Why all four of Tyson Fury's sons are named Prince

They fortunately have different middle names to tell them apart

Tyson Fury has something of an unusual tradition when it comes to naming all of his sons.

The dad-of-seven never has to worry about cracking open a baby name book whenever he welcomes another boy, as he's given them all the same name.

That's right, all four Fury sons have been given the name Prince.

Just to stop things from being confusing, they have all fortunately been given different middle names.

There's Prince John James, Prince Tyson Fury II, Prince Adonis Amaziah, and the latest addition to the Fury clan, Prince Rico Paris, who was born in 2023.

His middle name of Rico was a sweet tribute to Tyson’s cousin, Rico Burton, and Paris is after his mother.

Fighter Tyson and his wife Paris also have three daughters, Venezuela, Valencia and Athena.

The girls were all named after places, to take after their mother.

So why are all of the boys called Prince?

The fighting star opened up about the monikers during filming of the Netflix documentary At Home with the Furys.

He revealed it's simply because "I'm a king and they're princes until they earn their rightful name."

When that will be, nobody knows.

The series very nearly didn't happen, as the boxer had second thoughts.

He even contacted his lawyers to find out if they could backtrack out of the lucrative deal with the streaming giant.

Paris also told LADbible that people were surprised by the life they lead.

“I do think that people would believe we lead a different lifestyle to what we do,” Paris said.

“We live a very normal lifestyle on a daily basis. Don’t get me wrong, there’s some incredibly high points and some crazy trips, and there’s this sort of ‘celebrity’ style life that we have sometimes, but on general we do try to keep a flat line of a normal base - like, mother, father, home, kids in school, dog runs, park runs, routine.

“And I think people probably don’t believe that that’s how we live our life, because I hear that quite often.”

It was recently revealed that his eldest son, Prince John James, is set to follow in his father's footsteps and is training to be a boxer.

14-year-old Prince said to iFL TV: “It’s not that I want to, it’s that I am going to. I plan on making it work.

“And listen, whoever’s out there, they’re getting one of these and that’s that. Deal with it.

“I’m going to become the heavyweight world champion. Listen, what a story that would be. Every Fury in the family is a boxer."
