Paris Fury, wife of heavyweight boxing champion Tyson Fury, has broken her silence in an emotional defence of her daughter Venezuela's engagement, following a wave of social media criticism directed at the teenage couple.
Mother's Protective Instinct
In an exclusive revelation, the 34-year-old mother of seven addressed the controversy surrounding her 13-year-old daughter's engagement to 22-year-old Billy, delivering a powerful message about family loyalty and personal choice.
"When it comes to my children, I will always stand up and protect them," Paris declared, her maternal instincts shining through. "The online comments have been hurtful, but what matters most is our family's happiness and values."
Family First Approach
The Fury matriarch emphasised that despite public perception, family remains at the heart of all their decisions. "We're a traditional travelling family, and we believe in supporting our children's choices while guiding them with love and wisdom," she explained.
Paris revealed that the young couple's relationship has the full support of both families, who have known each other for years within their close-knit community.
Addressing the Age Gap Concerns
While acknowledging the significant age difference between the teenagers, Paris was quick to point out that "in our culture, these relationships are built to last, with marriage as the ultimate goal from the beginning."
She stressed that the engagement represents a commitment to a future together rather than an immediate wedding, with both families ensuring the couple takes things slowly and responsibly.
A Mother's Wisdom
The Gypsy King's wife shared her perspective on modern relationships versus traditional values, noting that "in today's world, people often jump from partner to partner without any real commitment. We believe in doing things properly, with family blessing and long-term intention."
Paris concluded with a heartfelt message to critics: "Instead of judging from the outside, perhaps people should look at the love and stability within our family. We only want what's best for our children, just like any parent."
