Tyson Fury's wife, Paris Fury, has opened up on their rather interesting first interaction with each other when they were both teenagers.

Paris was not in attendance for Fury's fight with Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia on Saturday, as Fury was defeated for the first time in his career via a split decision.

Following her husband's defeat she said she loved him "more than ever" telling Fury she "will never not be at your side for a fight again. Even though I couldn't be there, I wished I was.”

The pair have been married since 2008 and have seven children together, four sons and three daughters.

Despite going on to have a very happy and loving relationship, Paris has previously opened up about their rather awkward first interaction where Tyson 'upset' her.

"The only thing I remember him vividly saying was: ‘You look like a Sindy doll’ and it upset me badly because Sindy is a second-rate Barbie," Paris previously told the Mirror.

"I remember thinking, ‘Who is this old man you’re introducing me to?’ He had a full beard, and was built like a machine."

Paris continued: "We'd first met the year before at a wedding and then again on my 16th birthday. Although I couldn't believe he was only a year older than me (I thought he was about 25 when I first saw him!) I liked him from the very beginning - he was so different to other boys.

"I didn't say yes to dating straight away though, he'd asked me out a lot of times before I agreed! It was a big deal he would be my 1st boyfriend.

"Our first date was to see King Kong at the cinema and later I found out he'd told his parents afterwards that he was going to marry me."
