He may not often feature on the influencers social media or fan favourite YouTube vlogs. 

However Molly-Mae Hague’s dad Stephen has been a pillar of support for the star after she rocketed to fame at just 20-years-old following her appearance on Love Island in 2019. 

Stephen features in the reality star’s new six-part series with Prime Video, Behind It All, as he confesses in the trailer: ‘She’s just a normal girl, she just has the world’s eyes on her.’ 

After a career as a police officer, which Molly’s mum Debbie also worked as, Stephen now has his own dog walking business in Chester.

During her appearance on The Diary Of A CEO podcast, Molly-Mae voiced her pride for her parents’ careers, even as a child.

She explained: ‘Both parents were in the police, so that was interesting growing up. [That’s] something else that I’m really proud of actually, having two parents that are police officers because I quite liked it at school; being known as the police officers’ kid.’

Meet Molly-Mae’s lookalike dad Stephen Hague: Ex-police officer and star’s rock who got into ‘verbal fights’ when people were cruel about her insecurity

Her parents divorced when she was 14-years-old, and Molly has admitted the separation left her ‘heartbroken’ because her ‘greatest fear had come true’.

Since then Stephen has gone on to find love again with his wife Carla, with the pair celebrating their six year anniversary last August.   

Despite her parents’ divorce, Molly and Stephen have a close relationship, and he is incredibly supportive of his youngest daughter. 

He admitted he used to get into ‘verbal fights’ with people who would pick on Molly as a child and had to stop himself ‘chinning a few’. 

Molly was born with a prominent strawberry birthmark in the middle of her forehead, and speaking about it in her book Becoming Molly-Mae Stephen wrote: ‘As dad to two daughters, I felt it was unfair for a girl to have the birthmark in such a prominent location.

‘I used to get into verbal fights with people who said rude things about it when they saw it and only because I was a copper did I stop myself “chinning” a few.

‘Her birthmark gave her an adorable quality. A lot of people stood up for her and protected her from cruel remarks.’

Molly has previously expressed her graтιтude towards her doting dad as she thanked him for ‘always having a solution to my problems’ in a sweet Father’s Day tribute back in 2020.

The Love Island star shared an image of herself hugging her youthful-looking parent at the airport, after they coincidentally bumped into each other in between transit flights. 

The YouTuber wrote: ‘Happy Father’s Day to my number one supporter. I’d be lost without you. You always have a solution to every single one of my problems. I love you. 

‘That time both of our flights had the same stop off airport and we bumped into eacH๏τher.’ (sic) 

The media personality also sweetly shared thoughts to her followers without fathers, writing: ‘Thinking of those who have to get through today without their dads. It absolutely breaks my heart to even think about it.

‘I have so many close friends and people in my life who have lost their dads, and I admire them so much. You are all so, so strong. (sic)’

Meanwhile Stephen also showed his support for his daughter amid her shock split from her fiancé Tommy Fury. 

The pair split in August with speculation whirling that the boxer, 25, had cheated on the star. 

And showing his support Stephen rushed over to Molly’s £4million Cheshire mansion with flowers and later unfollowed Tommy on Instagram.

Retaliating, Tommy took a brutal swipe at Molly’s father as he also unfollowed the ex police officer. 

In recent years, Molly has admitted that she isn’t a big fan of Christmas, saying she thinks her apathy towards the holiday was likely rooted in her parents’ divorce.

Fans will have to tune in to Molly’s upcoming documentary on Friday to see if she opens up about her split from Tommy, or uses her tactic to ‘say a lot, without saying anything at all’

Speaking to her fans about her lack of festive spirit, Molly-Mae explained: ‘Sadly, I do think it kind of stems from my parents being divorced.

‘It’s a little different when your family isn’t all together. I know this is the case for so many people. Christmas always brings up such mixed memories for me.’

However, despite the divorce, Stephen and Debbie often will still spend Christmas together with their daughters Molly and Zoe. 

In Molly’s Christmas Eve vlog, the star chatted with her mum and Zoe as she explained: ‘Our divorced parents are coming together on Christmas day with their new partners.’ 

Debbie added: ‘We’ve done that before, we are the modern blended family with all the exes and the Y’s!’ 

In the teaser for the upcoming documentary, which airs on Friday Molly-Mae is followed by cameras in the aftermath of their split.

Fans will have to tune in to see if Molly-Mae opens up about her split from Tommy, or uses her tactic to ‘say a lot, without saying anything at all’.

In the trailer, Molly reveals the depth of her heartbreak to her mother, admitting: ‘I am angry at him, and I am very hurt…’ before she’s filmed hugging daughter Bambi, 23 months, and saying: ‘I feel like sometimes it just really hits you that I’m in this alone now.’

However, the star has now been hit with accusations the pair’s split was a publicity stunt as rumours continue to swirl that the pair are back together. 

It comes after Tommy finally detailed the reasons why he and Molly split in August, saying it was because he had become dependent on alcohol following a boxing injury.

Amid rumours that their August 2024 break-up was a publicity stunt, Tommy spoke candidly about his mental-health battle and insisted he has never cheated on Molly-Mae – calling rumours about other women ‘complete and utter b***ocks ‘

On Wednesday, Tommy, 25, gave an emotional interview with Men’s Health, where he revealed his own drinking problem for the first time and admitted his mental health was ‘in the pan’

Molly faced a backlash from fans after she and ex-fiancé Tommy were filmed sharing a pᴀssionate kiss on New Year’s Eve ahead of the launch of her three-part Prime Video series, with doubters claiming their breakup was staged.

But Molly has opened up on the ‘turmoil’ of enduring their separation on a public scale, saying the demise of their five-year romance was ‘very, very real.’

She has admitted the couple are now working through their problems following Tommy’s shock confession that he became ‘addicted to alcohol.’

Molly said her biggest ‘frustration’ was having their August breakup questioned by skeptics when there was a lot more happening behind the scenes.
