MOLLY-MAE Hague has admitted she's been left "deflated" and even "physically hurt" by daughter Bambi's latest behaviour.

And in a video on her social media, Molly-Mae, 26, revealed that she's been torn as to what approach to adopt in terms of dealing with Bambi's naughtiness.
Some people have suggested ignoring the misbehaving, telling Molly-Mae that she's "doing it for attention" and a "reaction", adding that Bambi will stop if her actions don't get the response she wants.
But Molly-Mae argued: "But then if my child is literally physically hurting me... if she scratches my face, I can't just look around the room and pretend like nothing's happened!"
So then she wondered if she needs to instead tell Bambi that it's "not okay" and "we say no".
"I don't know if there's a repercussion, like she has to sit in her cot for a minute or she needs to have a time out or we start introducing the naughty step," Molly said.
"So I don't know."
"Anyway, that's why I'm feeling a little bit deflated this morning because obviously it's just not nice," Molly-Mae added.
"I am so big on raising her to be like a really kind, gentle human being that would like never ever do anything like that.

"And like I just, I've never ever like... I just don't know where she's picked up that behaviour from."
Molly-Mae also revealed her mum had struggled to witness Bambi's behaviour when she came to visit.
"My mum like literally left here to go back home in floods of tears because she was just so upset and confused as to why Bambi was just lashing out," she sighed.
"She's just being a toddler, like she's literally being a toddler, but obviously like my mum doesn't really get to see her much.
"And also my mum just loves her like as we all do like just adores her and it's just obviously really like sad and confusing."
She added that while she'd had a good few days with Bambi, who doesn't seem to lash out when it's just her and her mum, she "had a feeling" that the tot "may still do it".
"I don't think it's over basically," she sighed.
Celebrity PR Expert, Ed Hopkins told Fabulous: “I believe Molly-Mae Hague's new look is more than just a style change but a powerful statement of who she is becoming.
“It underscores her journey towards authenticity, maturity, and sophistication and is likely to enhance her success and influence in the years to come.”
Brand and Culture Expert Nick Ede agreed, and told Fabulous: “Molly-Mae has transformed herself into a yummy mummy who has ditched the glamour model style for a more relaxed and natural look.
“She’s becoming more down to earth and relatable to people and cleverly showing a softer side which will win her legions more fans in the process.”
According to Ed Hopkins, Molly-Mae’s chic new look could be “highly lucrative” for the star.
Ed told Fabulous: “Molly-Mae Hague's transformation towards a more natural, chic look seems to be a testament to her personal growth and evolving style.
“This change, which has become more pronounced since she became a mother, appears to reflect her journey towards embracing authenticity and sophistication.
“It's possible that this new image could be highly lucrative for Molly-Mae.
“Her chic, understated style might appeal to a wider audience, including more mature demographics and high-end brands, potentially opening up lucrative endorsement deals and partnerships.
“By adopting a more elegant look, she seems to align herself with premium and luxury brands that favour natural beauty and sophistication, which could lead to higher-paying collaborations.
“Additionally, with consumers increasingly valuing authenticity and natural beauty, her new image could be both timely and marketable.”
Nick Ede agreed and told Fabulous: “She has started to promote some really great luxury brands including the cosmetics brand Tatcha and with her laid back look she will make a lot of money from brands looking to align with her.”
Ed also noted that Molly-Mae’s transformation may be a sign that she is looking to step away from her reality show past.
He continued: “Molly-Mae's transformation also seems to symbolise her desire even more so to well and truly step out of the shadow of her Love Island persona.
“The shift to a more mature and unique style appears to demonstrate her growth and her wish to be seen as an individual beyond her reality TV beginnings.
“By shedding the bold, flashy look associated with her time on Love Island, she might be rebranding herself as a serious businesswoman and influencer who is carving out her own identity.
“This new look helps her stand out in the crowded influencer market, showcasing her as a trendsetter with a distinctive, refined aesthetic.”
Nick agreed and claimed: “Shedding the flash looks she previously went for, she's also detaching herself from the Love Island stereotype and stepping out as her own person with a cool look that’s not flashy but totally on trend.
“Gone are the 'look at me' posts and in are family style posts and trend led fashion statements.”
A video of Molly-Mae talking about Bambi's behaviour was shared on TikTok, with people taking to the comments section to weigh in.
"I’ve got 3 beautiful boys all in their 30s who have all turned out beautifully and believe me I didn’t tolerate any of this nonsense!!!" one wrote.
"What’s going on with the youth of today?"
"You're in charge, tell her no," another urged.
"Tell her no!" a third agreed.
"If she does it again say no that hurts mummy and straight away distract her."
"You say no with the meaning NO so you have to change your tone of voice," someone else advised.
"It has to be with a scary tone."
"She has this gentle name Bambi but she really is Fury through and through," another wrote, referring to the little girl's boxing champion dad Tommy Fury, and uncle Tyson.
Golden Bachelor Mel Owens slammed for saving woman who admitted she’s on the show to be ‘an influencer’ and NOT for love
GOLDEN Bachelor Mel Owens slammed for saving contestant Nicolle Kate after she confessed that making a connection with him wasn’t her goal while on the show.
The yoga instructor received a rose on Wednesday night’s episode, despite complaints from the other ladies over the real reason she joined the competition.
Mel, 66, is now down to six contestants after an emotional ceremony that had an unexpected outcome.
Fans’ jaws dropped when Nicolle, 64, was the last woman to receive a rose after her true intentions came to light throughout the episode.
Earlier, viewers watched Nicolle get candid with her co-stars about her motives, saying her goal was to become “an influencer” and grow her social media following, rather than finding love.
The Florida native shared her plan to post more content focused on clean eating and nutrition and use her Golden Bachelor fame to her advantage.

