Fans have been left concerned for Molly-Mae Hague after she revealed in a recent interview that boyfriend Tommy Fury sometimes “forgets” she’s pregnant.
The 23-year-old influencer and Creative Director of PrettyLittleThing notably announced her pregnancy with the professional boxer back in September 2022 in what is a now-viral social media post seen by millions, all before revealing in a gender reveal video shared shortly after that they are expecting a baby girl.
The young couple famously met on ITV reality dating competition show Love Island back in 2019, and have been together ever since.
But, despite being one of the few couples from their series still in a relationship several years later, Hague as spoken out in a recent interview that is currently doing the rounds online that Fury has been spending a significant chunk of time away training throughout her pregnancy.
Hague added that Fury often has to be “reminded” they are having a baby soon.
In an interview with SportsDirect, when asked if Fury ever talks to her baby bump at all, Molly-Mae explained: “No, I think because he’s been away a lot, I think he sometimes forgets, and I’m like, ‘You do understand that I’m like two months away from having a child’.
“I just think he has to be reminded because he is away a lot.”

After a clip from the interview shared to social media began racking up thousands of views this week, fans of Hague have been taking to Twitter and TikTok to weigh in on the situation, and call Fury out for his absence.
that molly mae interview is pretty sad, that’s a cry for help right there
Sorry but I acc feel so sorry for Molly Mae being pregnant with her smiling through the pain in that interview, bless her. Pregnancy can be a lonely time for a lot of women anyway, let alone if your partner is in a training camp and forgets you’re pregnant.
One fan wrote: “That Molly-Mae interview is pretty sad, that’s a cry for help right there.”
Another fan added: “Not Molly-Mae calling Tommy a deadbeat dad already. He left alone for most of her pregnancy. That’s sad honestly.”

“Sorry but I actually feel so sorry for Molly-Mae being pregnant with her smiling through the pain in that interview, bless her. Pregnancy can be a lonely time for a lot of women anyway, let alone if your partner is in a training camp and forgets you’re pregnant,” another fan said on Twitter.
Taking a more direct hit at Fury, another fan commented: “Tommy is not even a successful boxer by any means, so what’s he doing that he’s forgetting his long term girlfriend is pregnant sorry.
“8 wins in 4 years of a career and they’re all against nobodies.
“‘He’s away a lot’ doing what exactly? Primarily communicating via FaceTime when you’re SO is heavily pregnant is shameful sorry, it’s not like he’s the main breadwinner and they’d be destitute if he took a sabbatical.”

Work isn’t a good excuse for Tommy’s absence during Molly Mae’s pregnancy. He isn’t even earning as much as her so what is this bread people are talking about

Another person gave their opinion on Twitter: “Work isn’t a good excuse for Tommy’s absence during Molly-Mae’s pregnancy. He isn’t even earning as much as her so what is this bread people are talking about.
“Chasing the bag isn’t better than being physically present for your pregnant partner.
“Sorry there’s still no excuse for him, you people will not convince me otherwise. Pregnancy is hard, and feeling lonely through that journey is tough.”
The video then cuts to the pair laughing together and caressing a small baby bump.

‘The average cost of a pint’ in the UK by region, according to the latest data
Danny Jones
Does it feel like pints keep getting more and more expensive almost every week at this point? Yes. Yes, it does, and while you can’t expect a city as big as Manchester to be one of the cheapest places to get one in the UK, we do often wonder how it compares to other parts of the country.
Well, as it happens, someone has recently crunched the numbers for us across the nation, breaking down which regions pay the most and the least for their pints.
The data has been examined by business management consultancy firm, CGA Strategy, using artificial intelligence and information from the latest Retail Price Index figures to find out what the ‘average cost of a pint’ is down south, up North and everywhere in between.
While the latest statistics provided by the group aren’t granular enough to educate us on Greater Manchester’s pint game exactly, we can show you how our particular geographic region is looking on the leaderboard at the moment.
That’s right, we Mancunians and the rest of the North West are technically joint mid-table when it comes to the lowest average cost of a pint, sharing the places from 3rd to 8th – according to CGA, anyway.
Powered by consumer intelligence company, NIQ (NielsenIQ) – who also use AI and the latest technology to deliver their insights – we can accept it might seem like it’s been a while since you’ve paid that little for a pint, especially in the city centre, but these are the stats they have published.
Don’t shoot the messenger, as they say; unless, of course, they’re trying to rob you blind for a bev. Fortunately, we’ve turned bargain hunting at Manchester bars into a sport at this point.
We might not boast the lowest ‘average’ pint cost in the UK, but we still have some bloody good places to keep drinking affordable.
London tops the charts (pretends to be shocked)
While some of you may have scratched your eyes at the supposed average pint prices here in the North West, it won’t surprise any of you to see that London leads the way when it came to the most expensive pint when it came to average cost in the UK.
To be honest, £5.44 doesn’t just sound cheap but virtually unheard of these days.
CGA has it that the average cost of a beer in the British capital is actually down 15p from its price last September, but as we all know, paying upwards of £7 for a pint down that end of the country is pretty much par for the course the closer you get to London.
Yet more reason you can be glad you live around here, eh? And in case you thought you were leaving this article with very little, think again…
Benson Boone has announced a headline gig in Manchester – and it’s a big one
Danny Jones
American pop sensation and unrivalled king of unnecessary front flips, Benson Boone, has just announced his first-ever headline Manchester arena gig as part of a new arena tour.
The solo artist and acrobatic chart-topper has seen a meteoric rise in the US and, as is usually the case across the Atlantic, he’s become increasingly popular over here too.
Benson may have performed here in Manchester before as part of the 2024 MTV EMAs and for a small show at The Deaf Institute, but now big fans have the added Boone of getting to watch a standalone show at one of Europe’s leading indoor entertainment venues.
Announced on Friday, 30 May, the 22-year-old will be making his way across the pond from Washington for a limited run of UK concerts, with a date at Co-op Live arena being one of just five dates.
Extending his ‘American Heart Tour’ ahead of the release of his eponymous sophomore record, with this autumn leg, Co-op Live will mark his individual visit to 0161.
The Grammy-nominated artist has earned several nods of recognition already for his first album, Fireworks & Rollerblades, which was released just last spring.
He has been described as among the current trend of male singers who fit into the American Idol and ‘Voice audition pop’ genre (a term recently coined online), along with the likes of Teddy Swims, Shawn Mendes, Alex Warren and others.
Regardless of the slightly tongue-in-cheek term, he’s become a huge hit around the world and landing him is still a big coup for the venue that has already welcomed similarly massive pop contemporaries like Swims, Sabrina Carpenter, Olivia Rodrigo and more.
In case you’re wondering just how big a deal he is over in the States, even this early in his career, his domestic headline dates sold out in seconds, quite literally…
The last time he visited Co-op Live was to perform at the most recent MTV EMAs
Benson Boone is coming to Manchester on Monday, 27 October and will be playing just two other British venues: The O2 in London (two nights) and the Utilita Arena in Birmingham.
Safe to say you don’t want to miss this one if you like soaring vocals and lots of flipping.
General admission tickets go live at 10am on Thursday, 5 June, but Co-op Members can gain access via the arena’s official pre-sale window from the same time on Tuesday (3 Jun).
