WEBVTT - Molly-Mae’s Break Up Sparks TikTok Fury 0:00:02.560 --> 0:00:05.680 Hello, and welcome to Outspoken. It's your dose of the 0:00:05.720 --> 0:00:09.280 hottest influencer and pop culture news twice a week. I'm 0:00:09.320 --> 0:00:13.200 Sophie Torba and coming up on today's show, Sophie Kasha 0:00:13.280 --> 0:00:17.919 addresses speculation about her sperm donor, Indy Clinton, hires a 0:00:17.960 --> 0:00:21.280 sleep nurse, and everything you need to know about Molly 0:00:21.360 --> 0:00:25.479 May and Tommy Fury's shock split. But first, we have 0:00:25.520 --> 0:00:28.760 a special guest joining us fresh from Eternity leave. Kate. 0:00:28.960 --> 0:00:30.960 I didn't think you'd be back this quickly. Well, I've 0:00:31.000 --> 0:00:33.400 been called in at the last minute because Amy is 0:00:33.400 --> 0:00:35.839 not well and Sophy, you couldn't do a solo episode, 0:00:35.880 --> 0:00:37.960 and I jumped at the chance. I'm very excited to 0:00:38.000 --> 0:00:40.040 be back for this episode. Yeah, I need to talk 0:00:40.080 --> 0:00:42.600 to someone about the Molly May breakup. I just couldn't 0:00:42.640 --> 0:00:45.360 do a monologue of it on my own. No. I 0:00:45.400 --> 0:00:48.120 am so excited because whilst I've been feeding Jack, I 0:00:48.159 --> 0:00:50.360 have a spare hand, so I have been on TikTok. 0:00:50.720 --> 0:00:52.839 I am up with all the goss on this and 0:00:52.960 --> 0:00:55.720 I am devastated. Oh we are going to get into 0:00:55.720 --> 0:00:58.800 that one later, but it is just shocking news coming 0:00:58.800 --> 0:01:01.800 out of the UK. I also have to apologize because 0:01:01.800 --> 0:01:05.080 this episode is a day late. So we have switched 0:01:05.120 --> 0:01:08.160 up our main shows to come out on Tuesday and Thursday. 0:01:08.240 --> 0:01:11.280 But because of Amy's sickness, we thought we'd wait until today. 0:01:11.360 --> 0:01:14.160 But she's still not better. Yeah. I think it's because 0:01:14.480 --> 0:01:16.319 she did pop up on four Corners this week. It 0:01:16.360 --> 0:01:18.440 has been a big week for her. Yeah. So she 0:01:18.560 --> 0:01:21.240 was a part of the Luise Milligan investigation into the 0:01:21.280 --> 0:01:22.039 seven Network. 0:01:22.600 --> 0:01:26.440 It is one of the most soul crushing places you 0:01:26.440 --> 0:01:29.000 can work in smoke and mirrors. 0:01:29.280 --> 0:01:32.440 Channel seven likes to portray itself as a family. It's 0:01:32.480 --> 0:01:37.000 a very dysfunctional family, breaking seven silence. The fear is visceral. 0:01:37.160 --> 0:01:39.320 I haven't seen anything like it. I wouldn't just call 0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:41.400 it a second chance club. I'd call it a third, fourth, 0:01:41.440 --> 0:01:44.880 and fifth chance club. They shouldn't be in business if 0:01:44.920 --> 0:01:47.440 that's what they're doing to young women. How do they 0:01:47.520 --> 0:01:51.640 sleep at night. It is a really important story that 0:01:51.720 --> 0:01:54.360 I don't think is getting enough traction in the media 0:01:54.400 --> 0:01:57.000 at the moment. There are so many outlets that haven't 0:01:57.000 --> 0:02:00.720 covered it, I assume because of their connection with the network. 0:02:00.840 --> 0:02:03.240 That being said, go and check it out. It is 0:02:03.280 --> 0:02:06.240 on ABC iView and also YouTube and will put a 0:02:06.280 --> 0:02:07.880 link in the show notes to it because it is 0:02:07.920 --> 0:02:10.320 a very powerful report and one that more people should 0:02:10.360 --> 0:02:13.639 be talking about. It's also very surprising that social commentators 0:02:13.639 --> 0:02:15.600 haven't jumped on this one either, But I think it 0:02:15.720 --> 0:02:18.720 just demonstrates the power that this network yields. Yeah, well, 0:02:18.760 --> 0:02:21.079 a lot of the social commentators who would normally talk 0:02:21.120 --> 0:02:24.160 about these topics do have links to certain networks, so 0:02:24.760 --> 0:02:27.880 again it is disappointing. I think a