Venezuela Fury's Wedding at 16 Raises Questions Over Age of Consent
Venezuela Fury's Wedding at 16 Raises Questions Over Age of Consent

Venezuela Fury, the 16-year-old daughter of boxing champion Tyson Fury, married Noah Price in a lavish ceremony on the Isle of Man, sparking debate over the legal age for marriage. The wedding took place at the Victorian Royal Chapel of St John's, with the bride wearing an Italian lace gown featuring a 50-foot train and white Crocs. The event is reportedly being filmed for the family's Netflix series, At Home with the Furys.

While the legal age for marriage in England and Wales was raised to 18 in February 2023, the Isle of Man allows marriage at 16 with parental consent. The Fury family moved to the island earlier this year after security breaches at their previous home in Morecambe. This legal difference has led to questions about how the wedding was permitted.

Paris Fury, Venezuela's mother, defended the decision on This Morning, stating that Venezuela is mature for her age and has helped raise her six younger siblings. She noted that she herself was 17 when she got engaged and supports her daughter's choice. Tyson Fury reportedly danced with his daughter to 'My Girl' by The Temptations, and singer Peter Andre performed at the reception.

The wedding, which included a star-studded guest list, took an unexpected turn when four police cars arrived at the Comis Hotel near Douglas, though no further details have been disclosed. The couple plans to live in a static caravan, following the tradition of Tyson and Paris Fury before their rise to fame.
