Molly-Mae Hague has shared her struggles as a new mum in a new video, fighting back tears as recalls a tough moment with Bambi just two weeks after she was born.
The Love Island star welcomed her first child with fiancé Tommy Fury in January, four years after falling in love with the professional boxer on the fifth series of the ITV reality dating show.
Molly, 24, has been refreshingly candid about pregnancy and motherhood since giving birth, regularly sharing updates about her life as a young parent with her 7.7m Instagram followers. The glamourous influencer gets particularly honest in a recent YouTube video, in which she includes a clip of her struggling to comfort a crying newborn Bambi.
Molly-Mae shared a clip of her trying to stop Bambi from crying (MollyMae/Youtube)"I actually came across this video which literally nearly made me cry," she admitted. "I've never felt more transported than how I did than when I was watching that clip a few moments ago. I suddenly felt all the emotions." She then shares the short footage, which shows Molly attempting to soothe a wailing Bambi in the plush living room of her £4m Cheshire mansion.
"I was home alone with Bambi, she was only a couple of weeks old. She was screaming crying. She had colic," the influencer recalls. "I was trying to start vlogging again. I was really trying to rush myself back I was desperate to not fall off."

Molly, who recently stepped back from her role as the creative director of Pretty Little Thing, goes on to explain that she wasn't in a healthy mental space during this time. "I don't think I was even in the room, I don't think I was processing what was going on," she admits.
Molly-Mae reveals that Bambi was suffering from colic in the video (MollyMae/Youtube)"I wasn't sure if I was ever going to feel happy again," she continues. "I found motherhood a lot harder than I thought I would. I want to tell any other mums out there...and you're finding it really hard...I promise you, it gets so much easier." Elsewhere in the video, Molly reveals that she and Tommy are open to moving after recently revealing their current house is not their "Forever Home."
"We view this as being a maximum 10 year stay for us," she explains. "We're not looking to move, but there has been discussions. We want to keep making investments. And property is an incredible investment...Potentially we'd rent this house out." She then adds that she fears a potential tenant living in the home, before joking she'd nominate Tommy to 'fight' anyone who dared to 'mistreat' it. "If someone was to come along and offer us the right price for our house, would we consider selling it? 100%," she added.
