The reality TV star and her boxer boyfriend were left devastated by their pet's sudden death - just days after he arrived from a breeder in Russia.
Mr Chai became a social media sensation prior to his death, quickly achieving 'influencer' status after 150,000 people followed the account set up for him on Instagram.
But after he suddenly fell ill, Molly explained that she and Tommy left him at the vets for treatment.
The couple sadly got the devastating news he had died in a phone call the following morning.
In a heartbreaking video on YouTube, Molly could be seen sobbing as she explained: "The vet rang up and said Chai had a seizure and he died. Tommy literally threw up everywhere.
"I was like: 'It's a prank' as we get prank called all the time and she was like: 'No, your dog has died.'"
The pair later paid for a fast-track autopsy which revealed Chai's skull wasn't fully developed and had left part of his brain exposed.
Breeder Tiffany Puppies, where they purchased the Pomeranian from, later said in a statement on Instagram: "I am getting lots and lots of messages, calls, voicemails, emails from people wanting to know what is happening. And I truly appreciate your concerns.
"Apologies for the lack of communication, however I hope you can understand that Chai’s passing has really affected us massively and we just cannot understand why such a healthy beautiful pup passed so suddenly."
The breeder later claimed that Molly had tried to "lay the blame" on her, for Mr. Chai's premature death.
In response, Molly told The Sun Online: “I have been made aware of a number of social media posts relating to Mr Chai today.
“I cannot comment in detail on these posts as they are being dealt with by my lawyer - but it is fair to say that if they are intended to suggest wrongdoing on my part in relation to Mr Chai’s death, they are entirely false.
“At the appropriate time I will comment further as necessary but for now I am grateful these posts have been removed.”
