Molly-Mae Hague has addressed online criticism after her outfit choice for Venezuela Fury’s wedding drew negative comments from trolls. The former Love Island star attended the ceremony earlier this month on the Isle of Man with her daughter Bambi and wore a black jumpsuit, which prompted some social media users to question whether the colour was appropriate for a wedding.
In a new YouTube video posted on Tuesday, May 26, Hague responded directly to what she described as “humbling comments” about her appearance. She questioned the backlash, asking, “Since when is it not acceptable to wear black to a wedding?” Hague explained that her focus that day was not on fashion, but on attending the event to support the family and to accompany Bambi, who had been asked to serve as a bridesmaid.
The influencer and entrepreneur, who is heavily pregnant, said the outfit decision was made with practicality in mind. She noted that she was close to her due date and was prioritising comfort and attending the wedding rather than spending time worrying about her look. “There was not one part of me that thought about what I was going to look like,” she said, making clear that her attendance was centred on being present for the occasion.
Hague’s response comes as public figures increasingly face scrutiny over personal style choices, especially during high-profile events shared on social media. Her comments suggest frustration with the criticism, particularly given the circumstances of her pregnancy and the fact that she attended the wedding because her daughter had been included in the bridal party.
The wedding itself took place on the Isle of Man earlier this month and involved the family of boxer Tyson Fury. Hague’s presence at the event, along with Bambi, drew attention from followers online, but the reaction to her black outfit became the main talking point after images circulated. While black is often associated with mourning in some cultures and can be seen as unconventional wedding attire, it is also a common formalwear choice in many modern settings.
By addressing the issue publicly, Hague appeared to dismiss the backlash and emphasise that her intentions were harmless. Her comments highlight the gap between online judgment and personal circumstances, particularly for celebrities whose every appearance can become a topic of debate. The incident has added to the ongoing conversation around body image, maternity, and expectations placed on women in the public eye.
For Hague, the wedding attendance was a family moment rather than a style statement. Her reply to critics reinforced that she was there to support Bambi and take part in the occasion, not to make a fashion impression.
