Molly-Mae Hague reveals horrific illness lasted FOUR days after being taken down by sickness bug in Mexico

LOVE Island star Molly-Mae Hague has opened up about the horrific illness that sidelined her for four days.

The 22-year-old, who was struck down with a mystery sickness bug on a work trip in Tulum, Mexico, leaving her feeling "nauseous" and throwing up at her luxury resort.

The influencer first developed a case of stomach pain early on in her trip - but revealed it was a false alarm.

She told fans on her latest YouTube vlog: "Myself, Fran and a few of the other girls have got what's starting to feel like a little bit of a bad stomach.

"Which was my worst fear and I literally think if I do get a bad stomach I would have brought it on myself because all I've been saying since I've been out here is 'I don't want to eat this, I don't want to eat that because I don't want to get a bad stomach' but I think I've jinxed myself. Maybe I'll be alright to be fair.

"Like I said to you guys at the start, I don't have a sensitive stomach.

"I've not been physically sick since I was a child, like six-years-old - I don't really get sick like that...I definitely haven't been drinking enough water."

The following morning Molly-Mae told fans that she was relieved that she was feeling better - after initially panicking that she had a severe case of food poisioning.

But she did reveal that she's not been to the toilet in four days - admitting that things get "sensitive" in that area when she's abroad.

She then extended her holiday for a few days and said her best pal Stephanie Lam had joined her so they pair could explore the Tulum after her PLT shoot.

However, the pair were struck down by the sickness bug - leaving them sprinting to the toilets to throw up.

"I am gutted as I had planned to vlog for the last couple of days....but then Mexico had other plans for us," she explained.

"I did end up getting very sick, me and Steph both got a case of...I don't know what it was. Just a bug, a bad sickness bug.

"It hit Steph first, basically we were taking content and Steph kept complaining that she didn't feel well. She was taking some pictures for me and then she said we have to go.

"We sprinted back to her room and got into the hotel room and the rest is history."

The reality star said she started developing symptoms shortly after and was left in a bad way towards the end of her trip.

"And just before we were about to leave, my bug started and I started to feel really nauseous and I was actually nauseous for 48 hours before I actually threw up," she added.

"It's been really intense and I've been really poorly ever since. I think this is day three being home and I'm not feeling the finest."

Molly has spent more than a week in Mexico shooting a campaign for her fake tan brand, Filter By Molly-Mae.

She's been soaking up the sun in style at a swanky £500-a-night hotel iat the Casa Malca resort in Tulum.

The Love Island star was snapped during her holiday while wearing £92,000-worth of jewellery on ONE arm.

She also lounged by the pool with an exclusive fashion house Prada bag that comes with an eye-watering price tag of £2,500.

Molly stayed at the five-star Casa Malca - the hotel claims to have "spectacular" views of either the sea or gardens and guests can choose to stay in one of 71 suites directly on the beach.

The accommodation is decorated with huge and unique pieces of expensive artwork.

The Casa Malca also has a 'Calma Spa', which is located on the hotel's rooftop and has stunning views looking across the Caribbean ocean.
