Watch awkward moment Tommy Fury is hammered with questions about cheating on Molly-Mae by This Morning’s Ben Shephard
TOMMY Fury was pelted with questions about cheating on Molly-Mae Hague in his first TV interview since their split.
The shamed boxer, 25, and Molly-Mae split in August after five years together, and share a daughter.
Tommy appeared on the ITV daytime show to discuss his new book Lightening Strikes Twice and was faced with accusations he had been unfaithful to his Love Island star ex.
Presenter Ben Shephard didn’t let him off the hook and fired out questions, asking Tommy: “It has been a turbulent few months for you, Tommy. How are you feeling after everything you have been through in the summe?”
Looking relaxed on the sofa opposite Ben and his co-host Cat Deeley, the TV star said: “I’m feeling ok I’m feeling good.
“It doesn’t take a genius to figure out it has been hard for me and it has been very hard times.
“But at the end of the day I have been knuckling down so training, taking me daughter to ballet, swimming, and whatever else. So I’ve been keeping myself busy. And of course the book, you know, I’m very excited to launch that today. It’s going to be an amazing day.”
Ben carried on: “You have been very public with it all since Molly-Mae’s statement.
“Everything has played out on social media. How have you dealt with critics?”
Tommy replied: “Yeah, no of course there has been a lot of critics, everyone will jump on the bandwagon when there’s a bandwagon to jump on.
“I’m going to let us deal with that in private, for respect out of Molly
Ben continued to press Tommy for answers, and pointed out: “There are claims you cheated.”
“I’m going to leave that for me and Molly to work through,” Tommy said.
“In the book I have spoke about it because I felt free to speak.”
Asked if was still in love with Molly, he said: “They’ll be my family until the day I die.”
