Molly-Mae Hague is just three weeks away from full-term with her second pregnancy, but Tommy Fury's mind is seemingly on other matters.
In fact, the boxer still plans to go head-to-head with Eddie Hall, the former world's strongest man, on 13 June - a day after his fiancé is due to give birth.
Nicknamed 'Beauty vs. The Beast', seemingly poking fun at ex-Love Island star Tommy's chiselled 'gym-bro' aesthetic, the match will take place at the AO Arena in Manchester, England, and broadcast live on DAZN.
Molly-Mae confirmed following a scan on 26 February, however, that she was 24 weeks and 6 days pregnant, which would make her due date 12 June.

She also shared a vlog this week discussing the realities of being a working mum at 37 weeks pregnant.
Recalling her recent attendance at Tommy's niece Venezuela Fury's wedding yesterday (27 May), the Insta-sensation admitted she wasn't sure she'd attend in her current condition.
"We had Venezuela’s wedding two days ago now, it was touch and go whether we were going to go," she said, also taking the opportunity to discuss the backlash she received for wearing a black jumpsuit and slicking her hair into a bun.
"I got severely humbled in the comments, which to be fair, I don’t know why I didn’t expect because the whole time I was saying to myself, if I do go and I haven’t given birth by then, I was like 'I don’t care what I look like'."
Ahead of the fight, fans of the big-name couple have raised concerns for Molly-Mae, who claimed she was 'traumatised' when Tommy climbed back into the ring just days after they welcomed Bambi.
Speaking in a YouTube vlog at the time, the influencer claimed watching Tommy take a beating from American social media star Jake Paul less than a week after giving birth sent 'shivers down her spine'.
Though the fight ended in a split decision victory in favour of Tommy, Molly-Mae recalled feeling lonely after giving birth.
"The day Bambi was born was the best day of my entire life, but on that day I knew that our journey as a family hadn't started yet because Tommy had to go away again," Molly-Mae confessed. "Tommy was like gone. I knew we weren't going to be a family until the fight was done, and he got back.
"We had four weeks of that until he was going to be home. The first four weeks of Bambi's life, I really did do by myself, and I was home alone with her."
Discussing the impact the fight had at the time, she added: "I pushed a lot of people away, I don't know why. It sounds dramatic, and it sounds intense, but I guess I do have a little bit of trauma from the first few weeks.
"Traumatised is a really strong word, but I am slightly when I look back at the first few weeks of when she came home."
Apparently, Molly-Mae's family are also 'unhappy' over Tommy's willingness to fight Hall so soon after she's set to go into labour.
An insider told The Mail: "It's unforgivable that both times Tommy has made himself unavailable for the newborn trenches and left Molly to deal on her own. They're not skint.
"It's not like a regular couple where the man might not have much choice but to work."
