As soon as we set eyes on Love Island 2019 star Tommy Fury, we were pretty much in love.

The boxer, who is the younger brother of Tyson Fury, melted hearts with his caring personality and he was quick to make Molly-Mae Hague his official girlfriend in the villa.

Tommy and Molly-Mae finished second place on Love Island 2019 - after Amber Gill and Greg O'Shea. They quickly moved in together, welcomed their first child and got engaged but in 2024 they split.

So here's everything you need to know about him...

Tyson actually broke the news of Tommy's participation in the show, telling ESPN, 'He's going on a TV show called Love Island.

Are Tommy and Molly-Mae still together?

Sadly, no.

In August 2024, Molly-Mae announced they'd split on Instagram, writing, 'Never in a million years did I think I'd ever have to write this. After five years of being together I never imagined our story would end, especially not this way.

'I am extremely upset to announce that mine and Tommy's relationship has come to an end. I will forever be grateful for the most important thing to me now and always, my beautiful daughter. Without us there would be no her, she will always be my priority.'

She added, 'I want to thank you all for the love you have shown us over the last five years. You have all been a part of our journey and I feel it's right to share this with you all.'

However a few months later, they sparked reunion rumours after they were pictured kissing on NYE and then - after denying all those cheating rumours - Tommy revealed the real reason they split was because of his battle with alcohol.

Are Tommy Fury and Molly-Mae Hague married?

They're not even together, let alone married.

They were engaged before their split though. Tommy had hinted that he'd propose and Molly admitted in a YouTube video that they'd been ring shopping together. Even Maura Higgins was eager for the duo to get married after she hinted about her role in the wedding.

It was in July 2023 when Tommy got down on one knee in Ibiza and proposed.

What happened when Tommy Fury and Molly-Mae Hague were in the villa?

Heading into the villa as bombshells Tommy and Molly instantly hit it off and although they had a few rough patches - Maura, Danny Williams, Anton Danyluk and Lucie Donlan all spring to mind - they managed to make it work.

Later on, Tommy melted the hearts of the nation when he asked the influencer to be his girlfriend, with the help of his BFF Curtis.

Using Molly-Mae's teddy Ellie Belly in the set-up, Tommy said, 'On a serious note, you know how much you mean to me and you're the only girl for me. I only want to be with you. Therefore, I was wondering if you wanted to be my girlfriend?'

As if this wasn't cute enough, Molly-Mae and Tommy then dropped the 'L' word as they were hugging in bed.

After making it to the final, Molly and Tommy enjoyed their final date, a Beauty and the Beast inspired dinner in a VERY romantic setting, leaving Molly extremely emotional.

Where is Tommy Fury from?

Tommy is from Manchester, same as his brother Tyson.

Tommy Fury's mum

It's very well known that Tommy and his mum Chantal are close and viewers (and Tommy) were over the moon when she entered the villa and met Molly.

Tommy even told his fellow Islanders, 'That woman hasn’t got on a plane in 16 years,' but she still flew out to Mallorca.

Are Tommy Fury and Curtis Pritchard still friends?

Before entering the Love Island villa, Tommy was quick to reveal he'd like to find a bromance on the show, something to rival that of 2018 Islanders Kem Cetinay and Chris Hughes.

He said, 'I’ll mingle with people and find out about everyone because at the end of the day I’ll be living with these people for a long time so it’ll be nice to see if I have a bromance in there, along with a relationship. It’s nice to be a bit standout-ish.'

Well, it looked like he found just that... In the form of ballroom dancer Curtis. The lads immediately hit it off, entering the villa as bombshells on the first day.

However following their time on Love Island it appears that they've since drifted despite having their own spin-off show The Boxer & The Ballroom Dancer.

Speaking about his friendship with Tommy, Curtis said, 'If you want the honest honest truth - I haven't spoken to him in ages actually.

'I got a new phone and I lost his number. I have messaged him on Instagram a couple of times but I've been pied off by him.'

He added on his podcast AJ v Curtis, 'I've messaged Tommy and he hasn't replied. We are friends but we haven't spoken in a while.'

Who else has Tommy Fury dated?

Tommy was in a two-year relationship with his ex-girlfriend Millie Roberts, but she has claimed that he split up with her shortly before the villa. She told the Daily Star, 'He swore he wasn’t interested, then a few days later was suggesting he did it and gave me half the money. I said if he thought I was going to watch my man on national TV kissing and doing God knows what with other women then he was crazy.'

There were also reports that he dated Hollyoaks star Chelsee Healey and even Lauren Goodger admitted that she slide into Tommy's DMs.

What has Tommy Fury done since the villa?

After Molly launched a collection with PrettyLittleThing, Tommy also turned his hand to fashion with the launch of his boohooMAN edit.

Asked if he ever thought he'd have his own edit, Tommy told heatworld, 'Seeing as I wear boxers that are one week old and sniff them before I put them on, definitely not; but I'm now considered a fashion man. It's an absolute privilege to be working with boohooMAN and be part of the family.'

So what's his favourite piece from the collection, then?

'It's got to be the shiny red coat,' he said. 'With a nice white tee underneath, you can't go wrong for the winter months. It's practical and fashionable, we're killing two birds with one stone.'

Tommy has also returned to boxing and has fought Jake Paul and KSI.

Has Tommy Fury ever cheated?

He said, 'I’ve had a wandering eye before but I addressed that straight away. I’ve never cheated and I never will cheat. I’m a loyal guy down to the roots.'
