Tommy Fury has hailed his partner Molly-Mae Hague after he was seen revealing the name of their newborn son during his victorious return to the boxing ring over the weekend.
The former Love Island star, 27, revealed their son’s name, Midas, which was spelt out on the back of his shirt and boxing shorts, during his fight against the former world’s strongest man, Eddie Hall, on Saturday (June 13) night.
Tommy and Molly-Mae, also 27, welcomed their second child into the world earlier this month, three years after the arrival of their first child, daughter Bambi, with Molly-Mae seen attending the fight at Manchester’s AO Arena.

Tommy, who secured a majority decision victory against Hall said: “This was for my new baby boy, Midas. It is another Fury, it’s another boy. I’ve fought a lot of people, and this guy can fight. He’s not slow, he’s fit. Thank you for taking the fight and thank you for a great night in Manchester.”
He’s since taken to social media to pay tribute to Molly-Mae, after their son’s arrival came during his strict training camp regime. Alongside pictures from his triumphant return to the ring, Tommy wrote on Instagram: “Still undefeated. Huge respect to Eddie. You surprised me, pushed me and gave me a challenge. Thank you for accepting the fight and sharing the ring with me, it was a pleasure.

“This one is for my newborn son Midas [heart emoji]. And thank you to Molly for holding down the fort with our two beautiful children whilst I was preparing.” He added on Sunday (June 14) evening: “Thank you everyone who turned out last night, events like this wouldn’t be possible without you all. Now it’s time for some much-needed family time.”
Molly-Mae and Tommy, who met on Love Island back in 2019, confirmed the safe arrival of their new bundle of joy in a joint Instagram post on June 3. They shared a black and white snap in which the new mum could still be seen in her hospital gown as she sat in her hospital bed.
She and Tommy, who was standing by her side, could be seen looking down at their new arrival with smiles as Bambi sat opposite her mum and sweetly tended to her new sibling. While they didn’t reveal the gender or name of their new addition at the time, Molly-Mae captioned the sweet post: “….and then there were 4,” alongside a white love heart emoji.
It was days later that the pair confirmed they are now proud parents to a son, sharing the news alongside a sweet video of Bambi meeting her baby brother for the first time.
