- Tommy and Molly-Mae faced significant logistical and disciplinary challenges while co-parenting from separate homes.
- Fury attributes their 2024 split primarily to his struggles with alcohol, not infidelity.
- His father’s intervention was a key catalyst for change.
- The couple has reconciled and now describes their relationship as the “best place ever.”
- They are now fiercely guarding their privacy to protect their family life.
In a revealing new documentary, Tommy Fury opens up about the complexities of co-parenting his daughter Bambi with Molly-Mae Hague following their highly publicized split.
The boxer describes a challenging period where different parenting styles and separate households tested their dynamic, though the couple has since reconciled and is now in a much better place.

Tommy Fury Calls Co-Parenting Logistics “Tricky” in Documentary Scenes
In his BBC Three documentary, Tommy: The Good. The Bad. The Fury., Tommy Fury was filmed during the period of his separation from Molly-Mae Hague, providing a raw look at their co-parenting arrangement. He explained the fundamental difficulty of managing their toddler’s life across two different homes.
“Obviously it’s tricky because Molly’s at her house and I’m here at the minute. When Bambi’s here, it’s all me, and when she’s there, it’s all her, so it is tricky”
This separation meant that their daughter, Bambi, had to transition between two distinct environments and sets of rules, a situation Fury found logistically and emotionally challenging as a father.
Fury Admits Being “Wrapped Around Bambi’s Little Finger”
A key theme in Fury’s revelation is the stark contrast between his and Molly-Mae’s parenting disciplines. The boxer openly confessed that he is the more indulgent parent, a soft touch compared to Hague’s more structured approach.
“I’m wrapped around her little finger ten times so I’ll literally do anything for her. But at least with Molly she knows she can’t get away with it… but with me, she definitely can. She can get away with murder”

This admission highlights a common co-parenting dynamic where differing styles can create inconsistency for a child, though Fury’s comments were made with affection and self-awareness.
Molly-Mae’s Own Parenting Struggles with a Toddler Testing Boundaries
Tommy’s disclosures about co-parenting came alongside Molly-Mae’s own candid discussions about motherhood. In a recent YouTube vlog, she emotionally shared the difficulties of parenting a toddler, making Fury’s comments about their differing styles even more contextual.
“I’m having one of those days, toddler mum days, where I question, ‘am I actually cut out for this?’… I’m finding [Bambi] impossible, absolutely impossible. Every single thing I try and ask her to do, she will not listen to me”
Her experience sheds light on the universal challenges parents face, emphasizing that despite their fame, they navigate the same testing phases of toddlerhood as anyone else.
The Real Reason Behind the Split: Alcohol, Not Infidelity
The need for their temporary co-parenting arrangement stemmed from their 2024 breakup, which Fury’s documentary attributes squarely to his struggles with alcohol, vehemently denying rampant cheating rumors.
“The reason for our end in the relationship was alcohol… I had my problems with alcohol, I was absent from the ring, I had problems in my private life and just lost touch with myself”
He described a downward spiral that began after a hand surgery left him unable to train or fight, leading to excessive drinking that negatively impacted his role as a partner and father.
