Molly-Mae Hague opens up after criticism of the outfit she chose to wear to Venezuela Fury’s wedding which took place on May 16th.
The Love Island star wore a sheer black ensemble with floral appliqué detailing to the wedding, keeping her makeup minimal and her hair in a slicked-back bun.
The entrepreneur, who was 37 weeks pregnant at the time, received nasty comments relating to her outfit choice and now she’s spoken out about it.
Molly-Mae received harsh criticism
Molly saw it as Bambi’s big day and said she didn’t feel the need to go all out because she was merely acting as a ‘chaperone’ for her daughter.
Speaking in a new YouTube video, she said: ‘I was what can only be described as Bambi’s chaperone for the wedding. There was not one part of me that thought about what I was going to look like.’
Molly, who is 39 weeks pregnant now, admitted she didn’t realise it was frowned upon to wear black to a wedding.
‘Since when was it not acceptable to wear black to a wedding? Because I never thought that, I didn’t know you couldn’t wear black to a wedding. It’s more of a, I don’t want to say a funeral colour..,’ she said.
‘We had Venezuela’s wedding, it was touch and go whether we’d be able to go. I got severely humbled in the comments, which, to be fair, I don’t know why I didn’t expect.
‘If I do go, if we get to go, and I haven’t given birth. Baby seems pretty cosy! But I didn’t care what I looked like, Bambi had been asked to be a bridesmaid, and I really wanted to honour that and obviously be there for the family and just show up.’
‘Obviously, if you can, that’s what you’re going to do. I actually did put a bit of thought into it. I did get that jumpsuit tailored and everything. But the hair… I had my hair done in the morning, and I had this really gorgeous bun. But I ended up taking it out and slicking my own bun back in.’
Molly was taken aback by the negative reaction to her outfit, telling her fans: ‘I had a bit of a spiral this morning, I don’t know why I didn’t think about the pictures and videos coming out. Because in my head I was just thinking about the wedding and it’s their day, it’s about them.’
She added: ‘I’m so so glad that we went, it was such a nice day. I don’t think Bambi will ever get over it. I think she thought she was in a dream.
‘That is her dream: the dresses and her hair and being with her cousins all day. Having the best time.’
