Molly-Mae's heartbreaking interview
In 2022, Molly-Mae and Tommy were still seen as Love Island's most successful power couple.
As Tommy geared up for his highly-anticipated fight against YouTuber Jake Paul, however, Molly was seven months pregnant with their daughter, Bambi, and admitted she was left alone a lot while her partner was at training camp.

"He's been away so much sometimes I feel he forgets [I'm pregnant] I'm like 'do you understand I'm two months away, we're going to have a child?'" the star told Kugan Cassius.
Keeping positive, Molly added: "It's been a stressful couple of months because Tommy’s been in camp and I’ve literally been by myself for two months but now I should have him back for a bit, providing he doesn’t have anything else coming up soon. I don’t know. You never know."
Despite Molly-Mae's candid confession, the pair seemed stronger than ever at the time, but fans were left concerned for the mother-to-be amid Tommy's absence during her pregnancy.
The couple clashed over their daughter's schooling
However, the new parents appeared to clash very early on about their daughter's future as they shared their disagreements about Bambi's schooling.
The former Love Island stars appeared in the Netflix documentary series, At Home with the Furys in August 2023, airing their differing thoughts on Bambi's future.
Tommy, who comes from a Traveller community background – where children traditionally leave school shortly after primary school – said his daughter was to be raised "The old fashioned way. The right way," which would involve her not pursuing an education.
In a confessional tape featured in the documentary, Molly-Mae seemed clear cut on her wishes for their daughter.
Molly-Mae admitted she has a different view to her partner on Bambi's schooling
"With Tommy obviously being a Traveller, he has had conversations with me about our child not going to school, which is absolutely non-optional.
"I've been raised completely differently to that. It would never be a question that our children or child would not go to school. But hopefully it won’t cause too many rifts."

In December, the YouTube star fought back tears in a vlog, in which she explained: "Guys, I don't really know what to come on here and tell you right now. I know how bad I look. Trust me, however bad I look, I feel 20 times worse.
"I have been going through it in more ways than one," she said, showing her hands without her engagement ring.
"I am hoping, in say about a week, I might be in a place mentally, physically and emotionally where I can start filming some proper content for you guys again and get back on my channel.
''So please bear with me, I am really desperate to come back to you guys. I love you guys and I will speak to you very soon."

"I just feel like, at the minute I've been struggling a little bit."