She also slammed the first season’s Golden Bachelor contestants, claiming that those competing for Mel’s heart were a much better-looking group.
Nicolle continued her honesty train later, revealing she initially wanted to boost her name in the health and nutrition industry, but pivoted to the reality TV scene, with hopes that would give her the recognition she’s vying for.
FAIR WARNING
Several of the ladies caught on to Nicolle’s apparent ulterior motives, particularly Robin Rocha, 63, who attempted to warn Mel that not everyone was being their “authentic” selves.
Although she didn’t refer to anyone by name, Mel brushed off the claim and couldn’t fathom that any of the ladies weren’t being genuine.
However, Nicolle further showed that, for her, it might’ve been more about the game than the relationship with Mel when she later gifted the former NFL star homemade lemon bars made by several of the ladies and passed them off as solely her own.
Mel admitted in a confessional interview that he had a strong attraction to Nicolle and was eager to see how things developed between the pair.
But the other contestants repeatedly side-eyed Nicolle, as they worried Mel wouldn’t see past her fasad and choose her over them.
That’s precisely what ended up happening for some of the women in the end, including Robin, who, despite her best efforts to alert Mel about Nicolle’s antics, was sent home.
‘GOLDEN HOUSEWIVES’
Fans were shocked by Mel’s decision and expressed their frustrations online.
“Robin absolutely should have spilled the tea on Noelle,” one person wrote on X.
“Nicolle makes me want to vomit!” complained another.
“Nicolle is kind of a rotten person,” said a third.
“Is this chick trying to create a Golden Housewives?” someone else added about Nicolle’s apparent hunger for fame.
“She just called last year’s cast dogs….,” a fifth pointed out.
Nicolle has made it clear she’s in the game to win, as just two weeks ago, cameras captured the blonde beauty half-naked with Mel in the pool.

The duo shared an intimate moment while the other ladies vying for the football star’s heart looked on.
Many thought it was a bold move, and it caused one of the women, Cindy, to break down in tears over the blatant PDA.
