Molly-Mae Hague has revealed a painful health issue for the first time, discussing it during a skiing trip to France.
The 24-year-old influencer enjoyed a swanky trip to hit the slopes in Courchevel alongside her boxer fiancé Tommy Fury, also 24, their 14-month-old daughter Bambi and some pals.
She’s also shared some stunning snaps from their holiday on Instagram, decked out in designer skiing gear – including Celine ski goggles – but she’s now said that her enjoyment of the holiday was impacted by a health condition.
The Love Island star explained that she had been in severe discomfort whenever she put on her ski boots and skis due to having ‘collapsed arches’.
While seated on a button lift taking her up to lunch at the chalet, Molly shared: ‘The only really frustrating thing about my skiing is that because I have collapsed arches in my feet… I’ve got completely flat feet, I’m talking slabs of meat, there is not an arch at any point of my foot whatsoever.’
She continued: ‘I find that my feet hurt so much when I ski because of my collapsed arches.
‘I don’t know what it is, but next time I come away I am definitely going to get some ski boots made for my feet because, honestly, I feel like I would ski so much better if I wasn’t in so much pain.’
According to the NHS, having flat feet or ‘fallen arches’ is common, generally isn’t a sign of something serious and won’t cause any problems or stop you from doing any activities, including sports.
However, it can cause pain around your ankle or aching in the sole and arch of your foot, with shoes likely wearing out more quickly.
Painkillers, stretches and exercise, and special insoles in shoes to help support your feet can help, as well as wearing wide, comfortable shoes with a low heel.
Molly shared in the vlog that she and Tommy are hoping to make their group skiing holiday an annual trip, although she was open to looking at other locations.
‘I did think Courchevel was beautiful but there wasn’t anything that blew me away to justify the price of it, because it is astronomical – probably one of the most expensive places I’ve been to.’
She also recently confirmed that she and Tommy are looking to leave their luxurious mansion despite having spent £4,000,000 on the sale and another huge amount refurbishing it.
The couple moved into their multi-million pound Cheshire home — which features six bedrooms, a gym and massive garden — just two years ago.
But in a recent Instagram Q&A, Molly confirmed they are considering a move to pastures anew.
Responding to a fan question which asked ‘is moving house on the cards?’ Molly responded: ‘One word… potentially.’
Molly didn’t offer any details or what has made them ‘potentially’ consider a move from the place they’ve called home since before their daughter was born.
The couple moved to the mansion in March 2022 after a devastating burglary at their Manchester apartment earlier in the year.
A gang broke in and made off with £800k worth of designer goods while the pair were at a party in London, leading them to hire extra security.