lot of people 0:02:28.000 --> 0:02:30.639 are just in protection mode. 0:02:30.760 --> 0:02:33.680 I've been around this long enough to know that there's 0:02:33.760 --> 0:02:36.320 going to be a lot of conversation around it. 0:02:37.120 --> 0:02:40.320 Sophie Keisha has been forced to comment on rampant speculation 0:02:40.480 --> 0:02:43.440 that her ex husband Jared is her sperm donor. Ever 0:02:43.440 --> 0:02:46.160 since the pajama mogul announced last month that she's having 0:02:46.160 --> 0:02:48.840 a baby on her own, she has been bombarded with 0:02:48.919 --> 0:02:53.680 questions about the father's identity. Now, Sophie has been holidaying 0:02:53.680 --> 0:02:57.000 in Fiji with her daughter Florence when a follower's question 0:02:57.240 --> 0:02:59.919 tipped her over the edge. Yeah, so she was relaxing 0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:02.160 by the pool and she must have been checking her 0:03:02.240 --> 0:03:05.440 DMS and she came across this one. So a follower 0:03:05.480 --> 0:03:09.880 wrote I'm so interested in your conception, sperm donor Jared 0:03:10.120 --> 0:03:13.400 plan to co parent, family parent, not to be judgy, 0:03:13.480 --> 0:03:17.640 but to learn and then support respect privacy completely. So 0:03:17.720 --> 0:03:20.320 a little bit ironic that they respect privacy but have 0:03:20.400 --> 0:03:22.639 asked about five questions. More than that, DM, there's a 0:03:22.680 --> 0:03:25.440 lot of invasive questions in there now. Sophie hit back 0:03:25.520 --> 0:03:29.320 on her Instagram story confirming that Jared is not the father. 0:03:29.800 --> 0:03:32.640 She wrote, I knew I'd face questions and intrigue, and 0:03:32.680 --> 0:03:35.600 that's totally fine, and perhaps one day, when I'm ready, 0:03:35.640 --> 0:03:39.560 I would discuss everything. However, something I wasn't prepared for 0:03:39.920 --> 0:03:43.520 was the many assumptions and questions around my ex husband 0:03:43.560 --> 0:03:45.880 being the father. Do you know how many people have 0:03:46.040 --> 0:03:50.000 kids with their ex six years after separation? Loll. Just 0:03:50.040 --> 0:03:53.520 because we have an amicable family relationship co parenting our 0:03:53.560 --> 0:03:57.560 amazing Bobby and Florence, doesn't mean we're making more babies together. 0:03:58.000 --> 0:04:00.760 Wild leave him and his personal life life out of it. 0:04:00.960 --> 0:04:02.960 I can't believe it's been six years since they split 0:04:03.080 --> 0:04:05.119 up that has flown by it. It is crazy. 0:04:05.240 --> 0:04:05.440 Now. 0:04:05.560 --> 0:04:08.640 The reason why there has been so much speculation around 0:04:08.720 --> 0:04:12.880 Jared potentially being the father is because Sophie has previously 0:04:12.960 --> 0:04:16.080 revealed that she asked him to be her sperm donor. 0:04:16.200 --> 0:04:19.080 So she was married to the former AFL player for 0:04:19.120 --> 0:04:22.279 four years before realizing that she was attracted to women, 0:04:22.400 --> 0:04:25.200 and following the split, they have continued to be in 0:04:25.240 --> 0:04:27.680 one another's lives as friends and they have a very 0:04:27.720 --> 0:04:32.560 amicable co parenting relationship now. Sophie made this revelation a 0:04:32.600 --> 0:04:35.640 couple of years ago and created a series of Instagram 0:04:35.720 --> 0:04:39.400 stories where she explained that Jared had politely declined to 0:04:39.440 --> 0:04:42.160 be her sperm donor, and she laughed off the fact 0:04:42.200 --> 0:04:45.200 that he said no. So it's not clear how serious 0:04:45.240 --> 0:04:47.159 this discussion was or if it was a bit of 0:04:47.200 --> 0:04:50.640 a joke, but this is where this speculation and rumor 0:04:50.720 --> 0:04:53.200 is coming from. I did actually wonder if Jared was 0:04:53.240 --> 0:04:55.640 the sperm donor when I saw this news pop up, 0:04:55.680 --> 0:04:59.320 because I did remember her saying something about it. But again, 0:04:59.400 --> 0:05:02.719 it's so and so much happens in this influencer