Fury and wife Paris have been together since they were 15 and are parents to three other children - Prince John James, Venezuela and Prince Tyson Fury II.

The birth of his fourth child comes as the ex-unified champ, 29, is looking to revive his career.

Fights against Anthony Joshua, Deontay Wilder, Joseph Parker and Tony Bellew have all been touted.

But Fury insists he would not be on the path to recovery if it weren't for his other half.

He said: "My wife is a very loving wife, she is there for me.

“Without her, I would probably not be in the position I am today. I do owe her everything.

“Behind every good man is a better woman.

“I've only myself to blame for what I have done to myself, ballooning up in weight, drinking, eating junk food and not training.

“But through it all, Paris has been there for me. She always gives me her all, you know.

"We also have another child on the way. Paris is three months pregnant with our fourth child."

An all-British showdown between Fury and Bellew looks likely for 2018.

Promoter Eddie Hearn told : "I believe you will see Bellew vs Fury in 2018 but it won't be the next one.

"My plan for Tony Bellew is to beat David Haye then fight Tyson Fury. By the time he beats Haye, the Fury [anti-doping hearing] situation may be in the clear.

"Tony has had discussions with Fury. We have had discussions. I spoke to Fury about that fight.

"Fury has joined up with [management company] MTK, so we will speak to those guys about the fight."

Ricky Hatton was recently pictured alongside an out-of-shape Fury.

But he claims the self-proclaimed Gypsy King has shed three stone - and is tipping him to dethrone Anthony Joshua.

He said: "Don't let that picture fool you. He's in good shape, he's actually sparring. He sparred eight rounds in the gym the other day. He looks really well.

"He's lost three stone and he'd be the first to admit he wants to lose another four, but the main thing is he's setting his stall out.

"His movement and hands are really fast and that's carrying a load of excess. He won't mind me saying that.

"Once he sheds that weight, with his speed and movement, if he fought Anthony Joshua he'd definitely have the advantage. And with a little bit of extra weight on him he'd have a good chance."
