Molly-Mae says she's 'not cut out' for parenting in heartbreaking Bambi update
Love Island star Molly-Mae Hague questioned whether she's 'cut out' for parenting after struggling with her daughter Bambi's tantrums
Love Island's Molly-Mae Hague admitted she's 'not cut out' for parenting after her two-year-old daughter Bambi, who she shares with Tommy Fury, refused to eat anything for three days. In her recent YouTube vlog, the 26-year-old Maebe founder said she is "selfish" as she discussed the stresses of motherhood.
The TV personality and businesswoman confessed to having "one of those days" as she told her followers: "I'm having one of those days, toddler mum days, where I question, 'am I actually cut out for this?'
"When I watch people's videos and hear them talking about motherhood and how much every single minute they love it, and I sit there and think, 'is there something wrong with me as a mum?'."
She added: "I can't sit there and say that every single minute I love it and I'm having one of those days. I don't even know if I'll put this in the video but I'm having one of those days where this is really not fun.
'Not all of it is enjoyable. I don't know how to explain it.' She went on to explain that she was having "one of those days" where she was finding dealing with daughter Bambi "impossible, absolutely impossible".
'Every single thing I try and ask her to do, she will not listen to me," Molly-Mae said. "She literally on purpose will do the opposite of everything I say or ask. The simplest things, she hasn't eaten in like three days because she is refusing to eat. I'm finding it really, really hard.
"Just simple things, there's been a new carpet put down at Tommy's house and we don't want to wear new shoes on the carpet, but telling her to take off her shoes and not walk on the carpet, it's the biggest tantrum and meltdown you've ever seen.
'She screams that much and gets that upset…I'm in this constant battle of I don't want to spoil them and let them win and not discipline them but also, where do you draw the line and give in because she's screaming so much that I'm not going to win this one.'
Molly-Mae said she found parenting to be "literally impossible" and asked fans whether she should be "finding it as hard as I do sometimes".
"I want to give Bambi a sibling, but the idea of this times by two, I don't know if I could ever do it. I don't know if I'm cut out for it," Molly-Mae continued.
'The fact that there's mums out there that do it with zero support from any family or anyone and have multiple children…the concept of having multiple children, I can't even. I don't know how anybody does that. I just don't.
'I want to have another baby at some point because I want to give Bambi a sibling, but the idea of this times by two, I don't know if I could ever do it.
"I don't know if I'm cut out for it.'

Love Island's Megan and Remell speak out for the first time after brutal dumping
Megan and Remell were dumped from the Love Island Villa on Friday night - and now, the pair are breaking their silence for the first time. Dumped Love Island stars Megan Clarke and Remell Mullins have spoken out after their brutal exit from the villa on Friday night. In the first public vote of the season, Megan and Remell found themselves voted as the least favourite Islanders and were dumped from the Island. In the public vote, Megan, Toni and Shakira were revealed as the three least popular girls while Remell, Harry and Ben received the fewest votes among the boys. However, fans were stunned when a text revealed that the decision on who would leave the villa was entirely in the hands of the public - a surprising twist, as Islanders are usually given the chance to weigh in. As a result, Megan and Remell were sent home in a shock exit. Megan was just starting to grow a connection with Conor, after the pair expressed their feelings for each other. However, their connection was fairly new as she spent the first two weeks of the show getting to know Tommy. Speaking about her exit, Megan stated: "I'm gutted to have left because I was getting to a really good place with Conor and I'd tied up loose ends with Tommy and Emily. "I would've liked to have left on better terms with Tommy. We were getting there, but that comes with time and I didn't have time on my side. I made best friends there and had an absolute ball." Megan was surprised to see herself voted as the public's least favourite, expressing: "I was surprised because I felt like everyone was getting on, but I can see why I would've been there because Tommy is an absolute angel and he deserves the world." Regarding her connection with Conor, Megan hopes to continue getting to know him whenever he leaves the villa, saying: "I definitely want to have something with Conor on the outside." She realises things can change quickly in the villa, and continued: "Me and Conor were at a really good stage. He was really upset so it broke my heart a little bit. Someone could walk in for him tomorrow and it could be different." The 24-year-old spoke about her dramatic 'love square' with Conor, Tommy and Emily. "The love square was crazy. We've heard of triangles but squares are insane! Emotions were constantly high and it's 'he said, she said' in there. I definitely think I could've gone about it better but I tried to navigate it the best that I could," she said. "At the end of the day you're there to do what you want to do, so it's hard to please everyone, especially in a square." Megan continued: "I did do some things and apologised after but it brought me and Conor closer and I'm happy where we are. I never intended to upset anyone, especially Emily and Tommy. They're literally gems and have been gems the whole time. It was bad of me but we're friends now and left on really good terms. "They're cracking on a bit as well so we kind of did a wife swap," she joked. Meanwhile Remell had just called things off with Alima, after she found out he was kissing bombshell Poppy over at the sleepover villa. The 24-year-old believed his actions with Poppy and fall out with Alima led him to being voted as the least favourite boy. He said: "I'm not surprised as I knew at The Sleepover that my decision would have repercussions." Speaking about his time with Poppy, Remell stated: "Despite me having what seemed to be a good connection with Poppy, my heart was telling me that I had to see it through with Alima." "The dynamic with Poppy was more what I'm used to on the outside. But building up slowly with Alima made me realise that that's important." Although it seems he had no regrets, continuing: "I didn't necessarily have to share the bed and kiss outside of the Truth or Dare game, however, being true to myself I'm naturally very flirty. I still acted like I would on the outside." Despite this, Remell said he would have done some things differently over at the sleepover villa, saying: "If Alima and I had had a conversation about boundaries, it would have made a difference. Communication is important and I'd do my best to change." The content creator wants to have a conversation with Alima when they are both in the normal world, as it was hard for them to talk inside the villa, expressing: "I felt a bit disrespected and put my guard up." Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.

