Tommy Fury admits he often prefers 'a kiss and a cuddle' with Molly-Mae to having sex

Tommy Fury has admitted he often prefers to cuddle girlfriend Molly-Mae than having sex with her.

In a candid chat, the Love Island star and boxer revealed what intimacy looks like for him and Molly-Mae, 23.

The couple met on the 2019 series of the hit ITV show and just welcomed their first baby earlier this year.

Tommy appeared on Loose Men, a spin-off to Loose Women on Thursday and was on the panel with Vernon Kay, Paul Sinha and Martin Kemp, to coincide with Mental Health Awareness Week.

On the show he revealed: "No one wants to get hot and sweaty every night do they?

"A good kiss and a cuddle. Sometimes watch a film in bed. Sometimes that’s the better way."

Spandau Ballet star Martin Kemp, 61, added: "I don’t think the sex is the be all and end all of all relationships.

"More important than that is friendship."

Whilst appearing on the show, Tommy also says he plans to get engaged to Molly soon but there's a catch.

He said: "I’ve had it in the ear for the past two years, I think. My actual plan was to do a lot sooner but obviously, being a boxer, when you’re in a training camp you’ve got to completely shut yourself off, you want to just focus on the fight, so I can’t be going in and everywhere proposing."

Making a promise to Molly-Mae, he added: "I’m going to do it soon guys, honestly, I really am."

Last year Molly-Mae joked she was 'sick and tired' of being asked if Tommy proposed during their New York holiday.

In her vlog she said: "I'm getting a little bit sick and tired... no I'm joking, I'm not getting sick and tired but every single person thinks Tommy's proposing to me out here but he literally booked this trip two days ago.

"This hasn't been planned for long at all. I can promise you guys, he is not proposing to me."

In the video, he then smiles at the camera as Molly-Mae fumes at him and tells him: "Don't act like you are Tommy because we all know that you're not and everyone's gonna be like, 'oh he is!' I promise, he's not.

"I'm not saying that you won't propose at some point in the next year, but I know this trip is not the one."

Whilst after welcoming baby Bambi in January 2023, rumours began to swirl of their engagement again after Molly put out a plea.

During a recent fashion shoot with PrettyLittleThing in the South of France, the influencer revealed it was her favourite place she had ever been.

“It’s making me really question my thoughts of how I never, ever wanted to get married abroad,” she told fans in her YouTube vlog.

“I mean, it’s funny because I’m not even engaged yet and I’m talking about when I’m getting married. I’m getting a little bit ahead of myself aren’t I,” Molly-Mae said laughing into the camera.

The Love Island star continued: “I’ve always just pictured when Tommy and I get married that it would be in the UK. We’d get married in a big church and do it at home.

“Now we’ve come here and I’ve seen this unreal location, it makes me think an abroad wedding would actually be pretty stunning.”

Holding her ring finger up to the camera, Molly-Mae told her 1.7 million subscribers: “I haven’t even got the ring yet.”

Giving her boyfriend a nudge to pop the question soon, she said: “Tommy if you’re watching this!”
