SHE might be worth £6million, but Molly-Mae’s career hasn’t always been as glamorous as it is today.
Although the Love Island star turned businesswoman, 25, is raking in the cash thanks to her influencer opportunities, it turns out she once started out scrubbing public toilets.
Not only this, but the Maebe founder, who recently got emotional as she spoke after her first festive season as a single mother, and has her new series hitting Prime Video this week, also made endless cups of tea while working at a hairdressers.
In a short clip shared online, the blonde beauty, who we will see on our screens on 17th for the first three episodes of Molly-Mae: Behind It All, opened up on her first and worst jobs.
The influencer, who recently found herself at the heart of BBL rumours and broke up with boxer Tommy Fury, the father of her daughter, back in August, shared: “Hi, I’m Molly-Mae and this is my first, worst, best and last.”
Whilst her first Maebe drop sold out in just 24 minutes, the content creator, who has 1.9million subscribers on YouTube, didn’t start off in retail like many.
In fact, she was washing strangers’ hair, as she confessed: “My first job was working in a hairdressers, making cups of tea and washing hair.”
And whilst the Filter founder lives in a huge £3.5million mansion and lives a pretty luxurious lifestyle, her life before Love Island in 2019, hasn’t always been so fabulous.
The mum-of-one, who previously admitted she ‘didn’t enjoy’ Bambi’s baby-days, worked at Hitchin Swimming Centre, in Hertfordshire, when she was 16.
She admitted: “My worst job was probably when I was a lifeguard and I had to clean public toilets and scrape other people’s hair out of drains.”
But the Filter founder now spends her days working on her fake tan brand and her new luxury fashion range, as she beamed: “I’d say my best job is the one that I have right now.”
Not only this, but the star, who not long ago broke down in tears and reflected on her recent ‘emotional rollercoaster’ then confirmed: “My last job was filming my documentary, Molly-Mae: Behind It All on Prime Video and it was an unbelievable experience.”

The TikTok clip, which was posted on the official @primevideouk account, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly gone viral and racked up 2.1 million views in just 22 hours.
Molly-Mae’s fans quickly flocked to the comments, eager to praise the star.
[quote credit=”TikTok user “]England’s sweetheart. Love her[/quote]One person said: “When can I watch this in the UK? Been wanting to watch it.”
Another added: “The excitement is REAL.”
A third commented: “She deserves the world.”
Whilst someone else chimed in: “A lifeguard I wasn’t expecting that, what an amazing woman Molly-Mae is, so amazing! So glad she went on Love Island!”
Not only this, but another fan beamed: “England’s sweetheart. Love her.”
Molly-Mae’s Prime series
Both Molly-Mae and Tommy will appear in her new show which drops on Prime Video this week.
A TV insider said: “The timing of them getting back together couldn’t be more convenient, as it will see their romance come full circle with fans watching on through the documentary.
“There was already huge interest in the programme, even before the events of the past week. But now there’s likely to be even more people watching.
“The trailer seemed to suggest there will be lots of detail about the stress Molly went through during their high-profile break up, but there was no hint of them getting back together.
“Which means the creators of the documentary – which is still being filmed – were either taken by surprise by the reunion or have had to keep it top secret for some time.”