Love Island star defends actions following dumping after cheating accusations
Love Island's Remell, who was voted out as the least favourite boy, has defended his actions and said things might be different if he and Alima 'set boundaries' Love Island's Remell has hit back at cheating claims as he defended his decision to stick with Alima after he spent a few days away at 'The Sleepover'. The latest episode saw the viewers vote for their favourite boy and favourite girl, with the two islanders with the fewest votes getting dumped from the villa. Remell said that he wasn't surprised that he was chosen to leave and admitted to taking a 'risk'. Opening up about his connections, he said: 'Despite me having what seemed to be a good connection with Poppy, my heart was telling me that I had to see it through with Alima. "The dynamic with Poppy was more what I'm used to on the outside. But building up slowly with Alima made me realise that that's important.' Remell continued and said that while he 'didn't necessarily have to share the bed and kiss outside of the Truth or Dare game', he acted how he would have done on the outside and was 'being true' to himself. Defending his actions, he said: 'There was never a conversation with Alima about being exclusive, we hadn't had that chat and hadn't spoken properly about boundaries either.' Alima was not pleased with Remell's actions while he was away and called it off straight away. Reflecting on the experience, he said: 'As soon as I came back from The Sleepover, I was ready to speak from the heart. But when I realised that she was hurt, I learned that it was a lot deeper than I originally thought.' He added: 'If Alima and I had had a conversation about boundaries, it would have made a difference. Communication is important and I'd do my best to change.' Remell said they didn't leave things on the best of terms, but that he would be open to having 'conversations'. He said: 'Things were left a bit sour. The reality is, the woman that was opening my heart and turning me into a lover boy is never going to truly know how I feel about her. "I was ready to tell her everything once I came back to the Villa, but because the conversation didn't end well, we didn't get to properly talk. We're both stubborn so it was hard to see eye to eye. 'I would be open to a conversation, but if she's not open to it then it's fine. It was hard for us to talk in the Villa because I felt a bit disrespected and put my guard up.' Elsewhere in the latest episode, Megan was voted as the least favourite girl and was sent packing despite getting to know Conor.

Katy Perry fans convinced she hinted at Orlando Bloom split last year
Katy Perry's fans think she may have hinted her relationship with Orlando Bloom was in trouble a year ago (Image: Getty Images for MTV) Fans of Katy Perry have uncovered possible signs she channeled her engagement breakdown into her latest album - suggesting her romance with Orlando Bloom could have been all but over last year. The 40--year-old American singer had been engaged to 48-year-old Bloom since 2016. The couple also welcomed a daughter named Daisy together - with the bundle of joy arriving in August 2020. However, reports this year suggested the couple have called time on their romance - and may have gone their separate ways weeks ago. Now fans have been examining the lyrics of songs featured on Katy's 2024 album 143 - including the break up song Truth. The lyrics of the track hint at a relationship ruined by disloyalty. Lyrics include: "I wanna know the truth / Even if it hurts me. I got a vision keepin' me up at night / My intuition's tellin' me things ain't right. "Can't look in the mirror, what is it you're tryna hide? / Can't give me your password to your phone, not start a fight / You're treating me different, tell me what's going through your mind?" Fans have been re-examining the lyrics of the songs she released in 2024 Katy's YouTube page has been buzzing with speculation as fans have been investigating the lyrics of the track. Taking to the comments of a video relating to the track Truth, one fan wrote: "Who's here after the breakup rumors?" Another typed: "So is this song about Orlando?" And a third commented: "Did he do something? Cause even back then I did think this song is so odd to be in a full love album." Earlier this month it was suggested Katy and Orlando had called time on their engagement and decided to split up. An insider claimed Katy's album 143 flopping impacted her relationship, with the source noting: "Orlando was supportive, but it caused some tension." Orlando has been spotted mingling with single women at the wedding of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez (Image: GC Images) PageSix reported that the couple are waiting until her current tour, Lifetimes, concludes on December 7, before making their split public news. And since these reports emerged, Orlando has been spotted flirting with women at the wedding of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez - which took place in Italy over the weekend. On Saturday, Katy shared a cryptic social media post that appeared to hint at her state of mind amid the reports of her relationship collapsing. Katy reposted a video from a digital guru who uses "the laws of the universe" to transform lives, suggesting that mastering these laws can "heal" one's life. In the shared clip, the guru stated, "The phase of the moon that was during your date of birth determines your purpose." Katy shared the video without adding any personal commentary, leaving fans to wonder if she was hinting at her own life's purpose. The video explained that those born during a Waning Crescent moon phase are here to "If you were born on a Waning Crescent, you are here to complete the mission that you feel. You are closing chapters no longer beneficial to the collective. You are laying groundwork for new beginnings. Your role is to be a savior to others." The singer also updated her fans with clips from her live performances, including a compilation from The Lifetimes Tour, showcasing her energetic stage presence. As she continues her international tour in Australia, she captioned her concert footage, "ONLY 4 SHOWS LEFT IN AUSTRALIA LFG ADELAIDE." With the tour keeping Katy in Australia, she was noticeably absent from Jeff and Lauren's wedding - despite the singer being a close friend of the couple. She even went to space with Lauren earlier this year on a rocket funded by Jeff's Blue Origin company. Like this story?
