On Wednesday, Tommy was forced to defend himself after critics accused him of flouting coronavirus travel rules by failing to wear a mask while on a train.

The Love Island star shared a video of himself travelling in First Class from London to Manchester after visiting the Capital for work.

In the clip, Tommy appeared to be travelling in an empty carriage, but the operator – Avanti West Coast – stated travellers must wear face coverings unless exempt.

The reality personality shared the post of himself relaxing onboard alongside the caption: ‘Full carriage to myself.’

A spokesman for the boxer, who was hosting coverage for BT Sport last weekend, said Tommy only removed his mask to have a drink of water. 

They told The Sun: ‘This story was taken while Tommy had his mask off to drink water and I am sure you saw his other story which showed a completely empty carriage (he was the only person in it).

‘Tommy has posted many pictures over the last few months of him wearing a mask.It was taken out of context. I can appreciate the confusion.’

MailOnline contacted Tommy’s representative for comment at the time.

An Avanti West Coast spokesperson said: ‘In line with government guidance, you must wear a face covering (unless you are exempt) when you’re at a station and whilst onboard a train.

‘Some people may not be able to wear a face covering such as young children, people with specific medical reasons, those with breathing difficulties or whose disabilities make it difficult for them to wear a face covering.’

Government guidelines also says that it is a legal requirement to cover your face with a mask while travelling on public transport.
