Molly-Mae Hague bombarded with abuse as fans claim her 8k giveaway was ‘fixed’

Molly-Mae Hague has been bombarded with abusive messages and endless claims that her 8k Louis Vuitton giveaway was fixed after she announced the winner on Monday.

The former Love Island babe is the subject of much online debate after she offered her 4.8 million Instagram followers the opportunity to nab six different styles of Louis Vuitton bags, as well as an array of expense and sought-after Apple products.

After weeks of anticipation, eager fans were left baffled and disheartened when the reality TV siren took to her Instagram Stories on Monday afternoon to reveal that she and her management had agreed to choose the winner from just 25 names which entered.

Although her giveaway post boasted over three million comments and 1.1 million likes, only 25 names were added to a spreadsheet alongside a number between one and 25 before being selected at random.

Molly-Mae described the selection process as ‘the fairest way’ to choose a winner, but unfortunately, her furious following had other thoughts on the matter.

Unimpressed fans flocked to Twitter and Instagram to accuse the YouTube star of ‘fixing’ her epic competition with many threatening to unfollow Molly-Mae after her ‘ridiculous’ actions.

One furious fan fumed: “I can’t believe she’s done this. Literally over 3 million people entered and she chooses 25 names? Like, just no!”.

“Molly-Mae, could you have made it anymore obvious that you fixed the entire competition? Unfollowing,” another fumed.

“Fair? How is that the fairest way to pick a winner from millions of people? Maybe try scrolling through the comments?” a third angry admirer suggested.

While a fourth added: “If there was ever an excuse to unfollow this girl, it’s this!”.

Responding to the overwhelming amount of criticism, Molly-Mae later took to Instagram to defend her actions.

The blonde bombshell penned: “For people saying that 25 names in a generator isn’t fair. We literally spent all week brainstorming the best way to pick.

“There was no software or app that would allow me to put in two million (I repeat two million) Instagram comments without logging in with my Insta password, which I would never do.

“Let’s just all be happy for the winner please. It’s only a light-hearted giveaway.

“The 25 names had all entered more than once… including the winner.

“Let’s be happy for her! She deserves it!”.

Although she’s been bombarded with an eye-watering amount of hate today, Molly-Mae has also been supported by her adoring admirers who took to social media to back up her selection process when it came to choosing a winner.

“What else could she have done? She said there was no software! Leave her alone!” tweeted one fan.

While others gushed over the reality TV star’s generosity and kindness.

Molly has since took to Twitter to tell her fans to keep their eyes peeled for another giveaway which she’s set to announce sooner rather than later.

Mirror Online have contacted Molly-Mae’s representatives for comment.
