Heavyweight boxing champion Tyson Fury is once again in the spotlight, but this time it is not because of boxing. Just weeks after his April 2026 comeback win over Arslanbek Makhmudov, attention has shifted to his family after his 16-year-old daughter, Venezuela Fury, married 19-year-old amateur boxer Noah Price. The wedding quickly became one of the most talked-about stories online because of the couple’s young age. As people reacted to the marriage, many also started talking about Tyson Fury’s own love story with his wife, Paris Fury. Fans noticed strong similarities between the two relationships. Paris Fury was also a teenager when she got engaged to Tyson Fury. The couple met when they were young, stayed together through Tyson’s rise in boxing, and built a large family over the years. Because of that shared experience, Tyson and Paris strongly supported their daughter’s decision even while facing criticism from some family members and social media users.
Tyson Fury and Paris Fury defended Venezuela Fury’s teenage wedding despite John Fury’s strong disagreement
Venezuela Fury married Noah Price at 16, while her mother Paris Fury was also very young when she began her own journey with Tyson Fury. Paris got engaged to Tyson when she was 17 and he was 18. Two years later, the pair married in a traditional ceremony in Doncaster in November 2008. Paris was 19 at the time, while Tyson Fury was 20.The couple have now spent nearly two decades together and even renewed their wedding vows twice. Their first renewal happened in New York in 2013. Then in August 2025, they celebrated another ceremony in Nice, France. Only months later, they were helping prepare for Venezuela Fury’s wedding to Noah Price.Still, the marriage created tension inside the Fury family. Tyson Fury’s father, John Fury, openly disagreed with the decision and said Venezuela was too young to get married. Speaking on At Home with the Furys, John Fury said, “They’re children! I don’t think she’s mature enough for anything like that, she’s still a baby.”When Tyson Fury tried to explain that Venezuela was nearly 16, John Fury answered with another strong remark. He said, “On my watch a 15 year old should never have a boyfriend, never.”Even with that disagreement, Tyson and Paris Fury continued to support their daughter publicly. Paris Fury explained that Venezuela had always acted older than her age because she helped care for her six younger siblings. Speaking on This Morning, Paris said, “Venezuela is so mature for her years. She’s done so much in such a short time just because of who she is and the fact that she’s got six younger brothers and sisters that she’s helped bring up.”Venezuela Fury also showed she was standing firmly by her decision. Only an hour after marrying Noah Price, she changed her Instagram username to @venezuelaprice1, while still keeping Venezuela Fury as her display name.
