Tyson Fury sells £800k seaside home for knockdown price after boxing star's retirement

Boxer Tyson Fury has sold his beautiful seaside home for a knockdown price. The Gypsy King had originally put the six-bed property on the market for £800,000.

But it was recently reduced to £700,000 and has now been sold, subject to contract, according to the Rightmove website. The house, which overlooks the stunning Morecambe Bay, Lancs, is one of two in the area which are owned by Tyson and his wife Paris.

It was bought by the couple for £480,000 in 2015 and boasts six bedrooms, three bathrooms and “panoramic coastal views”.

Tyson, 37 and Paris, 35, who have seven children, kept it as part of their property portfolio despite moving to a new £1.7million mansion in Morecambe in 2020.

In the past Tyson has lavished praise on the seaside resort, saying: ”People say to me, 'Why don't you live in California’. But why would I? I would never leave Morecambe. It's true beauty."

Earlier this month the couple renewed their wedding vows for a second time, at a church in the South of France. The former world heavyweight champion told fans: "Paris & I got married again third time lucky. We had the most beautiful day in SOF. It holds a lot of special memories for us.”

Paris wore a white lace dress, while Tyson wore shorts and a large cross on a chain around his neck. Their children Venezuela, 15, Prince John James, 13, Prince Tyson II, eight, Valencia, seven, Prince Adonis Amaziah, six, Athena, three, and 22-month-old Prince Rico were also at the occasion in the Provence-Alpes Cote d'Azur region.

But on the return journey their private plane had to make an emergency landing, following a technical problem. Posting on social media during the flight, Fury said: "We've travelled 100 miles on the plane and the captain’s come over to me and said, 'We've got to turn this plane around because there's a problem with one of the wings and it won't fix on the computer'. We're now spinning the plane around and going back to the airport where we started. Terrifying."

He and Paris wed in her home town of Doncaster, South Yorks, in 2008 and first renewed their vows in New York in 2013. Earlier this year Fury announced he was quitting boxing in the wake of back-to-back defeats by Oleksandr Usyk. But last week he posted photos of him back in training and he has been linked with a return to the ring next year.

In July Fury said he would be tempted to pull on the gloves once more by the prospect of a third bout with the undisputed world champion Usyk, 38. He said: ”If I was going to come back, I would come back for Usyk.”

In the same month the Mirror told how Fury’s private company, into which he channels all of his earnings, has assets of just under £162million.
