British boxer Tyson Fury is never one to shy away from shocking, and he’s previously made a very candid admission about the sex life he shares with wife, Paris.
The pair met when Paris was 15 and Tyson was 17, and they went on to marry three years later. They now share seven children, with Paris giving birth to their latest son, Prince Rico, in 2023.
The famous couple, who now boast a multi-million pound fortune, thanks to 35 year old Tyson’s successful boxing career, are traditionally travellers, and Paris, 33, has previously revealed that she and Tyson weren’t allowed to sleep together until they were married – a tradition she said they stuck to.
“We didn’t sleep together until after we got married,” she explained. “That is the travellers’ way. Even after we got engaged, Tyson would sleep in a caravan at my parents’ home, while I slept inside the house.
However, it seems that Tyson didn’t always stick to the same rules as he’s admitted that one of his biggest regrets in his life is having sex before marriage as he said to Boxing News online: “If I could erase that then my life would be practically perfect.”
In 2015, Tyson claimed he has bedded over 500 women in his life as he admitted he’s “lost count”.
“I regret all the filth that you do with people… It’s pure filth and horribleness,” he said. “I look at that now as pure disgusting. I’m not a religious person, but I like to help people and do good things. I’m stopping all the bad stuff.
“I’ve packed in the drinking and going out. I can get up now, go and take the kids somewhere on a Saturday morning rather than being in bed till 12 o’clock.”
And speaking to Behind The Gloves, he dished on his bedroom antics with Paris, as he revealed: “I like having sex, lots of it. At minimum, sex is 60 to 130 minutes, so then I get a good sweat on and treat it as a workout as well.”
He reportedly wrote on Twitter in 2011 that sex helped his muscle tone and fitness levels and has said previously how he ‘normally’ has sex four or five times a week – sometimes three times a day.
Tyson, who was defeated by Oleksander Usyk in a boxing match in Saudi Arabia on Saturday, 18 May, has also previously revealed that he doesn’t believe in abstaining from sex before a big fight, quipping: “No s******g before fights? Nah, that’s a myth, don’t believe it.”
