A source tells Closer, ‘She’s moving Tommy back in because she sees them being apart as doing more damage than good and the only way anything is going to be repaired is by doing it together. They are still in love, they still want to get married, and they still plan to have more children.’
For a while, it was unclear what caused the split between the two, with rumours flying that Tommy had been unfaithful— which he still vehemently denies. Just as Molly-Mae’s TV show debuted, Tommy gave an interview where he revealed that their break-up was mainly due to his alcohol issues. He said, ‘We broke up because I had a problem with alcohol, and I couldn’t be the partner that I wanted to be anymore. It kills me to say it, but I couldn’t.’
Molly-Mae has made no secret of the fact that she’d love to take Tommy back despite all the pain the split has caused her. In her docuseries, she said, ‘All I want in this life is to be with him, to have another baby with him, and to grow old as a family. To live in a nice house and have a nice life together – that’s all I want.’
She added, ‘My whole coping mechanism this past few months has been thinking that we will hopefully get back to a better place. Right now, in this moment, I don’t know what the future holds for Tommy and I, but I’d be lying if I said my love disappeared over night… the hope is that me and Tommy will end up back together.’
Now, the mum-of-one is ready to get their relationship back on track. The source tells Closer, ‘Molly has grown in this period, she has her eyes wide open and wants to follow her gut. She’s told pals that rattling around alone in the house is giving her too much time to overthink and replay everything. The longer they are living apart the more they risk losing everything which is giving her terrible anxiety.
‘Molly-Mae knows they have a lot of talking to do, and it makes sense to do it while living under the same roof. She’s also tired of living in limbo and she’s aware that they need to put in the work if they’re going to make it.’
Our insider adds, ‘Molly is still angry, but she wants to stop treading water. She’s told pals that she’s sick of going around in circles and knows that Tommy is best with her, together at home under the same roof, where they can work on his demons together.
‘She doesn’t want to keep her life on hold, she wants Tommy home with his daughter and for them to finally start working towards a future.’
