Molly-Mae's parenting meltdowns 'spark concern' from Tommy Fury's family
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. It comes after Katie Price worries fans with appearance in family photo after explaining weight loss.
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."

Strictly Come Dancing line-up could see pop star join after major hint dropped
Strictly Come Dancing line-up could see pop star join after major hint dropped The 38-year-old pop star competed on the hit BBC show in 2024, and he's now hinted that another of his bandmates has signed up for the new serie Alex Jones and JB Gill on The One Show (Image: BBC) JB Gill has hinted that a JLS bandmate has signed up for Strictly Come Dancing. The 38-year-old pop star competed on the hit BBC show in 2024, and he's now hinted that another of his bandmates has signed up for the new series. JB - who reached last year's Strictly final - told The Sun newspaper: "Without spoiling anything for anyone, I actually know a couple of the contestants who are going to be on it." Asked if he was referring to his JLS bandmates or not, JB replied: "Well, I don't think Oritse is doing it, and Marv would do it but he'd probably forget his routine by the time it got round to Saturday." Marvin Humes and Oritse Williams have both been tipped to join the BBC show in recent weeks. And although JB refused to confirm or deny whether they will appear on Strictly, he has offered some advice to this year's contestants. He shared: "I'd encourage people to have fun on the show as ultimately that's what it's all about. It is a competition, yes, but you're learning a new skill and it helps not to take it too seriously. "You're never going to be a professional in the amount of time you've got to learn the style of routine and the dance. I had fun and I never ever imagined getting to the final, especially with all the challenges I had last year." Meanwhile, JB recently ruled out doing I'm A Me Out Of Here!. Article continues below The pop star doesn't think he'd be suited to the ITV show, even though Marvin starred on the programme in 2023. Speaking exclusively to BANG Showbiz at Capital's Summertime Ball, JB said: "I don't think it's for me. "It's the snakes. Now you've heard it here first, if I do that show, the first thing they're [show bosses] going to do is they're going to put snakes and me in a coffin - and no, just no! I'm OK."

Noel Edmonds' Kiwi Adventure 'axed by ITV'
Noel Edmonds' Kiwi Adventure 'axed by ITV' The 76-year-old TV star was hoping that the initial three-parter - which centred on his new life in New Zealand with his wife Liz - would be commissioned for a longer run, but ITV has already decided to axe the show amid modest viewing figures. (Image: ITV) Noel Edmonds' Kiwi Adventure series has been axed. The 76-year-old TV star was hoping that the initial three-parter - which centred on his new life in New Zealand with his wife Liz - would be commissioned for a longer run, but ITV has already decided to axe the show amid modest viewing figures. A TV source told The Sun newspaper: "It's a blow to Noel as he was convinced he was on to a winning idea. "There was a great buzz around the series and it was well received by both viewers and critics alike. "But it needed big numbers to spark a follow-up and attracting 1-1.5 million per episode just wasn't enough." Noel reportedly believes that other factors have influenced ITV's decision. A source close to Noel shared: "River Haven has been hit badly by flooding, it's made working on the estate almost impossible. "That would have meant filming would have been seriously hampered." The insider added: "As far as Noel is concerned, the show has been put on ice." Earlier this year, Noel explained that he owes his life in New Zealand to his appearance on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!. The veteran TV presenter and his wife Liz were inspired to move to the country after he exited the ITV show in 2018. Noel told the Daily Star newspaper's Hot TV column: "I was in Australia on I'm A Celebrity and I got voted out a bit quickly. "As part of the arrangement, ITV organised for us to visit New Zealand. That trip cemented things for us. In 2019, we sold everything in the UK. "We left Heathrow for rented accommodation in the UK, knowing absolutely no one. It was quite bold." Noel also rubbished comparisons between his show and Clarkson's Farm. Article continues below He told The Sun newspaper: "When we were filming our show, some people who knew about Clarkson's Farm said to me, 'Oh, is it like Clarkson's Farm?' "And I said, 'No, it couldn't be more different.' First of all, I'm not like Jeremy in many ways, though I wish I were. "He's brilliant. He can articulate an argument beautifully and deliver a sharp, humorous line like no one else."

Richard Hammond expects the BBC to bring back Top Gear
Richard Hammond expects the BBC to bring back Top Gear "Yes, it ended after Freddie's crash, and my reaction was, 'Oh god, poor Freddie, that sounds awful.' Richard Hammond appears on Clarkson's Farm season 4 (Image: PRIME VIDEO) Richard Hammond is confident that Top Gear will return to screens in the future. The BBC motoring programme has been on hiatus since presenter Andrew 'Freddie' Flintoff suffered nasty injuries in a terrifying crash during filming in 2022 but Hammond – who hosted the show alongside Jeremy Clarkson and James May from 2002 until 2015 – pointed out the corporation has taken it off the schedule in the past. The 55-year-old star – who suffered serious injuries himself in a high-speed accident during filming for the series in 2006 – told the Oxford Mail: "It's been off-air before. It had been off the air for a few years when we took it on, and we did our thing, and then they gave it to another team, and they did their thing. "Yes, it ended after Freddie's crash, and my reaction was, 'Oh god, poor Freddie, that sounds awful.' "To the show being taken off air, the BBC has big-name shows that it rests, and then brings back." Hammond left Top Gear alongside his co-presenters in 2015 after Clarkson's contract was not renewed following an altercation with a producer - with the trio going on to host the Amazon Prime series The Grand Tour - and admits that filming days for the BBC show were "anxiety-ridden". On a visit to the defunct Top Gear set in a video filmed for May's YouTube channel, Hammond said: "You'd think about what was in it [the show]. "If you had a really good film that you were pleased with, or there'd be a tricky bit in the news that you'd be dreading, or a really long complicated link that had a lot of stuff you'd have to remember." May added: "I think we did [get anxious], but I think we got used to it and that was just the way our lives were." Article continues below His former co-star then replied: "Anxiety-ridden. How the hell did we get away with it for so long?" The trio's presenting partnership came to an end as they left The Grand Tour in 2024 and Hammond previously confessed that it hadn't sunk in that the extraordinary period of his career is "over" – more than two decades after he first hosted Top Gear. He said: "I never thought I'd be part of something that big. I'm just a little bloke from Birmingham who likes cars and doing radio and TV but that doesn't mean you end up on one of the biggest shows in the world with an audience who follow you for 22 years. I think six months from now I'll suddenly sit bolt upright and realise it's over."
