Love Island star Molly-Mae Hague has announced she is stepping down from her role as creative director at PrettyLittleThing (PLT).
The social media creator revealed the news to her 1.8 million subscribers in her latest “Drive with me Q&A” YouTube video.
The 24-year-old is currently in a relationship with boxer Tommy Fury who she met on the ITV2 summer dating show in 2019, and the pair recently welcomed their first child named Bambi at the beginning of the year.
Why has Molly-Mae Hague stepped down as PrettyLittleThing creative director?
She began the video on her YouTube channel, which she often uses to post family vlogs, as she headed to a Starbucks drive-thru to grab an iced vanilla latte and some snacks.
The former reality TV contestant said: “There is actually one quite big thing that I probably should talk about, I haven’t posted anything about it yet but I’m probably going to post something about it around the time this video goes live."
Molly-Mae went on to say she will "forever have the most insane relationship" with her "family" at PLT which she began in 2021.
She added: "I am still working with them and doing collections and edits, but I have actually decided to step down as my creative director role.
"Over the last few weeks, I definitely realised that I'm only going to get this time once with my first-born child and I'm only going to get Bambi being four months old once and yeah I feel like I've had to rearrange my life a little bit and lose some commitments that I did have."
She spoke about how she "loved being the creative director of PLT more than anything" but the role had “naturally come to an end.”
“There is no drama, there is absolutely no tea, there is nothing that’s gone on. I’m just so grateful for PLT for giving me the opportunity in the first place. It was the most incredibly pinch me moment,” Molly-Mae explained.
She continued: "I am a mum now and I never really gave myself a maternity leave and I got straight back into work instantly because my work is my phone and showing my life is my work.
"The last thing I would want to be is in a role that I can't fulfil right this moment."
