Love Island stars Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury announce birth of baby girl

Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury have welcomed their first child together. The couple confirmed on Instagram as they shared the first pictures of their daughter with fans.

The Love Island stars were at the centre of much speculation in recent weeks, with fans left wondering whether or not Molly-Mae had given birth after she went quiet on social media. The 23-year-old announced on Monday that her baby girl was born on January 23, as fans and fellow former Islanders rushed to congratulate the pair.

Posting a picture of herself and Tommy in hospital as Tommy cradled the new-born tot, Molly-Mae simply captioned the sweet image with her daughter's date of birth and a white heart. She also shared a short clip of Tommy, 23, holding the baby against his chest and kissing the top of her head via her Instagram Stories.

In another of her Stories, Molly-Mae wrote alongside a black and white photo of herself holding her little girl: "One week old today. I can't believe we get to keep you forever.

"Becoming your mum has been the best thing to ever happen to me... it doesn't seem possible but my love for you grows with each passing moment. There is no feeling like holding you in my arms little one, my heart literally explodes.

"Thank you for entering this world safely for us and blessing us with the gift of being your parents. We promise to love and care for you unconditionally forever."

The Instagram post quickly received millions of likes from delighted fans, with some famous faces being among the first to congratulate Molly-Mae and Tommy. Fellow Love Island star Maura Higgins commented: "So so so proud of you always. She is so perfect."

Another Love Island alumna Zara McDermott added: "Congratulations you beautiful people. You deserve all the happiness. Excited for you and this new chapter."

Model Tamara Francesconi wrote: "Biggest biggest congrats! She's perfection and is so lucky to have you two as parents!"

And cleaning sensation Sophie Hinchcliffe, famously known as Mrs Hinch, said: "Oh my Molly, beautiful, just absolutely beautiful. Congratulations to you both, such a gorgeous family, ready to start their next chapter. Welcome to the world little one."
