Venezuela Fury, Tyson Fury and Paris Fury’s 16-year-old daughter, has shared fresh insight into her engagement and her hopes for a wedding later this year.
The teen, the eldest daughter of the heavyweight boxing icon and TV favourite, confirmed she is already thinking about dates after getting engaged to her boyfriend, Noah, at her sixteenth birthday party.
Answering questions from followers during an Instagram Q&A, Venezuela admitted she is eager to get plans moving.
Asked when the big day might be, she said: ‘I’m trying to get everything booked for May/June time, but I’m not sure when it will be.’
She also made it clear she won’t be moving far before saying ‘I do.’
Sharing a sweet photo alongside her mum, she replied to another fan: ‘No, I will be in my mam and dad’s home til I’m married.’
Paris, 35, shared the moment Noah proposed to her daughter via a video to her Instagram account, set to an instrumental version of Benson Boone’s Beautiful Things.
In the clip, East Midlands boxing belt holder Noah got down on one knee before sliding the ring onto Venezuela’s finger and sharing a kiss.
In the caption, Paris wrote: ‘Congratulations to Venezuela Fury and Noah Price on getting engaged. Both only young but when you know you know!’
Venezuela’s engagement has sparked plenty of debate online due to her age, but Paris has spoken openly about standing firmly behind her daughter.
Reflecting on her own experiences, she explained that she was engaged at 17 and has no regrets.
Talking to The Sunday Mirror, Paris revealed: ‘I did encourage her to wait as long as possible, but she was determined.
‘We’re all really happy for her and Noah—they’re a great match and genuinely excited about this next chapter in her life.’
She added: ‘Yes, she’s young, but as we all know, that’s in line with our traditions and values. I was engaged to Tyson at 17, so we’re not far off in age.’
Speaking to The Sun, the matriarch insisted she’s ‘really pleased’ for her daughter, adding: I got engaged at 17, so even though I feel she’s young, I did it. I wouldn’t change a thing.

‘So if that’s what she wants to do, then 100 per cent, me and her dad support her.’
Interestingly, Paris suggested her daughter may be taking things more calmly than social media suggests, adding that Venezuela isn’t in a rush to plan an extravagant event.
‘She’s not rushing to plan weddings or get married,’ she said to The Sun. ‘We have very different tastes. She has said she wants a smaller wedding, so if that’s what she wants, I’ll go along with it.’
Elsewhere in her Q&A, Venezuela answered a question about growing up in the spotlight, admitting she started wearing make-up, fake lashes and nails at a young age.
‘Too young,’ she wrote. ‘I was 12 on this and I started wearing nails and make-up things like that at 11.’
But as Paris has intimated, the pair seem to be following in the footsteps of Venezuela’s own mum and dad, who started dating at 16 and 17, and doing many of life’s milestones a bit early.
In keeping with Paris and Tyson’s Irish traveller heritage, the pair married young – when Paris was 19 and he was 21.
Irish Travellers tend to marry young due to cultural traditions which emphasise family, community, and the belief that marriage is for life.
Paris and Tyson have since renewed their wedding vows three times—with the most recent ceremony taking place this August in the South of France.
Speaking about renewing their vows back in January, Paris told OK!: ‘I don’t want a big ceremony or a big wedding, I’d like something private with just me and him.
‘It’ll be nice to reaffirm our vows. If he had his way he’d have it like a circus – a whole Big Fat Gypsy Wedding again! But I think I’ll go subtle.’
The so-called ‘Gypsy King,’ and his wife share seven children together after first welcoming their eldest daughter Venezuela in 2009.
Next up was Prince John James in 2011, followed by Prince Tyson Fury II in 2016.
Valencia Amber was born in 2017, followed by Prince Adonic Amaziah in 2019 and Athena in 2021.
Youngest child Prince Rico Paris Fury was born in 2023, completing the set (for now).
