They have made the decision to separate after five years together, during which time they had a daughter, Bambi.
Despite Molly-Mae only sharing a statement about the situation today, followers are convinced that she knew earlier as she alluded to being a solo parent.
In a frank vlog on her YouTube channel, the mum said: "I, to be honest with you, have been not feeling… like, I mean this week has just been a lot of emotions."

Explaining that her fiancé, Tommy Fury, has been wrapped up recording his audiobook, Molly added that she wanted to be understanding as her own audiobook recording was "the most intense week of her entire life".
"He's done it now, and I'm so proud of him, because I know that was a really big deal to him, but I have been solo parenting pretty much the entire week," she said.
"Actually I've been solo parenting for like, two weeks now, basically because Tommy's just been so busy.
"When he's home from doing work and stuff, he's so incredible and so helpful. I can't say any different, like, he's such an incredible dad, but I have been this week, like, just really… mum life has been mum lifeing."

'Molly and Tommy appeared to be picture perfect, their break-up was completely unexpected'

GASPS of horror echoed around our desks as Molly Mae revealed she had split from Tommy.
The break up, after five years, was completely unexpected.
In recent months, the pair had faced rumours he had a roving eye after he was spotted partying with women - all while Molly-Mae was at home holding their baby.
Her statement smacks of something that has yet to come to light.
Although she’s written it with a clever PR eye watching over it, Molly’s devastation spills out in every word.
As I type, my WhatsApp groups are flashing up with texts about how this seemingly rock solid couple have crumbled into nothing.
Just three weeks ago, Molly posted a video of the moment Tommy proposed – after he pulled an elaborate stunt which ended up with him getting down on one knee.
The pair’s relationship, complete with Love Island fan-favourite Ellie Bellie and, later, the arrival of their daughter Bambi, appeared to outsiders to be picture perfect.
Molly has built her brand around her wholesome family life with Tommy.
Cosy photographs are carefully curated for her Instagram grid, with her 7.9million followers poring over her every word as they attempt to emulate her life.
In truth, Molly is one of the only Love Islanders I, along with a number of my friends, follow on social media for her girl next door vibe and stylish fashion picks.
Celebrity breakups are often ten a penny, but there is something shocking about the ending of what, on the surface, appeared to be such a happy relationship.
Earlier this year, at Soccer Aid, Tommy was cagey when asked about their upcoming wedding plans by one of my colleagues.
It wasn’t altogether too strange, as most blokes aren’t overly keen to chat about their missus when they're with their mates playing football.
But it was a definite gear change from the Tommy many of us have interviewed over the years, as he was always so gushing about his bride-to-be.
Thousands of Molly-Mae’s fans, and no doubt a number of Instagram and Tattle Life sleuths, will now be combing the internet and social media for clues.
And given the number of calls coming into our desk, I have no doubt that the real reason Molly-Mae ended things with Tommy will come to light in the next few hours.
As a genuine fan and follower, I really hope she is being supported by the people who love her most.
Break ups suck at the best of times. But when you’re in the public eye, and you choose to announce your split so suddenly – and clearly without mutual consent – they are a hell of a lot harder.
