Tommy Fury has revealed his fiancée Molly-Mae Haag hates boxing and praised her for supporting his career.
Tommy, 24, has followed in his brother Tyson’s footsteps and Molly-Mae has made no secret of her dislike for seeing him in the ring.
Now Tommy has spoken out further about Molly-Mae’s dislike of the sport, revealing she only ‘tolerates’ boxing because it makes him happy.
Tommy, who met Molly-Mae on Love Island in 2019, praised his fiancée for supporting his passion despite ‘hating’ it himself.
He continued BBC breakfast: ‘She looks at the ground while I fight. She only tolerates boxing because she knows how happy it makes me. That is it.

‘Besides, she hates it. She doesn’t like to talk about it, she doesn’t like to look at it, nothing, that I can understand.’
Tommy admitted he understands how difficult it must be for Molly-Mae to see him – the father of their daughter Bambi, nine months – get beaten in the ring.
“She watches her partner, the father of her baby, get into the ring, get into a fight and get punched,” he continued.
“It’s not a nice feeling to go through, so I commend her, I do.”
Tommy is gearing up to fight his rival KSI at the AO Arena in Manchester on October 14 after beating YouTuber boxer Jake Paul in Saudi Arabia earlier this year.
Molly-Mae has previously made no secret of her hatred of Tommy in the ring and stayed away from TV during his fight with Jake in February.
While she sweetly broke down in tears when she heard of his win at the time, new mum Molly-Mae couldn’t bear to actually see Tommy in the ring.
She stayed in Britain with their newborn daughter Bambi, who had been born just weeks earlier, while Tommy left for his long-awaited showdown with Jake.

But she didn’t watch the fight on TV, with her sister Zoe sharing a clip of her taking shelter in her bedroom as her family and friends watched the clash.
Molly-Mae went on to talk about how difficult it is to watch the father of her child step into a boxing ring as she and Tommy appeared on Tyson and Paris Fury’s Netflix show, At Home With The Furys.
She praised Tyson’s wife Paris for being able to go and watch the fights, while admitting she always looked at the ground instead of watching Tommy in the ring.
Molly-Mae and Tommy met on Love Island in 2019 and welcomed their daughter Bambi in January. They then got engaged just months later in July.
