Tommy Fury has admitted he and Molly-Mae Hague are the ‘happiest they’ve ever been’ after rekindling their romance.
The boxer and the influencer, both 26, who share daughter Bambi, two, shocked fans when they announced their split last August, a year after getting engaged.
The couple later reconciled and have enjoyed numerous sun-soaked getaways and appear more loved-up than ever, with Tommy set to share insight into the months they spent apart in his upcoming docuseries, Tommy: The Good. The Bad. The Fury.
Speaking ahead of the series premiere Tommy reflected on the split, which he said was caused after hand surgery prevented him from getting back in the ring as things went from ‘bad to worse’ and he ended up getting ‘black-out drunk’ most nights.
‘The injury caused a lot of problems in my life, both inside and outside the ring. But I’ve come so far and I’ve done a full turn. I’ve gone from having nothing in my life: to living in a house alone, going through the toughest time of my life,’
Tommy continued: ‘To now having everything back and feeling myself again. I’m back in the gym and back training. I’m back in shape. My family’s there and I’ve come full circle. I couldn’t be any happier’.

He went on to reveal that the couple have made a big change in their relationship and vowed to keep more of their time together private and away from cameras.
‘So, in terms of my family life, everything is private now between me and Molly, and we’re in the happiest place possible, And that’s all that anyone needs to know!’.
He continued: ‘Everyone’s entitled to a private life and so right now we’re going to live our private life, because we haven’t had that since we were 19 or 20 years old. It’s all been lived out in front of a camera or on the front page of a newspaper. So now, going forward, we’re finally going to take that private time’.
Released on Tuesday August 18, the BBC Three series will document Tommy’s battle with alcohol, as he reveals how it caused him to neglect his responsibilities as a father and partner and ultimately causing his relationship to fall apart.
In the debut episode, he can be seen opening up about his alcohol issues and how it affected his relationship with Molly, admitting that he doesn’t blame her for leaving him as he would’ve done the same.
While his dad and boxing trainer, John, reveals that he urged Molly-Mae to leave Tommy, feeling it needed to happen in order to force him to sober up.
In quotes obtained by The Mirror, Tommy told John: ‘I mean, I probably would’ve walked away from me too.
‘It was a tough moment in my life, but everything happens for a reason. I’m not happy that I went through that, but I’m grateful for the lessons that I’ve learned, and I don’t think I would’ve known half of what I know about myself if I never went through that.’
To now having everything back and feeling myself again. I’m back in the gym and back training. I’m back in shape. My family’s there and I’ve come full circle. I couldn’t be any happier’

The first episode shows the fallout from the couple’s split, with Tommy seen living alone after Molly took Bambi and left.
Reflecting on the tumultuous period, the boxer explained how hitting ‘rock bottom’ was what caused him to realise he needed to turn his life around.
He said: ‘I woke up one morning and everything was gone. Molly and the baby had gone. That was the moment I thought, “Wow, what’s going on?”. And that was the moment where I just started to try and change things around.’
In an interview with The Mirror earlier this month, Tommy described how he spent a lot of time alone ‘sitting in a big dark room’ after the break-up.
He said: ‘That’s what I was doing most days. When you’re in a big house all by yourself, you think about a lot of things, and you wish you could never go down that road, but it’s happened.’
The docuseries will see the father-of-one recalling how his booze issues began, detailing: ‘I had enough drink to last me a lifetime in 2024.
‘Suddenly, one day, you find that all you can do is sit down and then a few of them [drinks], it takes the pain away. You forget where you are, you forget what’s going on. And sometimes you want that feeling all the time, and that’s where obviously it starts.’

Tommy went on: ‘Now, when I look at that person from back then, I don’t even recognise that guy. It’s just not me. Back then, I didn’t really care about anything. It was like the world going by, wasn’t bothered, and that’s just not me.’
While he says he’s not completely sworn off alcohol forever, the brother of heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, insists he now barely drinks and will save booze for special occasions.
He explained: ‘Going forward, if it’s a wedding or something like that, I might have a couple of drinks. Four or five times a week is something nobody should be doing.’
Tommy and Molly-Mae met on the fifth series of Love Island back in 2019, going on to welcome Bambi into the world in January 2023 and then getting engaged later that year.
However they shocked fans when they announced that they had gone their separate ways in August 2024.
The internet was abuzz with speculation and theories over what had happened to cause their split, but it was not until January that Tommy revealed it was due to his dependency on alcohol.
In May, he admitted ‘2024 was the worst year of my life’ and described how he spent ‘a long time on a dark path’ in an unflinching Good Morning Britain interview.

He explained: ‘Ever since I’ve been small from 5,6,7,8, all I’ve ever done is boxed, I’ve never had another job outside of boxing. I’ve always thought, breathed and done everything boxing.
‘When you do that for such a long time and then all of a sudden you’re sat in a hospital bed and you’re thinking to the future of a year down the line.
‘You’re thinking to yourself, “I’ve never done anything else other than box, what am I going to do to pass the time? How am I going to get through this?” You fall into a dark place.
‘Being in a position where boxing is everything, the fact I couldn’t do that and get out of bed in the morning and do what I wanted to do to make me happy, I just thought s*** it all.
‘You go down that dark route and you go down there for a few weeks and you end up staying there for a very long time and that has consequences.’
Tommy admitted: ‘2024 was the worst year of my life and this year’s going to be the best year of my life, it starts on Friday, I’ve turned it all around.
‘I’m happy mentally now, I’ve got to go through these challenges in life. Everyone’s got a hard life.
‘I’ve come through this, I’m on the other side and I’m back doing what I do best.’
