Paris and Tyson’s Journey Together
A fateful meeting at a mutual friend’s wedding drew 15-year-old Paris and 17-year-old Tyson together. While Paris and her family thought Tyson was far too old for her, the Manchester-born boxer didn’t relent in his pursuit and proved to her family that he was suitable for her. Having met in 2005, Paris and Tyson started dating near Christmas. However, it wasn’t long before their relationship progressed into something more.

Paris and Tyson got married in 2008 when they were only 19 and 21. Since then, the couple has welcomed six children and built a life together. However, their story hasn’t been a bed of roses. After claiming all four world title belts in 2015, Tyson was warped into a concerning state where issues with his mental health led him to abuse drugs and drink alcohol, which led to significant weight gain. The issues had progressed to the point that Tyson deliberated self-harm and suicide. The duo also opened up about the time Tyson drove his Ferrari off the road at high speed and told Paris that he’d never return.
The couple’s relationship had strained to the point where Paris considered leaving Tyson altogether. Even during their time on ‘At Home With The Furys,’ the couple can be seen battling several issues. Despite Tyson’s steadfast resolve to keep his mental health in check, the heavyweight boxer faced a hard time with several issues. Naturally, Paris also felt an increasing divide in their communication. As such, many wonder if the couple has been able to brave through these issues over time.
