Tommy Fury is showering his fiancée, Molly-Mae Hague, with praise as the new mother of two returns to the gym just weeks after giving birth to their son. The boxer expressed his admiration for the influencer's dedication to her fitness routine in a heartwarming social media post, calling her his "best workout partner."
The couple, both 27, welcomed their second child, a baby boy named Midas Thomas, earlier this month, expanding their family to four alongside their daughter Bambi, three. Fury shared a loved-up selfie and a photo of Hague in her workout attire on his Instagram Story, revealing his pride in her swift return to physical activity. He wrote, "So proud of my girl, after giving birth nearly four weeks ago she's already back smashing in the gym," and affectionately referred to her as the "best workout partner".
Hague’s return to training comes amid ongoing public interest in the couple's family life, which they regularly share with millions of social media followers. The influencer has been open about her postpartum experiences, both with Bambi and now with her newborn son, creating a relatable narrative for many new mothers in her audience. Her latest YouTube vlog offered a more personal look into her recovery and mindset, including the meaningful story behind her son's distinctive name.
The couple revealed their son's unique moniker in an equally unique manner. Fury first debuted the name "Midas" on his fight shorts during his return to the boxing ring against Eddie Hall in Manchester on June 13. Following his victory, he dedicated the fight to his new baby boy. While many fans initially speculated that the name was a reference to the mythical King Midas, known for his ability to turn everything to gold, Hague has since clarified its true origin.
In a recent vlog, the influencer explained that the name was inspired by the 2011 robot boxing film Real Steel, a movie she and Fury love. She shared, "We have named our son Midas. His middle name is Thomas, and his surname is Fury... We had this name for a boy for quite a few years". This personal revelation added a deeper layer to the choice, explaining the non-traditional name they had settled on.
Health experts emphasize that postpartum fitness journeys are highly individual and should be approached with caution. According to the UK's National Health Service (NHS), mothers who have had a straightforward birth can begin gentle exercises, like walking, stretching, and pelvic floor exercises, as soon as they feel comfortable. The NHS also advises that any mother considering high-impact exercise should wait for her six-week postnatal check before starting an intense regimen. Recovery time can be significantly longer for those who had a cesarean section or a more complicated delivery.
While Hague is actively working on her fitness, she has also reflected on the emotional aspects of her postpartum journey. In her vlog, she opened up about her mental state after the birth of Midas compared to when she had her daughter, Bambi. She shared that she believes she may have experienced postpartum depression after the birth of her first child, stating she "really struggled" and felt "so out of her depth". This time around, she described feeling like a "completely different version of myself," noting that she is coping much better and is appreciating the newborn phase.
The couple, who met on the fifth season of Love Island in 2019, remain one of the UK's most-watched celebrity pairings. Their journey from reality TV contestants to parents of two continues to captivate audiences, and Fury’s public display of support highlights his encouragement of his partner's physical and mental recovery. Hague also indicated in her vlog that she believes their family is now complete, suggesting she and Fury are content with their two children.
