Molly-Mae 'Ready to Stop at Two' as She Shares Reason for Name Midas

Molly-Mae Hague said the name came from a boxing robot in Real Steel and that Tommy Fury immediately loved it.

  • In a recent YouTube video, Molly-Mae Hague revealed she and partner Tommy Fury named their newborn son Midas, welcoming the baby earlier this month three years after their daughter Bambi's arrival.
  • Clarifying the name's origin, Hague said it was not necessarily derived from King Midas but instead inspired by the 2011 film Real Steel, where she heard the name years ago and thought it was 'a really cool strong name.'
  • Tommy 'absolutely fell in love' with the name when Hague mentioned it to him, and the couple publicly shared it on June 13 during his victory against Eddie Hall at Manchester's Arena.
  • Addressing fan speculation in her 29-minute vlog, Hague explained the name was not chosen for links to the 'Meidas Touch,' noting that while friends struggled with pronunciation, she found it straightforward.
  • The couple confirmed the birth in a joint Instagram post on June 3, captioned '....and then there were 4,' with Hague expressing gratitude that her healthy baby arrived safely.
