Tommy, who shares daughter Bambi, 20 months, with the former Love Islander, has denied any cheating claims and has said he is ‘horrified’ by the ‘false allegations’
According to onlookers, Tommy seemed bright and happy and was interacting with other shoppers, not showing any signs of upset after Molly-Mae ended their five-year relationship following cheating claims.
An onlooker told MailOnline: ‘Tommy was interacting with other shoppers and seemed in good spirits, acknowledging anyone who approached him.
‘You would never have known he was in the midst of a painful break-up.
‘He was stocking up homeware essentials presumably for a new pad but was taking good care of Bambi in the process.
‘It took him an age to put her in his car to safely buckled up, he was being extra careful. His car was so big it took up two spaces but no other shoppers seemed to mind.’
It came after Milla Corfixen, 20, who is at at the centre of the cheating claims against Tommy came forward claiming the pair did share a kiss – and reveal she’s closed her social media account due to intense trolling.
The jewellery assistant, who met Tommy during a booze-fuelled break in Ohrid, North Macedonia, said: ‘I’ve had to delete all my posts due to the hate and nasty comments, as stated in the news story I have gave.
‘I didn’t do anything with Tommy Fury. I didn’t even know who he was we only shared a kiss nothing else happened. And if I’d of known about Molly-Mae I would never have kissed him back.’
On Sunday, Molly-Mae stepped out without her engagement ring as she spent time with a friend and daughter Bambi.

A source told The Sun: ‘Molly-Mae isn’t just worried about it, she’s expecting it.
‘She thinks girls will come forward and claim Tommy cheated with them. She’s devastated.’
MailOnline have contacted Molly-Mae and Tommy’s representatives for a comment.
While Molly-Mae was fearful of more cheating claims, Tommy’s messaging scandal took a shock twist as a woman who accused him of sending her flirty DMs has claimed she was ‘catfished’ by an imposter.
Last week, a woman called Kay Keogh accused Tommy of ‘messaging her after spotting her on a night out in Manchester’ while engaged to Molly-Mae.
At the time, she took to TikTok to share a screenshot of a message from an account which was allegedly Tommy’s, which read: ‘Are you in Manchester?’
However, she’s since returned to the platform to confess she was duped by a fake account and says it wasn’t Tommy who messaged her at all.
Sharing a video, Kay told how she’d received a message from someone who told her that they were behind the messages and not the Love Island star.
She claims to have fell for the messages after being at an event in Manchester with someone who ‘could’ve passed for’ Tommy, adding that she was ‘really confused’.
Speaking in the clip, she says: ‘I obviously got catfished. Someone was basically, definitely tolling me because another fake account has messaged me and they’ve literally said to me “you actually thought that was him? that was me.”

She’s since returned to the platform to confess she was duped by a fake account and says it wasn’t Tommy who messaged her at all.
‘And obviously people are gonna be like “but you said you saw him?” but like I said, I was really confused already. And it was also really weird that I was just in Manchester and we had gone to a private event and there was a group of guys and one of the guys could have passed for being him.’
She continued: ‘Like I said, I don’t even now know what he really looks like. I know he has brown hair and is like really muscly. But yeah this person has messaged me and basically told me they were trolling me.’
Kay added her apparent surprise that people can now ‘buy verifications and change their name’ on social media.
MailOnline contacted representatives of Tommy for comment at the time.
Amid the drama, Molly-Mae has been supported by her friends and loved ones, who have been rallying around her at her £3.5million Cheshire mansion.
It was previously revealed that the social media star had grown tired of Tommy ‘gallivanting around the world while she was looking after their child’.
In recent months Tommy has travelled to Germany, Hungary, Dubai and Macedonia.
Friends of the former couple say the split was a ‘long time coming’ as Molly-Mae grew tired of his lifestyle while she looked after Bambi, The Mirror revealed this month.

A source said: ‘Problems had been growing for a while. Increasingly, it seemed like they were living two very different lifestyles.’
On August 7, just seven days before their split, Molly-Mae posted a YouTube video in which she said she had been ‘struggling’ and ‘solo parenting’ Bambi.
In a candid video posted on social media the Love Island star said she had spent weeks looking after their daughter Bambi on her own while her fiancé was working elsewhere.
In recent weeks friends have revealed the couple had gone through a rocky patch and have been leading increasingly separate lives with cracks showing in their normally tight-knit relationship on social media.
In the clip, Molly-Mae explained Tommy had been predominantly absent from their family home while he was recording his audiobook.
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 lifing.’
She concluded: ‘I just feel like, at the minute I’ve been struggling a little bit.’
Molly and Tommy met on Love Island in 2019 (pictured) and went on to get engaged last year, after welcoming their little girl in January 2023
Tommy’s trips abroad to places such as Abu Dhabi, Saudi Arabia and Hungary for work and pleasure saw Molly-Mae left at home reportedly complaining she ‘doesn’t know where he is going’.
It wasn’t hard to spot him though, with Tommy – who is known to enjoy drinking alcohol, a keen contrast to the mother of his daughter – seen partying with his friends, and sometimes other women, on social media.
In October 2023 he was spotted partying with girls and singer Chris Brown in Abu Dhabi, with the boxer spotted getting close to an attractive brunette. His behaviour reportedly left Molly-Mae ‘mortified’.
