MOLLY-MAE Hague has bravely admitted to feeling “heavy” emotionally and told how she sought solace in a “big cry” after a challenging solo parenting moment.
The Love Island alum spoke candidly to her YouTube following as she opened up on how she was processing her first festive period as a mum following her split with ex fiance Tommy Fury, 25.
The pair share daughter Bambi, aged one, and share parenting duties following their shock split in August.
Molly-Mae, 25, told how she was feeling “low and deflated” as she struggled with her mental state ahead of Christmas Day.
Her emotions heightened following a trip to Lapland UK with best mate Tayla-Blue where she told how her tot “hated” every moment.
In a candid segment on her latest December vlog, the Maebe fashion brand owner said her weekend with her pal had been “incredibly hard.”
She continued: “The reality is is that Bambi really didn’t enjoy Lapland UK.
“Personally I absolutely loved it, I thought it was magical, but Bambi is just a really sensitive child and it was a massive sensory overload for her and she was very, very overwhelmed.
“Honestly the whole weekend at Taylor and Jack’s she just cried – she cried for two days straight – and that was very very heavy for me.
“I don’t know why I keep using the word heavy but it’s the only way to describe how I feel, it’s heavy.”
She added: “I don’t really think I have anything else to say on that other than I had a good cry this evening and i let it all out.”
Molly-Mae then told of her “guilt” at her feelings as her family were arriving for the festive season, with the star acting as “host.”
Yet her festive day appeared to go without a hitch, with the influencer uploading a series of Christmas Day snaps to Instagram showing her and Bambi in matching outfits.
Tommy also shared a special glimpse of his time with the toddler for his followers.

The real reason they split emerges and on Thursday, August 15 The Sun reveals how Molly-Mae learned Tommy had cheated on her – leading to an explosive showdown.
On Saturday, August 17, The Sun reveals how Molly-Mae had been sent an upsetting video showing Tommy kissing a girl in a nightclub in North Macedonia on a lads holiday.
Exactly one week after the split a Danish woman accused of getting close to Tommy speaks to The Sun. On Wednesday, August 21, she denies she is the girl who kissed Tommy.
She recently highlighted a positive day with Bambi where the pair headed to the park.
The Filter tan owner also let slip her parenting “hacks” for her easiest days with the little girl.
Yet she has also admitted she “doesn’t know how to act” on days when sports star Tommy has their child.
In a video filmed on a bank holiday Monday, Molly-Mae admitted she felt lost being home alone.
She said: “I have a child-free day today and I don’t really know how to act because me and that baby have literally been joined at the hip.
“We actually had a nice couple of weeks together. I feel so incredibly lose to her at the minute and she’s quite frankly obsessed with me. it’s scary.
“I can’t go to the toilet or leave the room or do anything without her crying her eyes out which is not really ideal.
“I think she’s having attachment issues at the minute. I think she can obviously sense there’s changes and things, which is very interesting considering she’s just a baby. They’re not stupid, they can pick up ion things.”
Talking of the couple’s break-up she added: “This is real life. It is not drama, it is not tea, it is not a publicity stunt – as much as I wish it was.
“This is real life and it’s very sad and it’s very deep and it just doesn’t feel right for me to come on here and talk about it.
“I think it’s important to deal with it privately, also out of respect to Tommy as well because it’s just not nice.”
Molly-Mae has continued to praise Tommy in her vlogs, and even told how he dressed as Santa for a Christmas Eve visit to her home.
