Paris Fury has spoken out after her husbandTyson revealed he hasn’t said ‘one word’ to her in three months.
The mother-of-seven, 35, took to Instagram on Wednesday to share a clip of Tyson, 36, revealing the extraordinary measures he has taken ahead of his next fight.
The boxer, who has been married to Paris for 16years, revealed he had cut contact with his family completely over the past three months while he has been in training camp ahead of his match with Oleksandr Usyk.
Paris wrote: ‘People don’t see the sacrifices made I’ve let him solely concentrate on this fight. It seems like he’s been gone forever especially with no contact but if it’s what he needs.’
Tyson said of his plans after the fight to Dev Sahni: ‘I’ll be flying home for Christmas plenty of eggnog and mince pies and turkeys and all. I can’t wait for Christmas.
‘I wish [the fight] was tonight. It’s been a long camp being away from your wife and kids in three months. I’ve not spoken to Paris three months, not one word.’

Fans took to the comment section, surprised Tyson has cut contact with Paris and asked: ‘Why wouldn’t you speak to your wife and kids? I don’t get that at all.’
Others wrote: ‘This isn’t inspiring, instead this is just sad. He’s abandoned his family for months. He could at least pick up the phone. Poor Paris.#
‘What’s the logic in not talking to your wife at least on the phone or video chat? How does this help his training?’
‘I don’t care who you are or what you’re up to, there is no excuse to not speak TO YOUR WIFE for 3 whole months. Just unnecessary in this day and age. He can spare 5min to do a televised interview yet can’t spare 20 seconds to text Paris?? Pfffft. Not worth it.’
Tyson and Paris have seven children together after welcoming Prince Rico to the clan back in September last year.
The couple have three daughters and four sons, welcoming their eldest child and first daughter, Venezuela Fury, in 2009.
Prince John James followed in 2011, with their brother Prince Tyson Fury II arriving in 2016.
Usyk became the first undisputed heavyweight world champion of the four-belt era by stripping Fury of his WBC title during their first bout in May

Valencia Amber was born in 2017, with Prince Adonic Amaziah following in 2019 and Athena, arriving in 2021.
Tyson’s extreme measures show just how seriously he’s taking his rematch with Usyk, the man who handed him his first professional defeat and stripped him of the WBC heavyweight title.
After months of intense training and a complete mental reset, he insists he’s more focused and driven than ever. However, he claims he will maintain the same style of fighting.
‘I need to be more focused this time and not do as much showboating,’ he said. ‘One of the commentators said: ‘Has anybody ever seen Tyson Fury clown this much against even lower level opposition?’ That’s how easy it was for me and you can get complacent.’
However, he went on to add: ‘I won’t change anything. Why would I when I had control of the fight for maybe 80 per cent of it? I’m landing on him at will, head and body, lead right uppercuts, left hooks, right hooks to the body, doubles at times.
‘I don’t need to change anything. I don’t think he can, either, because he ain’t going to outbox me on the back foot. He has to come forward and make a fight of it.’
