Molly Mae Haag ‘wasn’t sure she’d ever feel happy again’ after Bambi’s birth as she cries as she watches video of her struggling to comfort her screaming daughter
Molly-Mae Haag admitted that she was “not sure she would ever feel happy again” after the birth of her daughter Bambi.
In an emotional conversation posted to YouTube on Thursday, the former Love Island star, 24, said she burst into tears when she saw a clip of her struggling to comfort her screaming daughter.
The former Love Island star welcomed her first child seven months ago with fiancé Tommy Fury, also 24.
Molly-Mae explained that before setting up her vlogging equipment to film a daily makeup tutorial, she came across some old footage from when Bambi was a newborn.
The reality TV star said, “I came across a video that literally almost made me cry.”

On the edge: The 24-year-old spoke very candidly about her emotions during the first weeks of her daughter’s life, saying: ‘I wasn’t sure I’d ever feel happy again’
Molly-Mae was quick to add a touch of humor to the conversation by blaming her emotions for the fact that her period should start soon.
“I was home alone with Bambi and she was only a few weeks old.
“She was literally screaming and crying, she had colic.
“I was trying to start vlogging again and I was really trying to rush myself to talk to you guys again and be present for you guys again.
“I was just desperate not to fall off.”
In retrospect, Molly said she tried to pick things up too quickly and didn’t give herself time to understand the changes in her life.
“I think seeing that video really made me think about how ridiculously far I’ve come and as weird as it sounds, I wasn’t sure I’d ever feel happy again. That’s how hard I found the first weeks.’
The influencer also revealed that it took seven months for her vision of motherhood to become a reality and encouraged other moms to keep going.

“I’d say I’m just now really experiencing what I thought motherhood would be like and Bambi is almost seven months old.
“I don’t want to sound like a broken record, as you know, I’ve talked a lot about motherhood and that I found it much harder than I thought, but I just want to say it to those other moms who have that young newborn screaming baby and you find it very, very difficult.
“I know I’ve said it so many times, but I just want to repeat it. I promise it will get so much easier.’
Molly-Mae took to Instagram on Friday to share some sweet snaps of fiance Tommy with herself and Bambi.
The couple spent a moment cuddling on the couch, while another picture showed Bambi and Tommy having some father-daughter time.
These posts come after Tommy praised Molly-Mae for being “a good support system” and “maintaining the fort” as he prepares for his next fight against KSI
Speaking to Capital’s Jimmy Hill, Tommy said Molly-Mae was “a star.”
When asked if he struggles with work-life balance, he explained, “Not if you have a good wife.
“Everyone else, you’re engaged to them and they’re like, ‘Oh, you run away for 10, 12 weeks or whatever. You’re not going to do that, you have to stay home with me and the baby’…and this and that.’
