'When I fell pregnant with Harris, I announced it on insta with too little consideration. It had been an easy journey and I was in my own blissful world,' she wrote at the time.
'The journey to baby two was a little different, and in truth at times I found myself resenting everyone else’s pregnancy announcements. So this time round, I’d like to be a little more mindful of others out there who are not where they want to be on their journeys to parenthood.
'I am obviously ecstatic about this announcement, yet I long to reach a loving hand out to anyone who is suffering. I’m sorry. It’s not fair. I hope from the depths of my heart that you get what you want or find peace with what you have. So much love to everyone out there, but especially to those whose paths have been rockier and darker than expected.'
Tyson and Paris Fury
Heavyweight boxer Tyson Fury and his wife Paris have revealed the name of their newest arrival and 7th baby – and the poignant reason they've chosen it.
Sticking with the tradition of giving their sons the first name Prince, the couple announced they'd called their new baby Prince Rico Paris Fury, but that he'll be known as Rico.
The little one's name is a tribute to Tyson's late cousin Rico Burton, who was murdered last year, while the name Paris is after his mum.
Speaking about the name to OK! Magazine, Paris said:
'All of my kids have got unusual names and obviously it’s also really personal to Tyson.
'We also added my name because I’ve had 7 kids and I still haven’t had one named after me, so Tyson thought, "Come on, it’s about time!"'
The celebrity couple and stars of Netflix documentary series At Home With The Furys also revealed more details on the birth, adding that Tyson wasn't able to be there for the birth but that he 'saw him soon after'.
Paris continued:
'Usually he’s there by my side, but he had to bail out because he’s fully immersed in training at camp. He was there until a few hours before Rico was born.'
Tyson and Paris announced they'd welcomed their 7th child together last month.
Revealing the news exclusively to OK! Magazine, Paris, 33, announced that she'd given birth to a baby boy on Monday 18 September, 2023.
She told the publication she was 'over the moon' to have had another son and called him the 'most perfect addition' to their family.
Paris said: ‘We’re over the moon to have welcomed our baby boy to the Fury family.
'Our boy is the most perfect addition and we’re bursting with love for him.
'It’s crazy how you can love someone so quick.’
Sharing a photo of the OK! photo on her Insta, she added:
'Can’t believe he’s here.'
To which Tyson, 35, replied:
'He’s perfect.'
Paris and Tyson got married in 2008 and share 6 other children together – daughters Venezuela, 13, Valencia, 5, and Athena, 2, as well as sons Prince John James, 10, Prince Tyson II, 6, and Prince Adonis, 4.