space 0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:05.120 that you kind of only remember little details of it, 0:05:05.200 --> 0:05:08.160 so I can understand why one of her followers would 0:05:08.200 --> 0:05:12.160 ask yeah. And Jared does have a new partner now, 0:05:12.320 --> 0:05:15.479 so I wonder if they have asked Sophie to address 0:05:15.520 --> 0:05:19.359 the speculation. They're probably over all of the rumors. The 0:05:19.400 --> 0:05:22.560 irony is though that addressing it has meant that there 0:05:22.560 --> 0:05:25.279 are a ton of headlines and photos of Sophie and 0:05:25.360 --> 0:05:28.080 Jared together all over the media, so it kind of 0:05:28.120 --> 0:05:31.080 makes it even more awkward. It would be so awkward 0:05:31.080 --> 0:05:33.560 for Jared and his new partner. I do feel for 0:05:33.600 --> 0:05:36.599 them being dragged into this story, and normally I would 0:05:36.640 --> 0:05:39.800 say it's really none of anyone's business, but Sophie has 0:05:40.000 --> 0:05:43.160 really gone out of her way to share information about 0:05:43.160 --> 0:05:46.359 this pregnancy announcement. She's launched her YouTube channel off the 0:05:46.400 --> 0:05:49.640 back of this announcement. She's been sharing very personal videos 0:05:49.680 --> 0:05:52.599 announcing the news to her kids. So you can see 0:05:52.600 --> 0:05:55.600 why people feel like they're entitled to know. Yeah. Well, 0:05:55.680 --> 0:05:58.240 Sophie did say she wasn't surprised that there was a 0:05:58.240 --> 0:06:01.039 lot of interest and intrigue around it, particularly because she 0:06:01.120 --> 0:06:03.560 has announced that she's doing this on her own. But 0:06:03.680 --> 0:06:06.960 she pointed out the heterosexual couples aren't faced with these 0:06:07.000 --> 0:06:10.560 types of invasive questions and that this line of questioning 0:06:10.760 --> 0:06:14.080 is really only reserved for queer people. Here's what she said. 0:06:15.240 --> 0:06:18.280 My point is, let's not be invasive to the queer community. 0:06:18.400 --> 0:06:21.240 Let's not be invasive to women who want to pursue 0:06:21.279 --> 0:06:23.640 this on their own. Let's not be invasive to the 0:06:23.640 --> 0:06:27.000 two dads that are having a baby together and say, so, 0:06:27.040 --> 0:06:27.520 whose is it? 0:06:28.120 --> 0:06:30.480 Which one sperm made the magic? 0:06:30.760 --> 0:06:35.839 Like, let's just be happy that there's babies coming into 0:06:35.880 --> 0:06:38.040 the world, and that's beautiful. It doesn't matter how they 0:06:38.040 --> 0:06:38.560 got here. 0:06:40.000 --> 0:06:44.560 I just think picture yourself asking that question to straight couples. 0:06:45.120 --> 0:06:45.800 How'd you do it? 0:06:46.480 --> 0:06:49.280 Did you fuck? Did you need medication? 0:06:50.760 --> 0:06:51.120 Anyway? 0:06:51.760 --> 0:06:55.000 She also created a series of stories saying that it's 0:06:55.080 --> 0:06:59.200 interesting that so many people online felt comfortable asking her 0:06:59.240 --> 0:07:02.560 this question, but no one in her close circle asked 0:07:02.600 --> 0:07:05.200 her where the baby came from. Well, it's good that 0:07:05.240 --> 0:07:07.960 people in her own personal circle haven't been questioning her 0:07:07.960 --> 0:07:10.160 and haven't been invasive. But do you think that's because 0:07:10.160 --> 0:07:12.400 they already know that she's doing IVF, You know what 0:07:12.440 --> 0:07:15.560 I mean, because obviously that she's probably had more conversations 0:07:15.920 --> 0:07:18.840 with them around what her plan of attack is. It 0:07:18.920 --> 0:07:20.640 is good to know that she's not getting this line 0:07:20.680 --> 0:07:23.760 of questioning from people within her circle, but that's most 0:07:23.800 --> 0:07:27.200 likely because they already know the details. Yeah, I do 0:07:27.240 --> 0:07:30.800 think she made a good point generally about the queer community, though, 0:07:30.800 --> 0:07:33.320 because I don't think that anyone has the right to 0:07:33.400 --> 0:07:37.600 question the circumstances around same sex pregnancy or ask those 0:07:37.640 --> 0:07:40.360 who choose to do it on their own very invasive questions. 