Paris Fury has spoken out about the pressures of social media on young people, revealing she will not allow her eldest daughter, Venezuela, or any of her other daughters to undergo cosmetic procedures like lip fillers or nose jobs. The 36-year-old wife of heavyweight boxer Tyson Fury made the comments on The Netmums Podcast, where she discussed the unrealistic beauty standards promoted online.
Fury, who has seven children with Tyson, said she constantly reminds Venezuela, 16, that she does not need filters or surgery. 'You don’t need a filter, baby. You don’t need it,' she told hosts Louise Burke and JB Gill. 'When young kids are looking at this false image all the time, everyone has these big lips on the filters, and everyone has the perfect face and the perfect nose.'
She added that if Venezuela asked to change her appearance, she would refuse: 'I’ll reinstall that. [I won’t] be like, “Let’s get lip filler, let’s get you a nose job”. It’s your job to try and build up confidence instead of fixing the problem.'
Fury also revealed that her eight-year-old daughter has expressed insecurity about having hairy arms, which she dismissed as normal. 'Baby hair, everybody has that. It’s normal, it’s nothing wrong,' she said.
The mother-of-seven previously told the Mirror that she wants to instil in Venezuela that 'a bit of lipstick and touch of blusher' is enough for her wedding day, after the teenager got engaged at her 16th birthday party. Fury herself has vowed never to go under the knife for cosmetic reasons, recalling a promise she made in her 20s after a medical operation. 'I’m not even 40 yet, I don’t need it and I don’t want it,' she said.
