Tyson Fury’s wife admits she’s ‘dreading’ seeing awkward moment involving John Fury in Netflix documentary
Paris Fury says she is ‘dreading’ a particular moment in her new Netflix documentary with her husband Tyson, and it involves his father John.
‘At Home With The Fury’s’ has dropped on Netflix as it takes viewers behind the scenes at the couple’s life.
The nine-episode documentary also includes the fighter’s brother Tommy Fury and his partner Molly-Mae Hague.
Tyson and Paris were asked about a specific moment during the filming of the series when the WBC heavyweight champion called up his dad asking if he fancied jetting off to Pompeii for a holiday.
But Paris didn’t take too kindly to the last-minute getaway as she convinced him to take her instead, with Tyson falsely claiming to his father that all the flights had been cancelled. ‘Big’ John had even packed up his suitcase.
Asked about the situation, she told Metro: “I am so dreading that. I’m dreading this. I think I come out pretty bad.”
The ‘Gypsy King’ added: “The only bonus to it. We have been this year, early April, we went to Pompeii.
“So we actually did it, and I’m glad we didn’t do it on the series because it wasn’t what I expected it to be. Although it was fantastic, but it just wasn’t what we were expecting.”
The documentary has been popular on Netflix, but Tyson recently admitted that he had doubts about filming and even spoke to his lawyers about cancelling the series.
The 35-year-old said: “I wanted out. I was like, couple of weeks in, I said: ‘Is there any way [out]?’
“I’d be on the phone with my lawyers. ‘Is there any way I can get out of this? I don’t know what I’ve signed up for again. I never said I’d do it again. I’ve done it again, I’ve made a mistake’.”
Tyson Fury says Netflix show was a ‘mistake’ and wanted to cancel during filming
Tyson Fury has revealed that he wanted to cancel his new documentary halfway through filming, labelling it as a ‘mistake’.
The documentary – described as a ‘hilarious and heartfelt docusoap’ by Netflix – follows the life of Fury and his family in Morecambe after the boxing icon announced his retirement from the sport in April 2022.
Part of the series also focuses on Fury’s attempts to secure a landmark British boxing fight with Anthony Joshua, and also documents his battles with mental health issues.
And speaking in an interview with Capital XTRA Breakfast, Fury revealed that he had doubts about filming during the early stages – and even consulted lawyers over whether there was a possibility for the family to cancel its contract with Netflix.
He explained: “I wanted out. I was like, couple of weeks in, I said: ‘Is there any way [out]?’
“I’d be on the phone with my lawyers. ‘Is there any way I can get out of this? I don’t know what I’ve signed up for again. I never said I’d do it again. I’ve done it again, I’ve made a mistake’.”
