Venezuela Fury, 16, Reveals What Dad Tyson Really Thinks of Her Engagement to Noah Price

Venezuela Fury has the full support of her parents, Tyson Fury and Paris Fury, ahead of her wedding to Noah Price. 

After getting engaged to her boxer boyfriend at her 16th birthday party, Venezuela told The Sun her now-fiancé asked her father, 37, for his blessing before getting down on one knee.

Though she told the outlet that Noah was “having palpitations about doing it,” Venezuela said it immediately became clear to her during the proposal, which took place in front of all of her family and friends last month, that Tyson “wouldn’t interfere.”

She added that her athlete father is “very happy for us.”

As for how Venezuela felt about the grand gesture, she told The Sun that the proposal “came as a huge surprise.”

“I wasn’t overly emotional because I was so surprised and I was very nervous, as I realized a lot of people were watching me,” she said. “It was a very exciting moment, though, probably one of the best of my life. But I would have been content if he had asked me to marry him anywhere. I didn’t care about the ‘big proposal’, but I am very happy.”

Though Venezuela admitted she has yet to meet Noah’s family because he lives a few hours away and works during the week, she has received an abundance of support from her own mother, who married Tyson in November 2008. (Paris was just 19 years old at the time.)

“Venezuela is only young, she’s only 16 and she is engaged, but we are really happy for her, and it’s her choice in life,” Paris, 35, told the Daily Mail in a recent interview. “It is a lovely moment, that’s what I’m saying to her, enjoy this moment, enjoy where you are. I am really proud of her. I have said to Venezuela she has been shown different avenues in life and been offered different opportunities, and this is what she has chosen.”

However, the mom of seven went on to admit that she isn’t quite ready to call herself a grandmother before she’s even reached her 40s. 

“I will smile, but I really don’t think I’m ready to become a granny,” the At Home with the Furys star said. “I couldn’t be an old-looking granny. I will have to be the youngest-looking granny ever.”

Paris continued, “I install into her, Venezuela, enjoy your life, travel, see places, even if it’s them together. Although I don’t believe there is anything more fulfilling than motherhood.”
