Tyson Fury has opened up on the tragic news that his wife, Paris, suffered a miscarriage sixth months into her pregnancy, which he learnt the night before he lost the world heavyweight title unification fight versus Oleksandr Usyk in May.
Speaking earlier today, he stated:
"She lost [the baby] on the Friday of the fight, which was pretty shitty.
"I am not making excuses but she was six months pregnant. It’s not like a small miscarriage at the beginning.
"You have to physically give birth to a dead child, on your own, while your husband is in a foreign country.
"I could not be there for her, in that moment, and that is tough for me.
"I have been with the woman for longer than I wasn’t with her, so it is hard that I couldn’t be there with her."
An emotional Fury revealed the news before he and Usyk attended a press conference in London ahead of a rematch.
The rematch will be in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on 21 December.
Fury admitted that before the news, he had began to fear the worst.
"When she said she couldn’t come over, I knew there was a problem.
"She usually comes out on fight week but she had high blood pressure and couldn’t come. I asked her what was up and to tell me but she wouldn’t. So I knew."