0:07:40.400 --> 0:07:43.280 I think that pregnancy is so complex and it should 0:07:43.320 --> 0:07:46.800 always be approached with a lot of sensitivity and respect. Yeah, 0:07:46.800 --> 0:07:49.360 but it's not just queer people who get invasive questions 0:07:49.400 --> 0:07:52.040 when they're pregnant. It's quite a common thing. I was 0:07:52.080 --> 0:07:55.040 obviously pregnant recently, and people just think they can ask 0:07:55.120 --> 0:07:58.440 you whatever they like. But I also think with queer couples, 0:07:58.480 --> 0:08:00.840 people are more brazen and almost act like it's their 0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:03.320 right to know. But I wouldn't take this as a 0:08:03.360 --> 0:08:07.920 blueprint of what normally happens, because it's a very different situation. 0:08:08.480 --> 0:08:11.960 Sophie Keisha is clearly trying to resurrect her mummy blogging career, 0:08:12.360 --> 0:08:15.800 and she's made a fortune off oversharing about her life. 0:08:16.120 --> 0:08:19.360 I always think it's a positive because she can actually 0:08:19.400 --> 0:08:22.200 show people what the process is like for a queer 0:08:22.240 --> 0:08:25.280 woman having a child through IVF and going through the 0:08:25.320 --> 0:08:28.080 sperm donor process. I mean, it's a very hot topic 0:08:28.120 --> 0:08:30.440 at the moment after that Netflix dot co about the 0:08:30.480 --> 0:08:33.480 guy that had a thousand children just dropped. I mean, 0:08:33.520 --> 0:08:35.560 I would be so intrigued to learn more, and I 0:08:35.600 --> 0:08:37.719 do really think it's a great chance for Sophie to 0:08:37.760 --> 0:08:40.439 share about her experience, one that we don't see all 0:08:40.480 --> 0:08:42.520 the time on the internet. Yeah, I mean, I think 0:08:42.559 --> 0:08:45.720 she has every right to set boundaries and urge people 0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:49.160 to stop the speculation, particularly around her ex husband, because 0:08:49.160 --> 0:08:51.320 that would be tough to deal with. She did point 0:08:51.320 --> 0:08:53.960 out that when she's ready, she will open up more 0:08:54.000 --> 0:08:57.560 about her IVF experience, but that has led to people 0:08:57.679 --> 0:09:03.040 speculating that she's building intrigue purposely around her conception path 0:09:03.559 --> 0:09:06.160 so she can monetize it on her channel, because her 0:09:06.160 --> 0:09:09.680 whole pregnancy reveals so far has been very strategic in 0:09:09.800 --> 0:09:12.440 terms of the information that has been drip fed on 0:09:12.440 --> 0:09:15.360 a YouTube account. I mean we've seen her announce like 0:09:15.400 --> 0:09:18.480 there's been two separate videos for her announcing it to 0:09:18.520 --> 0:09:20.679 her kids, so she's one announcing it to Filossy, one 0:09:20.720 --> 0:09:24.040 announcing it to Bobby. So people are thinking maybe she's 0:09:24.080 --> 0:09:27.240 going to come out with a partnership with an IVF clinic, 0:09:27.760 --> 0:09:30.000 or it's going to be built into something that gets 0:09:30.280 --> 0:09:32.840 a lot of traction and a lot of eyeballs on it. 0:09:32.840 --> 0:09:35.920 It is an interesting shift of gears because Sophie has 0:09:35.960 --> 0:09:38.320 been quite open about the fact that she wants her 0:09:38.400 --> 0:09:40.480 private life to be private, and that was around the 0:09:40.520 --> 0:09:43.400 time she split up from her fiance Maddi Garrick. Now, 0:09:43.480 --> 0:09:46.200 I personally think what has caused this change is that 0:09:46.240 --> 0:09:49.000 the cost of living is catching up with everyone, and 0:09:49.240 --> 0:09:52.400 she was building a house with Maddie and obviously she 0:09:52.400 --> 0:09:54.840 thought Maddie was going to move in and actually help 0:09:54.920 --> 0:09:57.520 her pay the mortgage off. That hasn't happened, and the 0:09:57.559 --> 0:09:59.520 interest rates have gone up. So I think she needs 0:09:59.559 --> 0:10:02.680 to monetiz her personal life. Well, she's put up on Keasha, 0:10:02.840 --> 0:10:06.480 her pajama brand site, that there's a huge announcement coming soon. 0:10:06.880 --> 0:10:09.960 I'm expecting that she's going to be bringing out baby 0:10:10.000 --> 0:10:13.840 pajamas or maternity pajamas, something along those lines. So again 0:10:14.280 --> 0:10:16.000 monetizing her life situation. 