Tyson Fury won't send any of his children to school after age of 11
Tyson Fury and wife Paris have seven children together and have different opinions on their education after the pair were brought up differently
Tyson Fury and his wife Paris are very traditional when it comes to their children's education.
The 'Gypsy King' and his wife Paris, who have been together since their teens, have been criticised for the way they parent their kids, Venezuela, Prince John, Prince Tyson II, Valencia Amber, Prince Adonis Amaziah, Athena Amour and baby Prince Rico in the past, with Paris, 35, admitting she's often "stared at" when they are out in Morecambe.
Last year, Paris, revealed her eldest two children will not be returning to formal education. Venezuela was taken out of school at the age of 11, and Prince John James, 13, recently joined his sister as they undertake their studies from the Fury family's mansion in Morecambe.
Paris has faced some stick over the years, with people writing on her Instagram page: 'Surely they are missing out on the most valuable part of going to school, making new friends and interacting with lots of different people…' However, appearing on Loose Women, the busy mum defended the decision, by revealing it is tradition for travellers to educate their kids at home.
"We finish school at primary age, which is the traditional traveller way," Paris explained. "We've just brought the tradition into the 21st century. Venezuela wanted to leave school and all her friends were leaving. Her tutor is going to keep her up to date with all of her tests. She will also be having piano lessons."
However, despite the Traveller tradition, Tyson wanted his sons to continue with their education. The couple's differing views on schooling surfaced during their 2020 documentary. "Me and Tyson have talked about the kids going to school," said Paris. "Tyson wants the boys to go into education but I don't; it's just not what we've ever done. I was brought up as a Traveller and I want my kids to be brought up as Travellers. They will probably leave school at 11 and they'll be educated at home from then.
"The boys will take a wife and make their family and the girls will take a husband and make their family. Until they take a husband or wife they won't be leaving the home and I wouldn't want them to." Fury said in response: "You say it's something we've never done but I'm a precedent setter, am I not? Now I've set these laws and precedents, you watch how many will follow. The parents of these kids, I call them dream killers. Just because something went wrong in their life you can't pawn it off on your kids."
Former two-time heavyweight champion now has a lot of time on his hands after announcing his retirement from boxing earlier this year. He recently took to social media to claim son Prince John James had "joined the family business", indicating he may follow his famous father into the fight game.

Stacey, who shot to fame as a teenage mum on The X Factor, added that it was her photographer dad who instilled the importance of financial independence in her. 'My dad didn't treat us any differently, as soon as we got jobs, we had to contribute. I was excited to earn my own money and be financially independent. I want my children to be excited for that too,' she said. 'It's a wider picture of their self-worth and their happiness in general. I want them to feel accomplished and have things.'

They continued to row over the time with Zach insisting his 4am bedtime had prevented him from waking up any earlier. Stacey demanded that Zach take the bins out before "clearing up the bottom of the garden" from where he had his party. Things then turned up a gear as Stacey added: "Shall I let the boys [Zach's friends] know that they are ready for their chores too?" A fuming Zach spat back at his mum: "No! What are you doing - you're p***ing me off!" Stacey then lost her cool as she raged: "If you swear at me one more time Zach - no, I'm not joking. "No, just because there is people here doesn't mean I won't have that argument with you. "No, you won't do that!" Zach then replied that "no one cares" before walking off after the fiery confrontation. Stacey welcomed Zach at the age of 17 and before she found fame on The X Factor. 6 6
