Molly-Mae Hague says "nothing can burst" her post-‘Love Island’ bubble, despite receiving vile "death threats".
The 20-year-old star and her beau Tommy Fury, also 20, were runners up on the ITV2 dating show this summer, and she has shrugged off speculation she is having therapy due to online trolls since leaving the villa.
She told OK! Online: "I’ve been having the same [post-‘Love Island’] after-care as everyone else. I’ve taken the support that ITV provided and it’s helped.
"People keep sending messages like, ‘Pray for Molly-Mae, I hope she’s OK,’ but I’m literally sat here loving my life. I’m so happy, nothing can burst my bubble; what the public think is irrelevant."
Despite Molly-Mae’s defiant stance, she admitted is was "hard to hear" some of the cruel comments being sent her way.
The social media influencer added: "I knew I was going to get my fair share of hate but I didn’t know it would be to this extent.
"To be called fake and all these horrible names like ‘Money-Mae’ when I haven’t actually done anything wrong was a shock. It is hard to hear.
"I did [read the negative comments] at the start but then I had to stop; I think it’s best not to. Some of the stuff that’s been said about me is pretty vile. There are death threats, which really isn’t nice."
The romantic pair recently said their love for each other means more than not being crowned winners of the reality show after new couple Amber Gill and Greg O’Shea emerged victorious.
Molly-Mae insisted: "You’re not in there for that, honestly. People need to realise that’s not even in your mind when you’re in that villa.
"You’re not thinking about the final, you’re not thinking about winning. It’s not even in your head.
"You’re just thinking in the moment, making friends, making memories – I know it sounds cringey but it really is."