0:10:16.880 --> 0:10:19.960 What did Tommy do to my Molly May? 0:10:20.520 --> 0:10:21.200 What did Tommy? 0:10:22.280 --> 0:10:24.480 What does Tommy do then? Because I know my Molly's 0:10:24.520 --> 0:10:24.840 a saint. 0:10:24.920 --> 0:10:28.000 Yeah, let me in a fucking room with them, let 0:10:28.040 --> 0:10:29.920 me and they love you Molly May. We start with 0:10:29.960 --> 0:10:32.920 the Molly May we stum with Miss May fucking distraught 0:10:32.960 --> 0:10:33.440 for her. 0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:36.640 Molly May Hague has sent shockwaves around the world by 0:10:36.679 --> 0:10:40.240 announcing her split from fiance and baby daddy Tommy Fury. 0:10:40.600 --> 0:10:43.040 Fans of the high profile couple who met five years 0:10:43.080 --> 0:10:45.400 ago on Love Island are struggling to deal with the 0:10:45.440 --> 0:10:49.479 news and are convinced a cheating scandal is brewing. Sophie, 0:10:49.600 --> 0:10:52.880 I can't quite believe it. I feel genuinely shattered about 0:10:52.880 --> 0:10:56.520 this announcement. This has hit so many people so hard, 0:10:56.559 --> 0:10:59.240 and I have to go into how I found out 0:10:59.240 --> 0:11:01.920 this news because everyone knows that I'm a massive Molly 0:11:01.920 --> 0:11:04.679 May fan. I did see someone comment on her Instagram 0:11:04.720 --> 0:11:07.160 that they'll remember the spot they were when they found 0:11:07.160 --> 0:11:09.800 out this news. It's quite similar to when you found 0:11:09.840 --> 0:11:12.800 out about Princess Diana passing away or I mean, I 0:11:12.880 --> 0:11:15.040 don't think it's quite that big. The people are saying 0:11:15.080 --> 0:11:17.120 it's that big at the moment, Well, people are calling 0:11:17.160 --> 0:11:19.320 Molly May the people's princess, and that is what Princess 0:11:19.320 --> 0:11:21.800 Diana used to be called. Well, I have to reveal 0:11:21.800 --> 0:11:23.480 that I was actually on the toilet when I found 0:11:23.480 --> 0:11:26.040 out this news as most people do. I was scrolling. 0:11:26.400 --> 0:11:28.000 I was just getting ready to go to bed. It 0:11:28.040 --> 0:11:30.000 was about twelve thirty. God, this would have set you off. 0:11:30.040 --> 0:11:33.679 And I saw this post appear on tea time and 0:11:33.720 --> 0:11:35.080 I was like, oh, it was this about It's about 0:11:35.080 --> 0:11:37.160 a breakup. And I was like, holy fuck, is that 0:11:37.280 --> 0:11:39.680 say Molly May. I was like no way, and my 0:11:39.720 --> 0:11:42.160 partner was in the shower. I rushed in to tell 0:11:42.240 --> 0:11:45.400 him he could not care less, but I needed to 0:11:45.440 --> 0:11:47.800 talk to someone about it. I quickly threw something up 0:11:47.840 --> 0:11:49.680 on our Instagram, even though I was like, this is 0:11:49.720 --> 0:11:52.120 the dead of the night, people won't be consuming this. 0:11:52.240 --> 0:11:54.480 But I was surprised how many people were still up 0:11:54.679 --> 0:11:57.400 and how many people were dying to talk about this. Well. 0:11:57.440 --> 0:12:00.600 I was asleep and I woke up at five to 0:12:00.760 --> 0:12:03.520 this news and I looked at my phone and I 0:12:03.559 --> 0:12:06.600 said there were thirty eight messenger notifications and I was like, 0:12:06.640 --> 0:12:08.959 holy shit, what's gone down? And I saw you know 0:12:09.000 --> 0:12:10.960 when you scroll the messages up and only a few 0:12:11.040 --> 0:12:13.319 pop up, and it said Kate will be shocked when 0:12:13.360 --> 0:12:15.839 she wakes up to find out