Molly-Mae Hague was branded ‘out of touch’ for complaining about having no fun during the summer, with her in-laws said to be concerned about her parenting struggles
Molly-Mae Hague’s public meltdowns over her struggles with parenting are “concerning” her partner Tommy Fury’s family, a source has claimed. The Love Island winners share two-year-old daughter Bambi, but her tantrums have tipped Molly-Mae, 26, over the edge.
The Maebe business owner previously described herself as “selfish”, admitting that as much as she wants Bambi to have a sibling, she worries she is “not cut out” for parenting. The influencer filmed herself having an emotional moment in her car last week after her daughter tested her patience.
Luckily, Molly-Mae’s older sister Zoe Rae was on-hand to give the social media star some space to compose herself, after her tot had a tantrum at a local petting zoo. Molly-Mae sobbed in the car as she took a few minutes to herself, sharing her candid glimpse into the realities of toddler-mum life.

Molly-Mae was on the receiving end of criticism recently, after her claims that she’d not done anything fun all summer were met with backlash. The star has shared her trips to Dubai, Disneyland and Wimbledon, leading some followers to slam her as “out of touch.”
But her public displays of despair have reportedly caused tension with her partner Tommy’s family, after the couple rekindled their relationship on New Year’s Eve following a brief split. A source claimed his family are growing more and more concerned with her videos. Speaking to The Sun, an insider said: “Within the Travelling community, having a big family with lots of children is the norm.
“Tommy’s relatives have been hopeful that he and Molly will have more children after getting back on track. They care about her so much and are concerned, but also worried about how publicly she’s venting about motherhood.”
The source claimed that the family have compared her sister-in-law Paris’ resilient attitude to family life with Molly-Mae’s. They added that the family finds Molly-Mae’s open struggles with being a mum “surprising”, as they have been offering support to the mother-of-one. The Mirror has contacted Molly-Mae and Tommy’s reps for comment.
Addressing the criticism she has received about her video, Molly was adamant that she would not stop showing the realities of motherhood. She was labelled as ‘out of touch’ and ‘selfish’ by fans for her previous vlog, while others slammed her parenting style with Bambi as ‘too soft’.
Speaking to her YouTube subscribers, Molly said through tears: “I’m trying so so hard to stay positive but, I feel like I need to keep my camera running all day so you can see like every single thing. Bambi is a huge problem, she screams and I can’t even get like socks and shoes on.
“I don’t care who tells me I am out of touch with reality or all this stuff thats going on on TikTok at the minute, I don’t care I’m not going to not talk about it. I feel like I don’t want to talk about anything controversial anymore because in the last video I said some things I probably could have worded better and even with all the motherhood things I am talking about at the minute, it’s just a lot.”
Molly-Mae said she found parenting a toddler to be “literally impossible” and asked fans whether she should be “finding it as hard as I do sometimes”. She added: “I want to give Bambi a sibling, but the idea of this times by two, I don’t know if I could ever do it. I don’t know if I’m cut out for it.”
