Even Molly-Mae reuses baby toys - the enormous giraffe from Bambi's nursery is making a comeback for her son
If you’ve ever passed baby items from one child to the next, it turns out you’re in pretty good company.
Even Molly-Mae Hague appears to be reusing some of her daughter Bambi’s nursery favourites after welcoming her second child with Tommy Fury.
The influencer has given fans their first proper glimpse into life as a family of four after announcing the arrival of her baby son last week, by sharing a series of sweet snaps from home on her Instagram stories.
While most people’s attention was understandably on the newborn, eagle-eyed followers spotted a familiar face lurking in the background of the photos.

And no, we don’t mean Tommy.
Standing tall in the corner of the room was the enormous giraffe that super fans might just remember from when Bambi was a baby.
The towering toy could be seen behind Tommy as he cuddled his sleeping son, while it also made another appearance in the background of a family selfie featuring Molly-Mae, Tommy, Bambi, and the newest addition to the family, whose name hasn’t been revealed to the public yet.
The giraffe in question
If you’ve followed Molly-Mae’s journey into motherhood over the past few years, you’ll probably recognise the oversized wildlife toy immediately.
The towering giraffe was often visible in photos and videos from Bambi's nursery after she was born in January 2023, becoming a surprisingly memorable fixture in the influencer's home.
The giraffe itself is believed to be a Melissa & Doug Giant Giraffe, a life-sized plush toy that stands over four feet tall. The cream and brown toy added a subtle pop of colour among the neutral tones of Bambi’s nursery.
Molly-Mae might have built a hugely successful business and become one of the UK’s biggest influencers, but when it comes to children’s toys, she appears to be taking the same approach as plenty of other parents.
While most parents might not have a giraffe that stands almost as tall as they do, plenty will know the feeling of bringing out treasured baby items for a younger sibling.
Whether it’s a favourite teddy bear, a beautiful outfit or a much-loved blanket, some things are simply too special to use once and put away forever.
Considering the giraffe has been there since the beginning of both of the Fury children’s lives, it’s clearly earned its place in the Fury-Hague household.

Molly-Mae and Tommy welcome baby number two
We spotted the giraffe on Molly-Mae’s Instagram just days after Molly-Mae announced the arrival of her second child with Tommy Fury.
Although Molly-Mae has largely kept details surrounding her second pregnancy private, fans have been eagerly awaiting news of the baby’s arrival for weeks.
Since sharing the announcement, she’s gradually begun posting small glimpses into life at home as the family adjusts to their newest addition.
The photos have offered followers a rare insight into those first precious newborn days, with fans flooding the comments with messages of congratulations.
Their Love Island story hasn’t always been straightforward
Of course, Molly-Mae and Tommy's growing family is the latest chapter in a relationship that has been followed closely ever since they met on Love Island in 2019.
The pair coupled up during the fifth series of the ITV dating show and quickly became one of the season's strongest couples.
Although they finished in second place, they went on to become one of the show's biggest success stories.
Over the following years, they moved in together, built their dream home and welcomed daughter Bambi before Tommy proposed during a romantic trip to Ibiza.
For many fans, they looked set to have the perfect fairytale ending.
But things took an unexpected turn when the pair announced they had split.
The news came as a shock to many followers, who had watched their relationship develop both on and off social media for years.
Despite the breakup, speculation continued that the pair remained on good terms as they co-parented Bambi.
Eventually, they found their way back to each other.
In recent months, both Molly-Mae and Tommy have spoken about rebuilding their relationship and focusing on their family, with fans delighted to see them happier together.
After everything they've been through over the past few years, it's easy to see why fans are so happy for them.
With Bambi as a big sister and a newborn son to dote on, Molly-Mae and Tommy are entering a whole new chapter as a family of four.
