Tommy Fury has been hit with another brutal blow after being trolled on social media for breaking his silence on his split from Molly-Mae Hague.
The boxer and Love Island series five contestant, 25, told his Instagram following how the past few weeks have been “heartbreaking” amid the “horrendous” allegations against him.
It comes as his ex-fiancé Molly-Mae, also 25 – who he met on the show in 2019 – was flooded with love and support after she made an Instagram comeback earlier this week.

“The false allegations about me have been horrendous, thank you to everybody who has stood by me through this.”
He also added a white heart at the end of his words.

But if Tommy was hoping for tea and sympathy, then he better not check the comments section.
One person told the boxer: “Disappointed in you Tommy, I thought you realised what you had… no sympathy!”
Referencing him doing up his shoe, a second wrote: “The only knot he’s going to tie now.”
“‘Ere mate take a picture of me looking sad and tying my shoes,'” another mocked. “You’re better off without her mate. Said nobody ever,” another comments.
Another penned: “Would Molly really leave the love of her life, her family, her world if nothing was true?”
‘Awful comments’
However, others jumped to his defence, with one hailing the “ballsy move” of leaving his comments on.
Another added: “Why does everyone care? Just leave the lad alone.”
A second commented: “I feel heartbroken for you, keep positive, keep working hard, keep fighting, keep focusing on little Bambi. It’s hard. But keep your head up and stay strong. I stood by you the last few weeks.”
And a third criticised the hate by pleading for people to “calm down with the awful comments”.
A lads trip turned into a nightmare for the boxer
The sportsman was accused of cheating on Molly-Mae during a lads holiday in a nightclub in Ohrid, North Macedonia.
A Dutch jewellery assistant Milla Corfixen, 20, admitted to kissing him.
It was previously rumoured he locked lips with a blonde-haired woman in the INclusive nightclub on a night out.
