The reason behind the absence of Tyson Fury’s mum in the Gypsy King’s new Netflix documentary has been revealed.
Last week, Fury and his family offered an insight into their private life after ‘At Home With The Furys’ was released on the popular streaming platform, Netflix.
The heavyweight champion, along with his wife, Paris opened up on their life away from the boxing ring.

However, Fury’s mum, Amber, was nowhere to be seen.
Over the years, it has been well documented that Amber has kept a low profile despite the major successes that Fury has had during what has been a stellar boxing career.
Speaking previously to the Irish Mirror, Fury explained why his mum isn’t one for the limelight.

He said: “I looked on Google the other day and there’s not one picture of my mother on the internet. That’s crazy isn’t it?
“She has never been to one of my boxing fights, amateur or professional and never been in the public eye at all. She’s a private person. That’s her priority, not mine.”
Fury added: “I don’t think it means anything to my mum. She doesn’t care if I’m world champion or not, as long as I’m healthy and happy. That is the only thing that means anything to her.
“You could give my mother that table full of £50 notes and diamonds and it wouldn’t change who she is, ever.

“Money can’t change certain individuals; nothing can. You could give her the power to run the UK, it wouldn’t matter, it wouldn’t change her.”
In his autobiography, ‘Behind The Mask’, Fury also talked about his mum.
He said: “To be honest, my mum doesn't fully understand what I have achieved as a boxer.

“I took her out shopping one time after the Wilder fight and I was being stopped for photographs and autographs everywhere I went in Manchester and she couldn't understand it.
“I had to explain to her that I was the heavyweight champion of the world and a lot of people had watched me and supported me. That was actually very special.”
At Home With The Furys is available to watch on Netflix now.
