Exclusive: Paris Fury reveals her fear of sons boxing like their dad Tyson
WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury and wife Paris share six children and are expecting their seventh
yson Fury’s wife Paris has spoken exclusively to HELLO! about her home life with the WBC heavyweight champion and their six children.
Paris, 33, who wed ‘Gypsy King’ Tyson in November 2008 at St Peter-In-Chains Roman Catholic Church in Doncaster, stars with her family in the TV series At Home with the Furys and is expecting her seventh child.
The couple’s six children are named: Venezuela, Prince, Tyson, Valencia, Adonis and Athena.
Asked how she would feel if one of her children wanted to pursue a career in boxing like their famous father, Paris told HELLO!: “Venezuela is now 13 years old. So I’ve tried to say, ‘What do you want to do, what do you want?’
“And she is a typical teenager. She doesn’t know what she wants. She doesn’t know where she wants to go, and she doesn’t know what she wants to do. And she’s kind of rebellious with it, which is a wonderful feeling for us! That’s what we’re getting.”
Paris continued: “But I told her ‘You can do anything, you can be anything, don’t block yourself off and if you don’t want to do anything that’s fine but you give yourself the options’ -and it’s the same with all the kids and my young boys, some of them like boxing.
“My oldest daughter, she thought she was going to be a boxer until she was about six and she got one good punch on the nose and that was the end of that. And some of the boys seem to like it.”
