Former couple Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury raised eyebrows over the weekend as they reunited for a cosy family day out - but what's really going on?
Once the darlings of the reality TV world, the Love Island favourites shocked fans in August when they announced the end of their engagement - just over a year on from welcoming their first child into the world together. Rumours quickly swirled in the wake of their split, with some accusing boxer Tommy of cheating.
Tommy, who strongly denies being unfaithful, has vowed to win back his former fiancée and return to the family home. Over the weekend, it looked like Tyson Fury's little brother was one step closer to his wish as he reunited with Molly-Mae for a festive family day out in Cheshire.

While the pair arrived in matching, yet separate, £200K Mercedes, both plush vehicles headed back to their former shared £4M mansion, which Tommy moved out of following their split.
But fans hoping a romantic reunion is on the cards for the pair shouldn't get to excited. Leading body language expert Judi James claims the recent snaps of exes Molly-Mae and Tommy was more of a "tense co-parenting event" rather than the start of a reconciliation.
"Although I’ve always claimed a reunion could be on the cards for these two, their look on this outing seems to sadly signal it won’t be any time soon," Judi explains. "This looks like a tense, possibly stressed co-parenting event with no body language signals in these poses of any form of togetherness."
She continues: "Molly-Mae could have been indulging in some female peacocking, dressed for the camera and lingering close to her daughter to smile and play and create affectionate proximity with Tommy for some family poses. She could have carried Tommy’s mug rather than let him carry both drink and child, but instead she’s walked off ahead with a dour expression and her hands tucked into the sleeves of her huge jacket.

Tommy looks smarter, as though he might have been dressed to impress, but that only seems to make the emotional distance between them even greater. The fans would love a romantic Christmas ending for these two but the signals here are that Tommy might still be in ‘graft’ mode."
Molly-Mae and Tommy's brief reunion comes as it's revealed a new Prime Video series fronted by the Instagram influencer will look at the influencer’s life after her split from the father of her daughter. The new six-part show will give "unprecedented access" to Molly-Mae’s life and focus on her “journey after her highly publicised break-up”, as well as raising her daughter and launching the clothing brand Maebe.
Prime Video promises it will be "raw, real and redefining what it means to thrive under intense public scrutiny". Hannah Blyth, head of TV at Prime Video UK, said: "This year has been a transformative one for Molly, and we’re thrilled to offer Prime Video audiences exclusive, intimate access to her daily life and exciting new ventures through this series. Molly is a true powerhouse and her authenticity, resilience and strength will undoubtedly resonate with viewers as she opens up like never before."
Molly-Mae and boxer Tomm, both 25, who were the runners-up on Love Island season five, got engaged in July 2023. The pair featured in 2023 Netflix documentary At Home With The Furys, which centred on Fury’s half brother, boxer Tyson Fury, and his family. The first three episodes of the new show will air on January 17, with the rest following in spring.
