Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury have confirmed their newborn is a boy, after fans spotted a blue blanket clue in one of her YouTube videos. The couple, both 27, announced the news in an Instagram clip showing them with their three-year-old daughter Bambi, captioning it: “There’s your little brother.” In the video, they ask Bambi: “Do you want to hold him?”
Fans had begun speculating the gender after one viewer wrote: “Why is no one talking about the blue baby blanket in the background of Molly's two new vlogs?” Another added: “Defo a boy!! I'm the only one that has noticed this!”

The couple announced the arrival of their second child last week with a black-and-white family photograph and the caption: “And then there were 4.” The posts attracted millions of likes and thousands of comments from fans and celebrity friends.
But the birth comes at a busy time for Tommy, who is preparing for a boxing bout against Eddie Hall. According to a source quoted by the Daily Mirror, Tommy briefly left the family home to train. “He flew back up to Manchester yesterday,” the insider said. “He’s absolutely devastated, but his fight is less than two weeks away, so he knows he has to do it. He needs to focus on his training.”
Molly-Mae, who met Tommy on the 2019 series of Love Island, has built one of the UK’s most successful social media brands since leaving the show. The couple’s relationship ups and downs were documented in her recent Prime Video series, Behind It All.
Reflecting on becoming a mother, Molly-Mae said: “I felt like I'd lived so much life by 23, I felt really ready for a new chapter. Tommy and I were in an incredible place and to have something that was half him, half me, just felt really special. I've never had any regrets about starting a family young.” She added: “But if I could go back and maybe go again, would I have waited a few more years? Potentially. I would love more days to just sit and do absolutely nothing. They were great for my mental health.”
