MOLLY-MAE Hague and Tommy Fury have revealed a very strict parenting rule they have for their daughter Bambi, and it’s related to screen-time.
The couple, who recently welcomed son Midas, have laid down the law when it comes to technology – but do you agree?
Molly-Mae and Tommy have limited three-year-old Bambi to only using screens and technology during long car drives or when travelling abroad.
Boxer Tommy says this decision was made in a bid for the toddler to have a childhood like he did – spent in the outdoors.
He explained: “Speaking for myself and my own children, the only time Bambi sees a screen is during a long flight or a long car journey, when I might put something on for her.
“Other than that, she’s outside in the garden, playing in the sunshine, jumping in puddles and going to the park.
“I try to keep things as normal as possible. I really want Bambi to have a childhood like I did, and my childhood didn’t consist of screens, apps and things like that. I really don’t want that for my children.”
It’s a far cry from Tommy and Molly-Mae’s lifestyles, with the latter boasting a whopping 8.7 million followers on Instagram and often sharing videos to YouTube.
But it’s not the first time they have shared their desire for Bambi, and now Midas, to have a “normal” upbringing.
In fact, Tommy previously declared that he was “banning” Bambi from 5-star hotels and lavish flights so that she got a taste of normal life, and even purchased a campervan for traditional family holidays in the UK.
Doubling down, Tommy assured that while they may have a flashy lifestyle, Bambi won’t be getting her hands on a mobile phone of her own any time soon.
“Having a phone is a massive responsibility.
“There’s a whole new world behind a phone screen, and I think children should fully understand what they’re doing before they get involved with things like that,” he said.
Tommy was talking in a Q&A for his new podcast series, What The Fury?!.
The ten-part video podcast will see the boxer with his dad, John Fury, as they discuss modern life and their differing opinions.
Watch What the Fury?! is on BBC iPlayer, BBC Sport YouTube or available to listen on BBC Sounds from Tuesday 14th July.