this, and I was like, 0:12:15.960 --> 0:12:20.040 oh my god, what's happened. Who's died? Yes, anyway, I 0:12:20.080 --> 0:12:21.760 can see why you thought I would be shocked. I 0:12:21.840 --> 0:12:24.480 was relieved it wasn't any sort of you know, more 0:12:24.520 --> 0:12:27.960 sinister news. But this really did flaw me. I know 0:12:28.000 --> 0:12:30.320 it sounds lame to be invested in this couple that 0:12:30.360 --> 0:12:34.120 you don't know, but I bought into this so hard 0:12:34.280 --> 0:12:37.880 because even though there's been rumors for the past year 0:12:38.040 --> 0:12:42.200 about potential infidelity, I just think that they gave off 0:12:42.280 --> 0:12:46.600 previously such wholesome couple vibes. And because I love Molly's 0:12:46.600 --> 0:12:50.680 so much, I wanted to believe that things were fine 0:12:50.679 --> 0:12:53.040 at home with her. Well. I was devastated when the 0:12:53.080 --> 0:12:55.320 recent series of Love Island ended because that was my 0:12:55.440 --> 0:12:58.680 show when I had, you know, an hour of free time, 0:12:58.760 --> 0:13:01.440 That's what I was watching. I have started watching the 0:13:01.480 --> 0:13:04.760 Love Island series that Tommy and Molly recently, and were 0:13:04.800 --> 0:13:07.600 only a few episodes in, but Tommy came in as 0:13:07.600 --> 0:13:10.880 one of the first bombshells and I just was watching it. 0:13:10.920 --> 0:13:14.000 I'm thinking he is just so nice, because he's like, Oh, 0:13:14.120 --> 0:13:17.560 everyone thinks of me as this you know, big boxer, 0:13:17.600 --> 0:13:19.680 but I'm not like that. I love Hannah Montanner, and 0:13:19.840 --> 0:13:22.440 you know, I remember watching their vlogs and thinking how 0:13:22.440 --> 0:13:25.800 perfect they were together because he seemed to just get Molly. 0:13:26.080 --> 0:13:28.280 You know, in fact, they would play with those toys together. 0:13:28.360 --> 0:13:30.880 And who gets Ellie belly in this split, Well Molly 0:13:30.960 --> 0:13:33.480 clearly does. I think Molly gets everything in this split. 0:13:33.679 --> 0:13:35.760 I know it sounds pathetic, but I couldn't fall asleep 0:13:35.840 --> 0:13:39.120 last night thinking one, how heartbroken Molly must be feeling, 0:13:39.240 --> 0:13:42.320 and two how is she coping with this in the 0:13:42.320 --> 0:13:45.760 public eye, Because not only was this all over socials, 0:13:45.840 --> 0:13:49.800 but this announcement was breaking news on BBC and that 0:13:49.960 --> 0:13:53.120 sort of treatment is usually reserved for a listers or 0:13:53.120 --> 0:13:56.360 the role family. Well, it's also trending on TikTok at 0:13:56.400 --> 0:13:58.280 the moment, and I do think we need to get 0:13:58.320 --> 0:14:02.480 into Molly's statement because it speaks volumes. So she was 0:14:02.520 --> 0:14:04.719 the first to break the news, and she released a 0:14:04.760 --> 0:14:07.920 statement on her Instagram story which read, never in a 0:14:07.960 --> 0:14:10.240 million years did I think I'd ever have to write 0:14:10.320 --> 0:14:13.439 this after five years of being together. I never imagined 0:14:13.520 --> 0:14:16.720 our story would end, especially not this way. I am 0:14:16.760 --> 0:14:19.520 extremely upset to announce that mine and Tommy's relationship has 0:14:19.560 --> 0:14:22.040 come to an end. I will be forever grateful for 0:14:22.080 --> 0:14:24.240 the most important thing to me now and always my 0:14:24.280 --> 0:14:27.440 beautiful daughter. Without us, there would be no her. She 0:14:27.480 --> 0:14:29.640 will always beat my priority. I want to thank you 0:14:29.680 --> 0:14:31.200 all for the love you have shown us over the 0:14:31.280 --> 0:14:33.800 last five years. You've all been a part of our journey, 0:14:33.840 --> 0:14:35.440 and I feel it's right to share this with you 0:14:35.520 --> 0:14:38.440 all whilst I attempt to navigate the coming days and weeks. 