Love Island alumni Molly-Mae Hague has given fans an update following an operation.

The reality TV personality has been battling endometriosis and documenting it via her YouTube channel, with the star recently undergoing an operation to help the condition. It's been a tough process and has left a scar on her stomach, which she gave fans a look at.

Proudly showing off the scar on her November 18 YouTube video (at five minutes 23 seconds in) while modelling some gym gear, Molly said: "My stomach is still not fully back to normal following my endometriosis operation.

"I don't know whether you can see but I've got my... that's just like one of the little scars from where they went into my stomach. They obviously went in my belly button as well and lower down, but I don't really think you want to see [that].

"Not that I have to justify why my stomach isn't extra toned today but yes, that is why."

Endometriosis is a condition where tissue similar to the lining in the womb starts growing in other areas, such as the fallopian tubes and ovaries, and can cause tremendous amounts of pain. The cause of it is unknown, but it is said to affect roughly 10 percent of women.

Speaking about her health in October, Molly-Mae said in another YouTube video: "The operation was way, way harder to go through than I thought. My recovery time was quite a bit longer than I had planned and I was just a bit of a mess after that surgery.

"Hopefully I never have to see my doctor's surgery or the hospital that I go to for a long time! Like, please, I don't want to see it!"

Love Island airs on ITV2 and is available via catch up on ITV Hub and BritBox.

Joe Anderton is a freelance news writer and resident Welsh person at Digital Spy, having worked there since 2016. 

In his time he's covered a host of live events, interviewed celebrities big and small and crowbarred a countless amount of great/awful (delete as appropriate) puns into articles. 

A big fan of TV and movies both mainstream and obscure, Joe's main interest is in video gaming. Although particularly a PlayStation gamer, he plays across Xbox, Nintendo and PC/Steam Deck, and likes to keep tabs on many games he's not got the time to play.

Joe currently does not use Twitter, but he only ever used it to tell people to watch the film Help! I'm a Fish (which you really should do).
