She's not yet had a chance to cause a stir in the Love Island villa, but it looks like bombshell Molly-Mae Hague could be about to turn some heads, with viewers choosing boxer Tommy Fury to go on a date with her at the end of last night's (Thursday 6th June) show.

However, it's now emerged that before Molly-Mae entered the villa, she once dated a very famous footballer, in the form of Leicester City and England player James Maddison.

According to reports, the 20-year-old social media influencer dated James earlier in 2019, and she often has footballers sliding into her DMs looking for dates.

Speaking before she flew to over to Palma, Molly-Mae said, "All the dates I’ve been on have been guys from Instagram. A few footballers have slid into my DMs. I’ve dated footballers, it’s all just superficial and on the surface. And then you get to know them and they’re just a bang average ‘Jack the Lad’."

Meanwhile, Molly-Mae made her entrance into the villa on last night's show, heading straight up to The Hideaway for a date with Tommy, following a public vote. However, if today's 'first look' is anything to go by it looks like Molly-Mae isn't putting all her eggs in one basket, choosing Curtis Pritchard for her second date.
