Molly-Mae Hague watches Love Island on huge TV in new home - after 'distancing' from show

Molly-Mae Hague appears to have been watching the latest series of Love Island on a huge TV in her new home, after previously admitting to "distancing" herself from the show.

The influencer, 23, rose to prominence alongside boyfriend Tommy Fury, also 23, on the fifth series of the ITV2 dating show in 2019 - with the couple placing as the runners-up.

She has been open about having not wanted to become known simply as a former islander though, with her having ventured into the fashion industry and the world of vlogging since leaving the villa.

Despite her reservations about being linked to the reality series, Molly-Mae revealed she's not adverse to catching up on the drama as she was spotted tuning into the latest episode.

Molly-Mae recently moved into a new house with Tommy and has been showcasing parts of the property through a home account - @mollymaison_ - on Instagram.

One of the latest posts - uploaded last night - showed off marble flooring in a living area, with the couple's widescreen TV visible in the photo - with the content of it very apt.

It showed that Molly-Mae had the latest series of Love Island on, with the screen showing a scene from the first episode of the new series - which started earlier this week.

The TV showed current islander Amber Beckford, 24, stood outside the villa after it had been announced that the public had opted for her to couple-up with Dami Hope, 26.

Molly-Mae previously opened up about her experience after taking part in the show during an interview with the Sun, saying she had "distanced" herself from Love Island.

She said: "I never wanted to be known as a Love Islander because I felt it closed me off to a lot of other opportunities that I have now explored in the way I distanced myself."

The influencer suggested that if she had stuck with the label of being a former islander she wouldn't be the creative director of PLT - though "it wasn't necessarily all strategic."

Further opening up about not wanting to be known simply for the show, she added: "I've worked on distancing myself and not just being capped as being known as one thing."

The new series of Love Island continues tonight from 9pm on ITV and ITV Hub. You can catch up on previous episodes from the series through the ITV Hub and BritBox.
