Molly-Mae added how deleting the app “has been quite frankly one of the best decisions I ever made”.
The reality star then said how though she has grown a thick skin over the years, “there’s something about that app that just feels like so insanely toxic”.
Molly-Mae then explained how she saw her makeup artist scrolling on social media and spotted “at least three things within that short time of me looking at her phone that I didn’t want to see”.
“So, I just felt like, okay, definitely definitely in no way, shape or form rushing to get the app back anytime soon.
“I just want to say that I’ve also received so many incredibly lovely messages and people saying that they’ve also really enjoyed it.
“And that’s literally all I wanted for the doc. It’s never ever been to do anything other than just create something for people to watch and enjoy.
“And I think I’ve definitely definitely learned a lot,” she added.
Molly-Mae then told of how she was nervous about the documentary coming out.
“Like I think even before the premiere, there’s a bit of me in this vlog where I’m like severely anxious,” she explained.
Molly-Mae then said that she had anticipated some of the critique the documentary got.
“I literally said like ‘that’s going to cause this’ and ‘this is going to cause that’.
“I have been doing this job now for a really really long time and I feel like we kind of had a formula that we followed for years that avoids what has happened with the doc from happening.
“And with this drop of the doc like we literally did the complete opposite of what we normally do.
“Like we spoke about things we don’t speak about.
“We kept things in that probably I would never ever show of myself like because with the last drop of the doc everyone was like we want more. We want more.”
Molly-Mae went on: “So, it’s like you give it, but then it’s not like it’s too much or it’s, you know…
“I saw someone saying that they fell asleep halfway through one of the episodes because it was so boring yet they feel like the episodes aren’t long enough.”
She then said how she “really really can’t keep everyone happy” no matter how much she tries.
