Molly-Mae Hague and Tommy Fury have finally unveiled the name of their newborn son — and the announcement came in a touching way during Tommy’s highly anticipated clash with Eddie Hall in Manchester.
The couple welcomed their second child earlier this month, with Molly-Mae giving birth in a luxury Portland maternity suite said to offer packages costing up to £30,000.
As Tommy made his entrance to the ring on Saturday night, fans noticed a special detail on his boxing gear. Emblazoned across his outfit was the name of his baby boy, confirming that he and Molly-Mae have named their son Midas.
Less than two weeks after giving birth, Molly-Mae was at Manchester’s AO Arena to support Tommy, looking glamorous in a white dress as she watched him take on former World’s Strongest Man Eddie Hall.
Hints about the baby’s name had already emerged when Molly-Mae’s interior designer recently shared a glimpse inside the newborn’s space-themed nursery, complete with an enormous moon-shaped light hanging from the ceiling.
In an earlier vlog, Molly-Mae teased fans by revealing that the name was “hard to pronounce” and admitting it wasn’t quite as unusual as daughter Bambi’s name. She also explained that she only knew one other child with the same name.
Molly had previously hinted that the baby’s name might be revealed through Tommy’s fight gear. Speaking before the bout, she said: “I’m thinking do I put the name of baby number two on his fight shorts? Because he always has Bambi’s name on his fight shorts, and I don’t want to leave the second baby off.”
She added: “Maybe that’s how we announce the name is on his fight shorts. That would actually be quite cool.”
Since the birth of daughter Bambi, Tommy has frequently honoured his children on his boxing attire, making the reveal especially meaningful.
Fans had spent weeks trying to guess the name, with theories ranging from Miffy and Bunny to Dream, Cloud and Dusk. One popular theory came after Bambi was spotted wearing a T-shirt featuring Miffy, the beloved rabbit character created by Dutch author Dick Bruna.
Molly-Mae has also been candid about how different motherhood feels the second time around. Having previously admitted she found the newborn stage with Bambi overwhelming and “unbelievably difficult”, she recently shared how much calmer and happier she feels after welcoming baby Midas.
Alongside a photo of her son, she wrote: “Thank you for healing so many of my newborn fears little one.”
She continued: “The peace and happiness I feel this time around is something I wished for but didn’t know would come.”
And reflecting on the contrast with her experience after Bambi’s birth, she added: “The difference compared to this stage with Bambi is indescribable.”
Molly-Mae also revealed that she and Tommy had discovered they were expecting a boy at the beginning of the pregnancy. Sharing footage of Tommy bursting a balloon filled with blue confetti, she wrote: “Just the luckiest.”
She later admitted: “Nearly 9 months on from finding out we’d been blessed with a boy… and I still can’t believe it.”
The couple recently melted fans’ hearts by sharing a touching video showing Tommy bringing daughter Bambi to the hospital to meet her little brother for the first time.
As Molly-Mae asked, “Do you like him?” the toddler sweetly replied: “Yes.” The proud mother captioned the moment: “There’s your little brother.”
Meanwhile, Tommy was reportedly left heartbroken after having to return to training camp in Manchester less than 24 hours after the birth, leaving his young family behind ahead of his showdown with Eddie Hall.
