MUM-OF-SEVEN Paris Fury has proved she can take on the world after stepping down from Tyson’s company to focus on her own projects.
Since flying solo, the 34-year-old has raked in £180,000 from book and PR deals and social media ads, new documents show.

Power couple Paris and Tyson, 35, who met in 2006 and married in 2008, have a reported combined net worth of around £70 million.
But Paris was keen to step out of her husband’s heavyweight shadow when she resigned from his company, Tyson Fury Ltd, in August 2022.
She established her own company – harmoniously named Paris Fury Ltd – on the same day.
New Companies House documents show that the busy mum raked in £178,480 in the 12 months to August last year.
The handsome sum was made through book publishing, sales, public relations and advertising agencies, the accounts show.
“I’ve come from a strong line of women, and we didn’t just learn how to cook and clean,” Paris said in an exclusive interview to Fabulous last year.
“My mum taught me how to drive, she taught me how to use the bank, do businesses, get into college.
“She told me, ‘you can do this’ and she helped me out trying to do homework, paperwork, and job interviews – all this stuff came from the wisdom of an older woman.
“I think travellers have this stereotype that all the women know is how to clean.
“I wasn’t just taught how to shine silver or polish dishes, I was taught how to run a home, a business and be a strong, independent woman.”
WHO IS PARIS?
Born in Doncaster to an Irish traveller family, Paris left school at 11 without any qualifications and was later homeschooled.
She married Tyson aged 17 after meeting him at 15, and the couple have since welcomed seven children.
Amid carrying and raising her brood, Paris has released two autobiographies, starred in two different series about Tyson’s life and made substantial sums from endorsements on Instagram.
She released her first book, Love and Fury: The Magic and Mayhem of Life with Tyson, in October 2021.
This was swiftly followed by How Does She Do It? The Kids, Tyson & Me in September 2023.
Paris raked in a handsome sum when filming her family’s hit Netflix show, At Home With The Furys – a job which cemented her as a household name in the UK.
Culture experts even predicted the series could land her a spin-off show as mums across the globe connected with her down-to-earth persona.
After it premiered in August 2023, she went on to land two magazine covers (including one with Fabulous), a clothing edit with high-street giant New Look, a huge Christmas social media deal with B&M and two sponsored holidays to Saudi Arabia.

Despite her hectic schedule and high profile, Paris has made it no secret that being a mother to her seven children is her priority.
With Tyson, she shares Venezuela, 14, Prince John James, 11, Prince Tyson II, seven, Valencia, five, Prince Adonis Amaziah, five, Athena, two and baby Rico, seven months.
Just a week after her youngest was born in September last year, Paris was Fabulous’ September 24 coverstar and graced the cover of OK! Magazine’s October edition.
By the end of October, she had done a book signing at Waterstones in Manchester’s iconic Trafford Centre and travelled to Saudi Arabia to accompany Tyson on work.
But among all the glitz and glamour of her high-flying solo career, Paris has also shared candid insights into life as a mum-of-seven.
She shared Instagram stories about the realities of having a teething baby, dubbed herself a “DIY Queen” when putting up a curtain pole and has admitted to loving life when the bulk of her children return to school after time off for holidays.
“My home and my family is at the heart of everything I do, like any mam I think,” she said in August last year.
“I’m a busy, hands-on parent with children to raise and a household to manage.
“In my eyes, there’s nothing more important than being a loyal wife and a good mother, and I work really hard to ensure that Tyson and the kids are properly looked after.
“Their welfare and well-being matters more to me than anything else on earth – if they’re happy, I’m happy.
“So, I gladly devote the lion’s share of my time to those priorities.”

DOWN TO EARTH
Despite living in a “golden” £1.7 million mansion, Paris is still keen to raise her children with the humble values she was raised with.
She claims to not spoil them on birthdays, loves doing the food shop in Asda, still wears clothes from Primark and gets them to help around the house.
What’s more, she’ll never pay for her children to sit in first class when the family jet off on holiday.
“I’ve done first class a few times and every time I wonder, ‘why are we here?’, especially with all our kids,” she told Fabulous.
“I can’t be that person in first class with my kids going wild.
“I’d be a bit of a bad mother if I went into first class and left them in economy.”