0:14:38.440 --> 0:14:41.680 Please kindly respect my privacy over this difficult time. I'll 0:14:41.720 --> 0:14:45.040 be back when it feels right. Molly May, this was 0:14:45.120 --> 0:14:47.840 so loaded. There is so much to unpack here. I 0:14:47.880 --> 0:14:51.040 think the most telling part of this statement is Molly's 0:14:51.040 --> 0:14:54.880 saying I never imagined our story would end, especially not 0:14:55.240 --> 0:14:59.040 this way, Because to me, this implies that a lot 0:14:59.120 --> 0:15:01.840 of shit has gone down. This is not a we 0:15:01.960 --> 0:15:05.880 fell out of love or we parted mutually. This comment 0:15:06.000 --> 0:15:09.640 suggests that Tommy has fucked up and that there's cheating involved. 0:15:09.680 --> 0:15:12.400 Because I do not think for a second that Molly 0:15:12.520 --> 0:15:16.680 May has done anything wrong. She's a fucking saint, that woman. Yeah, 0:15:16.680 --> 0:15:18.360 And also the fact that she was the first to 0:15:18.360 --> 0:15:20.320 break the news. It's not like her and Tommy release 0:15:20.360 --> 0:15:23.240 the statement at the same time. Often when couples are 0:15:23.240 --> 0:15:25.240 trying to push that this is a mutual thing. They'll 0:15:25.280 --> 0:15:28.760 release the same statement and they'll talk quite glowingly about 0:15:28.800 --> 0:15:31.960 each other, particularly when the kids are involved. They'll sugarcoat 0:15:31.960 --> 0:15:33.640 it and be like, we're still going to be a 0:15:33.680 --> 0:15:36.480 family and we love and respect each other. It does 0:15:36.520 --> 0:15:38.800 feel like her hand was forced in this situation and 0:15:38.840 --> 0:15:41.520 she had to come out with this announcement quite quickly 0:15:41.640 --> 0:15:45.880 because the timing is interesting. Her sister, Zoe Haiges's wedding 0:15:46.000 --> 0:15:49.000 made big headlines a couple of weeks ago, and she's 0:15:49.040 --> 0:15:52.040 currently on her honeymoon. So you would think that you 0:15:52.120 --> 0:15:54.160 might wait for your sister to be back be a 0:15:54.200 --> 0:15:56.440 support there for you. Well. Also, I don't think she'd 0:15:56.480 --> 0:15:59.120 want to impact her sister's honeymoon. She wouldn't want to 0:15:59.160 --> 0:16:02.120 ruin that time her because you know, if I was 0:16:02.160 --> 0:16:04.080 on my honeymoon and I found out that one of 0:16:04.120 --> 0:16:07.520 you guys were going through this shock divorce, it would 0:16:07.600 --> 0:16:09.600 dampen my time. I feel like I need to rush 0:16:09.680 --> 0:16:11.200 back and be there with you. Yeah, it was not 0:16:11.240 --> 0:16:13.480 a divorce. They actually haven't been sorry, I forget that 0:16:13.520 --> 0:16:16.920 they actually haven't been married. I just yeah, it'd be 0:16:16.960 --> 0:16:19.640 so tough to be facing this public scrutiny, though without 0:16:19.680 --> 0:16:24.120 your support based by your side now. Bizarrely, hours before 0:16:24.120 --> 0:16:27.920 Molly made her statement, Tommy shared a compilation of old 0:16:28.000 --> 0:16:31.000 clips of the couple together on his Snapchat story of 0:16:31.040 --> 0:16:34.160 all places, and in the vision, it showed them on 0:16:34.200 --> 0:16:37.280 a holiday together when their daughter Bambi was very young. 0:16:37.760 --> 0:16:40.760 It also portrayed Tommy as being this doting dad who 0:16:40.800 --> 0:16:43.600 was very hands on, and there was also vision of 0:16:43.680 --> 0:16:47.760 Molly surprising Tommy with balloons after one of his big fights, 0:16:48.160 --> 0:16:50.400 and there were also lots of shots of them hugging 0:16:50.520 --> 0:16:53.280 and being all over each other. He also included vision 0:16:53.320 --> 0:16:56.640 of him surprising Molly on her work trip last year 0:16:56.680 --> 0:16:59.920 to celebrate that anniversary. It was almost like he was 0:17:00.080 --> 0:17:04.199 trying to stop Molly from making this announcement public and 0:17:04.280 --> 0:17:06.760 show her what she'd be missing if she does make 0:17:06.760 --> 0:17:09.000 the announcement. Yeah, there seemed to be a lot of 0:17:09.040 --> 0:17:12.760 emotional blackmail within that Snapchat compilation. He did end