Tyson Fury and Paris Fury’s family has been a subject of fascination for fans for many years, with the couple sharing a large number of children.
In September last year, the Gypsy King, 35 – who was defeated by Oleksandr Usyk in a fight for the ages in May 2024 – became a dad once again when Paris, 33, gave birth to a baby boy.
After keeping his name a secret, the couple finally shared that their youngest son is called Prince Rico Paris Fury.
The pair’s children featured prominently in the family’s recent Netflix show At Home With The Furys which lays the champion boxer bare, discussing the highs of his career as well as his battles with mental health.
We see them get up to all manner of chaos, from celebrating birthdays to shaving their own hair and clashing with their parents.
But how many children do the couple share, and what are their names? Here’s everything you need to know about the Fury family.

Valencia Amber was born in 2017, with Prince Adonic Amaziah following in 2019 and their youngest child, Athena, arriving in 2021.

In his documentary, Tyson explained his and Paris’ decision
to give each of their sons the moniker ‘Prince’ saying: ‘I’m a king and they’re
princes until they earn their rightful name.’
Paris has previously revealed that Tyson would like as many as 10 children, and he’s edging closer to that number with the pair revealing they were expecting a seventh child back in March 2023.
Tyson and Paris confirmed they had welcomed their youngest child in September.
‘We’re over the moon to have welcomed our baby boy to the Fury family,’ Paris shared in OK! Magazine.

‘His brothers and sisters can’t wait to meet him and create lots of Fury fun! Our boy is the most perfect addition and we’re bursting with love for him.
‘It’s crazy how you can love someone so quick.’
In an interview with OK! Magazine, Paris revealed that the youngster’s name was actually partly a tribute to Tyson’s late cousin.

Explaining their choice, Paris said: ‘All of my kids have got unusual names and obviously it’s also really personal to Tyson.’
And the newborn is already keeping his parents on their toes, with Paris praising daughter Venezuela for being a huge help.

Paris is known for her guest appearances on Loose Women, and for starring alongside her family on ITV’s documentary Tyson Fury: The Gypsy King as well as their new Netflix show.
At Home With The Furys shows an intimate portrait of Tyson’s marriage to Paris and their life with their kids.
The height difference between the pair is over a foot – Tyson is 6ft 9ins while Paris is 5ft 8ins.
Paris was born on December 5, 1989 – making her 34 years old.
How old is Tyson Fury?
Tyson is one year older than his wife and was born on August 12 1988, making him 35 years old.
In August last year, Paris showed off the extravagant festivities she’d put on for Tyson’s birthday, including a huge balloon display and blown up photographs of the couple together.
A video also showed Tyson receiving gifts from his family, and exclaiming while eating his breakfast: ‘It’s my birthday! Look at all of these birthday things.’

Tyson met Paris when she was only 15, although they didn’t start dating until after being re-introduced by a friend a year later after Paris’ 16th birthday.
The couple got married in Doncaster in 2008.
During an episode of Tyson Fury: The Gypsy King, Tyson reflected on his relationship with Paris saying: ‘We were bestest best friends in the whole wide world and then we ended up marrying each other.
‘When I was in hospital, she was there. When I was ill, she was there and I owe her everything.

‘I owe her my life and say anything should happen [to me], I’d
just give everything to Paris. Without Paris and these kids in my life then my
life ain’t worth having anyway.’
Talking about her husband, Paris also said in the documentary: ‘I’ve always loved Tyson. We’ve always been together and every year he changes.’
How tall is Tyson Fury?
It’s been said that Tyson measures at 6ft9.
Despite his towering height putting him at an advantage over his opponents, Oleksandr still managed to walk away with the win after a split decision in Saudi Arabia in May 2024.
Is Tyson Fury retired?
Tyson did retire in the past – but as is apparent from his latest bout, he isn’t anymore.

In April 2022, the athlete announced his retirement from boxing, saying in a statement after defeating Dillian Whyte at Wembley: ‘You know I promised my lovely wife Paris of 14 years that after the Wilder three fight that would be it and I meant it. It was a great trilogy but I meant that.
‘I got offered to fight at Wembley at home and I believe I owed it to the fans and every person in the UK to fight at Wembley. I think this is it this might be the final curtain for The Gypsy King. What a way to go out.’
Retirement didn’t last long for the Gypsy King, as he ended up making a U-Turn on his deicision.
