Molly-Mae Hague is having her first Christmas as a single mum to daughter Bambi, after her surprise split from fiancé Tommy Fury earlier this year
An emotional Molly-Mae Hague has told her fans she's "feeling deflated" this Christmas as a single lady.
The Love Island legend split from her fiancé Tommy Fury earlier this year, in a move that nobody expected. Since then, Tommy has been forced to deny cheating rumours, while Molly-Mae had to apologise to fans after an issue with her new business.
Now, as she spends her first Christmas with daughter Bambi without Tommy, the 25-year-old opened up about her personal life and how she was feeling. She said she wasn't in the "Christmas mood", as she'd "struggled" with the festive period.
"I don't really know why – well I do know why actually," she said on her YouTube channel. "But I just have found the last few days quite challenging mentally and I have been quite down to be honest and I haven't felt like picking up my camera.
"And even if I had picked up my camera it would be like fake happiness and fake giddiness about Christmas and I would never come on and act a way that I'm not feeling. Hence why I'm coming on now and telling you that I have been feeling a little bit low."
She went on: "It's so sad when people say that Christmas brings up emotions and for people it can be a really, really sad time of the year and I feel like I've been so blessed in my life.
"I've never really felt that way at Christmas, it's always been a really positive time for me. But I feel like this is the first Christmas ever where I can really understand what people talk about when they talk about when they talk about how it really makes you feel.
"Like when you've got things going on in your personal life it can really bring it all up and make it feel 10 times work."
She explained she'd felt "guilty" that her family was spending Christmas with her as she wasn't feeling up to being a good host.
"I just didn't feel like I could really be present because I have a lot of stuff on my mind and I was just thinking about a lot and feeling quite sad," she said. "Gonna wake up with hopefully a more positive attitude tomorrow, and we go again.
"I'm sorry the start of this vlog has been a complete disaster, because the last few days have been a complete disaster really. Not to put a downer on Christmas, because I think Christmas is amazing and I'm so lucky to have my loved ones around for me, but for obvious reasons, this year is feeling very sad.
"That's no one's fault, it's just a sad situation."
