Molly-Mae makes bittersweet admission about newborn baby son and Bambi
Molly-Mae is reflecting on her ‘newborn fears’ after welcoming her second child.
The influencer, 27, and her partner partner Tommy Fury, also 27, announced the baby's birth on 3 June, posting a photo of the family gushing over the new arrival in Molly-Mae's hospital bed at London’s expensive Portland Hospital.
"…. And then there were 4,” the caption said, opting not to disclose the baby’s name or sex right away. The photo was also in black and white, meaning the couple’s followers were unable to look for any giveaway colours as a clue.
The Love Island star later shared an adorable clip showing their three-year-old daughter Bambi meeting her new sibling with the caption: “There’s your little brother.”

Molly-Mae has given fans a couple of updates since giving birth as well as adorable snaps of her family of four since arriving back home.
In a new post shared on Tuesday, the reality TV star posted a picture of Bambi looking through the window at a thunderstorm.
“New born bubble, every day at home with my girl… and the cosiest thunder storm. No one wake me up from this dream,” Molly-Mae wrote.
She also shared a cute picture of her newborn son sleeping on a blanket along with a caption: “Thank you for healing so many of my newborn fears little one.
“The peace and happiness I feel this time around is something I wished for but didn’t know would come.
“The difference compared to this stage with Bambi is describable.”
Molly-Mae has previously spoken candidly online about the trauma she experienced after giving birth to her daughter, Bambi, in January 2023.
In a recent YouTube vlog, she admitted that she is still “haunted” by her first experience of caring for a newborn and wondered whether she might need therapy.
She shared with fans: “I can’t even put it into words. I’ve been acting as though a baby is not coming, and life isn’t going to change. And then when you’re holding up these tiny newborn baby grows, you’re like, ‘I don’t know how to take care of a newborn. I’ve done that before. Have I?’
“Because that stage of my life was quite traumatic, I know it sounds dramatic to say it, [but] I think I’ve blocked a lot of it out, and I’ve been feeling a little bit anxious the last few days because I think I’m about to have that period of life again.
“I’m about to go through the same period of life that I always look back on and think, whoa, that was an era that I’m very happy to forget about, and I’m about to re-enter it, and that is deeply terrifying.
“I think that’s why I’ve been like really putting off really coming to terms with the fact that I’m having a baby. I don’t know. Do I need therapy? Do I need to see a therapist?
“I feel like I’ve been feeling really anxious… I thought by now I’d be feeling different, and that I’d be feeling… I don’t want to say I’m not excited, but I just thought that I’d be having different emotions. Those emotions haven’t arrived yet.
“I’m just stepping into this era of life again that last time, like literally haunts me. And that’s not normal, is it?”
She continued: “Some women absolutely love the newborn stage, and others have an experience like I did where I would never really want to experience it again…
“And I’m about to experience it again, and that is somewhat absolutely terrifying for me.”