up 0:17:12.760 --> 0:17:16.440 deleting it, and around an hour after Molly made her statement, 0:17:16.680 --> 0:17:19.520 Tommy released his saying I am heartbroken to share that 0:17:19.560 --> 0:17:22.159 Molly and I have decided to end our relationship. The 0:17:22.200 --> 0:17:24.400 past five years have led us to having our beautiful 0:17:24.440 --> 0:17:27.320 baby girl, Bambi, and I'll be forever thankful to Molly 0:17:27.400 --> 0:17:30.160 for making me a dad. Bambi is our priority. Please 0:17:30.200 --> 0:17:33.160 respect our privacy and our families privacy as we navigate 0:17:33.160 --> 0:17:35.720 our way through this difficult time. Don't you think it 0:17:35.760 --> 0:17:38.240 seems like he kind of copy and pasted Molly's yeah, 0:17:38.280 --> 0:17:40.800 But fans have pointed out that there were some key 0:17:40.880 --> 0:17:45.760 differences between the two statements because Tommy kept saying our 0:17:45.960 --> 0:17:49.080 daughter whilst Molly was saying my daughter. 0:17:49.359 --> 0:17:49.639 Yeah. 0:17:49.680 --> 0:17:51.800 And I also thought it was interesting that Tommy started 0:17:51.800 --> 0:17:54.880 by saying that he's heartbroken. He also tried to make 0:17:54.920 --> 0:17:57.520 it sound like they'd come to this decision mutually, but 0:17:57.560 --> 0:18:00.080 it's clear from Molly's statement they did not to me. 0:18:00.400 --> 0:18:04.280 The couple's social media activity also suggests that this breakup 0:18:04.359 --> 0:18:08.560 is happening in real time, because often celebrities will announce 0:18:08.600 --> 0:18:11.639 a breakup to their followers once time has passed and 0:18:11.640 --> 0:18:14.119 once they've had a bit of time to heal privately. 0:18:14.600 --> 0:18:17.560 But only two weeks ago, Molly shared a post about 0:18:17.600 --> 0:18:21.240 the anniversary of their engagement and referred to Tommy as 0:18:21.280 --> 0:18:24.720 the love of her life, and also in early May 0:18:24.960 --> 0:18:28.320 at Zoe Haig's wedding. Tommy also shared a photo of 0:18:28.400 --> 0:18:31.840 him and Molly and Bambi and wrote my everything in 0:18:31.880 --> 0:18:35.200 a photo, to which Molly replied, love this pick so much. 0:18:35.240 --> 0:18:38.680 So A lot has gone down in a couple of weeks. Yeah, 0:18:38.680 --> 0:18:41.600 And I was only just watching Mollie May's YouTube and 0:18:41.640 --> 0:18:44.760 she put out a vlog recently, and she did speak 0:18:44.800 --> 0:18:47.040 about the fact that she was solo parenting, and she 0:18:47.119 --> 0:18:49.919 had said that the reason why was because Tommy was 0:18:50.200 --> 0:18:52.919 recording his audio book. Let's wrote to more of what 0:18:53.000 --> 0:18:54.440 she said, I have. 0:18:54.480 --> 0:18:59.080 Been solo parenting pretty much the entire week. And I 0:18:59.080 --> 0:19:01.919 she'd been so apparent for like two weeks now, basically 0:19:01.920 --> 0:19:04.160 because Tommy's just been so busy and when he's home 0:19:04.200 --> 0:19:06.520 from doing work and stuff, like he's so incredible and 0:19:06.600 --> 0:19:09.120 so helpful. Like I can't say any different, like he's 0:19:09.160 --> 0:19:11.840 such an incredible dad. But I have been this week 0:19:12.000 --> 0:19:16.119 like just really mum life has been mumlifing and I 0:19:16.200 --> 0:19:17.919 say that a lot, but like I just feel like 0:19:17.960 --> 0:19:19.639 at the minute, I've been struggling a little bit. 0:19:20.080 --> 0:19:22.720 And then during the vog, she also mentioned that there 0:19:22.800 --> 0:19:25.320 was a lot going on and that she had been 0:19:25.520 --> 0:19:27.080 crying a lot. Let's throw to that. 0:19:28.200 --> 0:19:30.159 So much going on in my life right now. If 0:19:30.200 --> 0:19:31.720 I'd pound for every time I to say that, I'd 0:19:32.359 --> 0:19:35.359 be a catrillion there crying fit that I had because 0:19:35.359 --> 0:19:36.800 I was having a really stressful day and it just 0:19:36.800 --> 0:19:38.560 like completely hiped me over the edge, and I was like, 0:19:38.600 --> 0:19:40.840
