It was Generation Insta’s Charles and Di moment; the equivalent to the news in 1992, announced by then prime minister John Major in the House of Commons, that the Prince and Princess of Wales were to separate – but with extra spray tan and more muscles.
The only other difference being that, if you didn’t watch the reality show Love Island and live online, the news and even the names of Molly-Mae and Tommy would have meant absolutely nothing at all. Because, from its earliest days in a Majorcan villa (broadcast on ITV2), to the birth of their daughter, Hague and Fury’s entire relationship has been played out in the public eye.
Hague, in particular, chronicles her life on social media in minute detail and has documented everything from dealing with endometriosis to being burgled. She has told her followers all about her decision to get fillers, and all about her decision to get her fillers dissolved. The couple had supporting roles in At Home With The Furys, Netflix’s fly-on-the-wall series about Tommy’s more famous (and successful) brother, Tyson. Just three weeks ago, Hague publicly described Fury as the “love of my life”.
