The fairytale wedding of boxing champion Tyson Fury and his childhood sweetheart Paris was anything but peaceful, with explosive revelations now emerging about the chaotic 2008 ceremony that required police intervention.
The Stolen Bentley Incident
In what should have been the happiest day of their lives, the Furys faced immediate drama when their wedding car - a luxury Bentley - was stolen during the reception. The vehicle, hired specifically for their special day, disappeared while guests celebrated inside.
"We came out and it was gone," Paris Fury recalled in her new book. The theft forced the newlyweds to make an unconventional escape in a friend's people carrier, a far cry from the glamorous departure they'd planned.
Violence Erupts at Celebration
The wedding reception descended into chaos when a massive brawl broke out among guests. According to Paris's account, the violence became so severe that authorities had to be called to restore order.
"There was a big fight and the police got called," she revealed, painting a picture of a celebration spiralling out of control despite the couple's hopes for a peaceful event.
Pre-Wedding Tensions
Even before saying "I do," tensions were running high. Paris admitted to experiencing pre-wedding jitters so intense she considered calling off the entire ceremony. The pressure of marrying the rising boxing star created overwhelming anxiety for the young bride.
The ceremony itself took place at Doncaster Register Office, followed by a reception at the more grand Hall Cross Hotel, where the drama would later unfold.
A Rocky Road to Romance
The couple's relationship began when Paris was just 15 and Tyson 17, though her father initially disapproved of the boxer's profession. Their journey to the altar was fraught with challenges, including Tyson's struggle to secure a wedding license after forgetting his passport.
Despite the chaotic beginning, the marriage has endured, with the couple now raising seven children together and standing as one of boxing's most recognised partnerships.
From Chaos to Champion
The wedding day drama proved to be just the beginning of the Furys' rollercoaster life together. Through Tyson's boxing triumphs, mental health struggles, and their growing family, the couple has maintained their bond since that fateful day in 2008.
Paris's revelations in her new book provide a startling glimpse behind the glamorous facade of celebrity weddings, showing that even world champions face ordinary - and sometimes extraordinary - challenges on their special day.
