But Molly-Mae, 25, abruptly ended their five-year relationship after being sent an upsetting video of her fiancé on a lads’ holiday.

Pro boxer Tommy, 25, is accused of kissing a blonde in a nightclub during a 2am vodka binge just days before Molly-Mae announced their split.

And a devastated Molly-Mae is “bracing herself” for more women to come forward with claims he cheated on her.

Both Molly-Mae and Tommy will be supported by their friends and family as they try and get through the tough breakup and relationship expert Jo Hemmings says everyone “will have to take sides”.

She adds: “There’s no being able to soothe or reassure both parties in this kind of awful situation.”

We take a look at who will be in each of their corners as they heal…

Tyson Fury

Tommy’s brother Tyson Fury will most likely be supporting his younger brother throughout his breakup.

However, it will be a tricky one as his wife Paris is said to be furious with Tommy for doing the dirty on Molly-Mae.

A source told the Daily Mail: “Paris has sent a message just saying she’s there for her.

But it will be causing rows with his wife Paris Fury who has reached out to MollyCredit: Instagram
“She and Tyson adored Molly and Tommy and are gutted it’s not worked out.”

And Jo is sure that Paris and Tyson will be getting into arguments about their opinions on the situation.

She says:  “The problem there, of course, is the ripple effect from a couple breaking up. It ends up being divisive within a family.

“So you’ve got Paris saying, ‘Look, she’s the best thing ever happened to him. This is crazy,’ and she will be probably getting into arguments with her own husband about it.”

Shane Fury

Once referred to as the “the normal one of the family,” Tommy’s brother Shane may also be supporting his young relative through this difficult time.

Shane is not a professional boxer and is much less in the public eye than his famous relatives.

However, he is incredibly supportive of his siblings’ careers.

Speaking to iFL TV after Tyson’s fight with Deontay Wilder in 2020, Shane said: “In my opinion, he [Fury] is the best heavyweight ever made.

“The size, stature of him, he shouldn’t be able to do what he can do but he’s a proper fighting man.”

Although he’s not afraid to tell Tommy how it is either, as he admitted he was “surprised” he won against KSI in a fight last year, and said his brother looked “vulnerable”.

John and Chantal Fury

Of course, Tommy’s parents John and Chantal Fury will take their son’s side and be supportive throughout the breakup.

Jo explains: “When it’s your family…If it was one of my boys who’d behaved like this, at the end of day, they’re my sons, and you unconditionally love your kids.

“You might say to them that they’ve been stupid and you might suggest ways in which they could repair or begin to repair something, but you still love them, and you’ll often find excuses for their behaviour because they are your children, or they are your brother, or whatever it may be, because family’s tight and his seems particularly to be.”

However, while Tommy has the support of all of his family, Jo is concerned he “doesn’t seem to have many friends around him”.

She adds: “This is the one time he really needs that.

“He needs the kind of friends who say to him, ‘Look, you’ve been an idiot. You are going to have to just go back, beg for forgiveness, suggest counselling, do everything you can in your power to win Molly-Mae back.’

“But I don’t think his friends are like that. I think his friends will take him out, fill him with booze, get him to party.

“In the short term, that will numb it all for him. But in the long term, that’s a disaster, because there’s no coming back from reacting like that.”

Anouska Santos

WAG Anouska Santos, 32, has been “like a rock for Molly” since she and Tommy split.

A friend told The Sun how England star Luke Shaw’s girlfriend was even by her side when she posted her statement announcing the news.

They said: “Molly wanted a steady hand by her side and Anouska has been a great support to her.

“She has told Molly that she will always be there to help and has offered to help out with Bambi at the drop of a hat.

“Molly is going through hell and friends like Anouska are exactly what she needs.”

Molly-Mae’s manager Francesca Britton has been by her side, through thick and thin, since she left Love Island with Tommy in 2019.

Fran has helped Molly-Mae become the multi-millionaire she is, launching businesses and becoming the creative director of PrettyLittleThing, and Molly often refers to her as “the real boss”.

But it’s not just a work relationship, as Molly-Mae was a bridesmaid at Fran’s wedding in Barbados in 2023.

Fran and Molly-Mae’s mum were seen taking her out for a pub lunch in Cheshire in an attempt to cheer up the reality star, not long after she broke the news of their split.

Zoe Rae

Molly-Mae’s sister Zoe Rae, 27, has been a continued source of support while Tommy was away on boxing trips.

Left to parent Bambi alone when she was a newborn, Molly-Mae revealed she’d been struggling in her first few months of motherhood and said that it was Zoe who’d been visiting, and dropping her plans at the drop of a hat.

“Zoe just came round because I told her I can’t do this,” she explained in a video a year ago.

While Zoe is currently on honeymoon in Dolomiti and Rhodes with her new husband Danny Rae, so not able to be there for her sister in person, there’s no doubt she’ll be in constant contact with her.

She’s even stopped posting honeymoon pictures since the news broke, in a sign of solidarity.

Molly is understood to be close to her parents – especially her father – who is supporting her through the split.

The influencer’s dad Stephen furiously unfollowed Tommy following the cheating allegations and rushed to the aid of his youngest daughter.

He hurried to the star’s Cheshire mansion with a bouquet of flowers this week, while her mum was seen taking her out for a pub lunch.

Molly previously credited her father for “having the answer to all of my problems”.

Tayla Blue

Molly’s pal Tayla Blue has been spotted outside her mansion, coming to support her friend in crisis.

Molly has grown close to the owner of fragrance brand Memree in recent years, and described her as a “soulmate of a friend”.

She even surprised her with a private jet on a ski trip in Courchevel earlier this year.

In a Youtube video, Molly said: “It’s crazy because me and Tayla have only been friends for two years now, which is insane because honestly, I feel like a few years ago if you’d have asked me about friends, I would never ever have thought that I was going to meet anyone new.

“I didn’t think I’d make new friends, and not in the way I have for Tayla. It really goes to show it doesn’t matter how long you’ve known someone.

“When you meet a soulmate of a friend, it’s just different. When you know, you know.”

Stephanie Lam

Stephanie Lam is another pal who’s stopped round Molly’s house to cheer her up.

Although they’ve both been on Love Island, their friendship started long before, having both grown up in Hertfordshire and competed in Irish dancing when they were younger.

Stephanie was one of the first of Molly’s friends to meet Bambi, and called the baby “the most special perfect little angel I’ve ever met” in a post on social media.

In 2022, Molly revealed she had gone on one of her only girls’ trips ever with Stephanie, to Belfast, where they watched Irish dancing.

“It was so cute. We had the best time,” she said.

But where’s Maura Higgins?

Oddly, Maura Higgins – who Molly met on Love Island and has remained close pals with since – hasn’t been seen supporting her friend or posted anything on social media.

Jo believes she’s showing her true colours with this behaviour, and potentially caring more about her public image.

She says: “I feel those who are going to support her, who are in the public eye, should have been saying something by now.

“They should have been posting on Insta, Molly has my unconditional support’.

“If they’re not saying that or doing something for her, then they’re clearly backing off to see how the cards fall, how the land lies. They’re protecting their own selves.

“It’s the ones who just think, ‘I don’t care what people think of me, I’m just going to be there for her’ – they’re your true friends at the end of the day.”
