Paris Fury breaks her silence on husband Tyson’s feud with his dad John after he declared their relationship is ‘destroyed completely’

Paris Fury has publicly addressed the strained relationship between her husband, Tyson, and his father, John, following John’s claim that they are no longer close.

The mother of seven spoke about the disagreement between her son and his father, suggesting they were both very stubborn and unwilling to compromise.

Tyson and his father stopped speaking after Tyson announced he was returning to heavyweight boxing to fight Arslanbek Makhmudov, a fight he won earlier this month.

Paris shared on Jamie Laing’s podcast, ‘In Good Company,’ that Tyson Fury and his father appear to be going through a difficult time with each other right now.

She explained that their relationship has been unstable for years, with a recurring pattern of breaking up and getting back together. She added that both people involved are strong-willed and often clash.

‘One probably more headstrong than the other.’

Considering the drama leading up to Tyson’s fight, many fans wondered if it was all a planned publicity move to generate excitement.

Hitting back, Paris said: ‘Everyone’s saying it is a social media stunt and it’s not.

There’s a disagreement happening within the family right now, and I really hope they can work things out. Family is the most important thing, in my opinion.

Despite a strong underlying love, they’re facing difficulties, possibly due to pride or issues with his father.

‘And I hope they can resolve it.’ 

Tyson recently explained the reason for his long-running disagreement with his father: his father wanted him to stop boxing after his victory over Deontay Wilder in 2020.

I’ve always admired how Tyson handles things. He always told everyone he’s his own man, and he truly lives by that. He knew his dad had his own opinions about people in their training camp, but Tyson always did things his own way, and he stuck to that principle, no matter what.

He feels he’s earned this opportunity, believing he’s always made his own decisions and lived with the consequences.

His father often criticized past decisions, but things actually turned out remarkably well.

‘He said don’t fight Deontay Wilder. It’s the best trilogy in boxing history.’

John told the Daily Mail earlier this month: ‘My relationship with Tyson is destroyed’.

He went on, reminding everyone, ‘Remember who shaped his life growing up. He didn’t do it alone, did he? It was me, his father.’

I was really struck by something Paris shared during her interview with Jamie Laing. She admitted she sometimes has really difficult thoughts, specifically about not living a long life. It was so brave of her to open up about something so personal, and it definitely resonated with me.

She admitted she’d always worried about becoming seriously ill and dying at a young age. She described it as a strange and unsettling thought.

Paris revealed that she considered ending her relationship with Tyson as he struggled with his mental health, including a suicide attempt.

There were moments when I felt overwhelmed and didn’t want to face the challenges. But I remembered my commitment to support through both good times and bad, in sickness and in health.

You know, people always ask me about commitment and what really makes a relationship last. When Jamie recently questioned if her vows were what held things together, I thought about my own experience with Tyson. Honestly, it wasn’t just about the promises we made. It was simply this: I loved him. Saying it out loud feels a little embarrassing, even now, but it’s the truth. I love my husband, and that’s what mattered most.

Paris also praised Tyson for speaking about his battles and raising awareness of the silent killer.

She excitedly explained that he’s really helped many men by openly discussing his struggles with addiction and other challenges.

As someone who cares deeply about mental health, I often think about how easy it is to focus solely on the person who’s struggling. We see their pain, their depression, or anxiety, and naturally want to help them. But it’s so important to remember that their struggles don’t happen in a vacuum. Their pain ripples outwards, affecting everyone around them – family, friends, even acquaintances. It’s like a butterfly effect; one small change can have huge consequences for so many people, and we need to acknowledge that impact too.
