The mother-of-seven was seen ahead of her husband’s latest blockbuster fight after he claimed he hadn’t spoken to her in three months
Tyson, 36, claimed earlier this week that he had not spoken to his wife Paris in three months as he locked himself away from his training camp this time to stay focused and win.
Tyson’s younger brother Tommy was also present and sat with the rest of the Fury camp.
It comes after Paris, who suffered a miscarriage the last time Tyson was training, revealed the heartbreaking reason why he still hasn’t spoken to her ahead of the fight.
Speaking to IFLtv, Paris opened up about the situation, explaining: ‘It’s true. After the last fight, everything that happened personally in our lives and Tyson had the outcome of the last time, he decided this on his own and I had to support him.
‘He didn’t want to get involved in family life, he has closed himself off in recent months, putting himself in a serious condition and he looks very determined.
“If it’s meant to be, God willing, it will all come true tomorrow night and it will all be good and worthwhile.”
On the eve of Tyson’s fight against Oleksandr Usyk in May, a stoic Paris selflessly endured the pain of having to give birth to a dead child alone so that the boxer could concentrate on his fight, which was taking place thousands of miles away. Saudi Arabia.
He ultimately lost the fight and surrendered his WBC world heavyweight title to the Ukrainian boxer, before returning to England and realizing his worst fears had been confirmed.
“When she said she couldn’t come over [to Riyadh]I knew there was a problem,” Fury told the Mirror.

Tyson’s younger brother Tommy was also present and in the Fury camp
“She normally comes out during fight week, but she said she had high blood pressure.”
He added that [Saudi boxing chief] Turki Alalshikh offered to transport them in a private jet and said he would take the doctor with him.
‘She said she couldn’t come and I asked her what was going on and asked her to tell me but she didn’t. So I knew, I knew there was a problem. I told my brother, ‘She lost that baby.’ She never told me she had lost the baby, but I knew.
Fury added that he was “not making excuses” but that his wife had to “physically give birth to a dead child” while he was abroad.
“I’ve been with the woman longer than I’ve been away from her, so it’s hard that I couldn’t be with her during that time. When I came back I got the inevitable confirmation that it was gone, but she kept it to herself.’
Tyson and Paris have seven children together after welcoming Prince Rico to the clan last September.
The couple have three daughters and four sons and welcomed their eldest child and first daughter, Venezuela Fury, in 2009.
Prince John James followed in 2011 and their brother Prince Tyson Fury II arrived in 2016.
Valencia Amber was born in 2017, followed by Prince Adonic Amaziah in 2019 and Athena in 2021.
Earlier this week, the boxer claimed he had not spoken to Paris in three months during his training camp.
Still, Paris made sure she was there to support her husband of 16 years ahead of his blockbuster showdown.

Speaking about his training camp, Tyson told TNT Sports host Dev Sahni: “It’s been a long camp. I’ve been away from my wife and children for three months, I haven’t spoken to Paris at all for three months, not a word. Yes, I have sacrificed a lot.’
Earlier in the day, Paris shared a selfie with her son Prince, 13, as they traveled in luxury on their private jet to the Middle East ahead of the match.
The mum-of-seven flashed a smile and wrote: ‘On the road @tysonfury’ after speaking out earlier this week about the extraordinary measures the heavyweight champion has taken ahead of his next fight.
Paris shared, “People don’t see the sacrifices that have been made. I made him focus solely on this fight. It seems like he’s gone forever, especially without contact, but if that’s what he needs.”
Tyson’s extreme measures show how seriously he is taking his rematch with Oleksander, the man who handed him his first professional defeat and stripped him of the WBC heavyweight title.
Oleksander became the undisputed heavyweight champion in Riyadh when he handed Tyson the first professional defeat of his storied career, beating him via split decision.
Oleksander is taking the upper hand in the clash and heads into Saturday’s battle with a whopping 60 percent of the total £150 million purse secured.
Tyson, who did have negotiating power in May, will retain the remaining 40 percent.

Paris wrote, “People don’t see the sacrifices that have been made. I made him focus solely on this fight. It seems like he’s gone forever, especially without contact.”
After months of intense training and a complete mental reset, he insists he is more focused and driven than ever. However, he claims that he will keep the same fighting style.
“I have to be more focused this time and not showboat so much,” he said. ‘One of the commentators said: ‘Has anyone ever seen Tyson Fury clown around so much against even lower level opposition?’ It was that easy for me and you can get complacent.”
However, he added: “I won’t change anything. Why would I do that when I had maybe 80 percent control of the battle? I land on him at will, head and body, leading right uppercuts, left hooks, right hooks to the body, sometimes doubles.
‘I don’t have to change anything. I don’t think he can either because he won’t beat me on the back foot. He has to step up and make it a fight.”
