On January 13, boxing superstar Tyson Fury announced that he would be returning to the ring in 2026, a year after retiring from the sport. The news was greeted with much fanfare among his supporters. However, his wife Paris’s reaction was different.
Fury, 37, who is set to face Russian Arslanbek Makhmudov on April 11, told British tabloid The Daily Mail that his partner refused to speak to him after he announced he was coming out of retirement for the fifth time. “My dad stopped speaking to me for a while. My brothers stopped speaking to me, even Paris.
Everybody cut me off. Nobody wanted me to return and they made that clear. But, it’s my decision and my life. It’s probably a bit selfish, [but] it’s just… I’m at my happiest when I’m in that ring entertaining people and I have no plans to stop any time soon. I’ll probably keep fighting till I’m 50,” said Fury, who has won 34 of his 37 bouts.
Fury and Paris 20 years ago, while in their teens and got married in 2008.
