Paris and Tyson Fury both delighted and surprised this week when they revealed they were expanding their brood. Boxer Tyson took to his Instagram Story to reveal the news after he saw his fight with Oleksandr Usyk collapse.
Posting a photo of himself and his wife, he said: "I get to do date night with my beautiful pregnant wife Paris, God is great. 7th baby incoming." Alluding to his disappointing fight news, the heavyweight champion then added: "Fantastic news to cheer me up."
It wasn't until later that Paris shared the news herself, posting her husband's Instagram Story snap to her main grid. "Baby NO 7 on the way God willing," she wrote to her one million followers.
New mum Molly-Mae Hague, who is the partner of Tyson's half-brother Tommy Fury, was among the first to respond, writing in the comments: "What a blessing. So happy for you both!" Christine McGuinness also commented: "Congratulations beautiful." Charlotte Dawson, who is pregnant with her second child, wrote: "Congrats babe." While Hollyoaks actor Ashely Taylor Dawson added: "WOW! Now that is different level! Nothing but love and respect!"
But the joyous announcement comes weeks after Paris responded to claims she was expecting again. In a snap posted to Instagram, the mum-of-six looked super-glam as she posed with Tyson, with whom she shares children Venezuela, 14, Prince John James 10, Prince Tyson Fury II, five, Valencia Amber, four, Prince Adonis Amaziah, three, and one-year-old Athena.
Paris completed her chic look with red heels and a gold chain strap bag, and alongside her Tyson beamed a huge smile in a floral shirt and dark blue jeans. As the world heavyweight champion boxer placed a hand on his wife's stomach in the picture, Paris was quick to shut down talk that she was expecting in the caption.
"Had a great Christmas and some lovely family filled days. (PS Tysons hand is just there don’t start rumours)," she typed. mrs_mallon replied: "I did think another baba was en route." mansfieldtracey wrote: "Soon as I saw Tysons hand I thought ‘mmm is that a sign‘ then read your caption."
miss_pretty_little_home_said: "His hand is there out of habit but for a second I thought (baby emoji) then read the caption." And 2bmdru1 said with laughter emojis: "You know us too well." sarahjmartin6 replied: "Did wonder … happy new year to you all." And oosweetspotgrloo said: "Immediately thought oh another one's on the way!"
Paris gave birth to their sixth child, daughter Athena, in August 2022. The precious newborn was blue-lighted to Alder Hey Hospital after her heart rate was worryingly fast at over 300 beats a minute.
As they were preparing to bring Athena out of intensive care, her daughter stopped breating and became non-responsive, Paris, 34, told the Loose Women in her first interview after the birth. "I screamed for the nurses, they ripped her out of my arms and started resus," she told the panel.
Paris then revealed how she called her husband, who was running around the grounds of the hospital at the time because he had thought their daughter was out of the woods and had a fight to prepare for as the Wythenshawe fighter, nicknamed the Gypsy King, was in training for his showdown with Deontay Wilder at the time. The frantic couple spent two weeks by Athena's side at Alder Hey in Liverpool until she was allowed home.
