But how did the couple meet? And where did they get married? This is their full relationship timeline explained.
Tyson and Paris Fury's relationship timeline
2005 - The pair meet for the first time
Tyson and Paris met when Tyson was a 17-year-old unknown boxer and Paris was 15-years-old. Paris said the first time she saw Tyson she thought he looked like Farmer Giles.
"The first time I laid eyes on him he was six foot six, so he was noticeable. He had big long side burns and I made a joke about him because I thought he was a bit gawky. I thought he looked like Farmer Giles," she told The Irish Mirror.
The pair were introduced at mutual friend's wedding by Tyson's Aunt Theresa who is known as the matchmaker in the family, according to Paris.
"I was first introduced to Tyson by his Auntie Theresa. She’s known as the matchmaker in the family. She said to Tyson: ‘Come and meet this young lady’. I lifted my head and I was expecting to see someone at eye level because I’m not small myself, I’m five foot eight.
“I remember thinking, ‘Whose this old man you’re introducing me to?’
“He had a full beard, and was built like a machine. I thought, ‘You’re not a young boy… I’m going… You’ve introduced me to an old man',” she said.
The pair were living on opposite sides of the Pennines with Paris growing up in Doncaster, Yorkshire, and Tyson in Wythenshawe, Manchester. Both Tyson and Paris were brought up in Irish Traveller homes and are both devout Catholics. However, it wouldn't be until a year later that anything happened between them.
2006 - Tyson and Paris begin dating
After meeting at a mutual friend's wedding it wasn't until a year later that the couple were reunited at Paris' 16th birthday party.
Paris describes the couple being 'pulled towards each other' and Tyson compared her to a Sindy Doll during their first conversation.
"Tyson was quite shy, he didn’t speak a lot. The only thing I remember him vividly saying was, ‘You look like a Sindy doll’ and it upset me badly because Sindy is a second rate Barbie. I went, ‘No, I’m not a Sindy doll, at least call me a Barbie," she told the Irish Mirror.
After her birthday party the couple began dating and went on sweet dates ice skating and to the cinema every weekend. They became boyfriend and girlfriend after watching King Kong in the cinema.
November 2008 - Tyson and Paris tie the knot
Two years after the couple started dating, they got married in a ceremony at St. Peter-in-Chains Catholic Church in Doncaster, South Yorkshire in November 2008 with 300 guests present.
As the pair are both practising Catholics, Paris revealed they didn't have sex before their wedding day and Tyson lived in a caravan outside Paris' house until the wedding.
"Even after we got engaged, Tyson would sleep in a caravan at my parents’ home, while I slept inside the house," Paris told the Irish Mirror. "We didn’t sleep together until after we got married. That is the travellers' way."
