Paris Fury chose to haul her oldest two children out of school once they turned 11, and plans are apparently in place for her youngest five to follow in their footsteps.
The Fury matriarch, 36, recently had her first taste of her bairns gaining independence when her eldest daughter, Venezuela Fury, 16, became engaged to 17-year-old boxer Noah Price.
On an episode of the Not My Bagg podcast, Paris spoke about the teenager’s impending departure from the Fury mansion, claiming: “I know she’ll be fine, getting on with an exciting new life. It’s me I’m worried about.”
Venezuela, who became a bride-to-be on her 16th birthday, recently held her hen do at Morecombe FC, with Molly-Mae Hague opting to skip the party for a babymoon to Switzerland with boyfriend Tommy Fury, both 26.

Like her brother, Prince John James, 14, Venezuela, left school when she was just 11 - a decision her mother made for her.
Paris was born into a traditional Traveller family where children are reportedly expected to quit school-based education when they turn 11.
In an interview with The Sun in 2022, the mother-of-seven said: “We’ve just brought the tradition into the 21st century. Venezuela wanted to leave school and all her [traveller] friends were leaving.
“Her tutor is gonna keep her up to date with all of her tests. She will also be having piano lessons."
She continued: "We move so much. It wouldn’t work if they were in school full-time to then be off to America."
A year later, the Netflix star announced that Prince John James had followed in his sister’s footsteps.
“Tomorrow will be the first day all four little ones are in school/nursery and the big two with a tutor for homeschool. Roll on Friday,” she wrote at the time.
Paris shares her eldest children, alongside Prince Tyson II, nine, Valenica Amber, eight, Prince Adonis Amaziah, seven, Athena, four, and Prince Rico Paris, two, with heavyweight boxer Tyson Fury.
According to Paris, the 37-year-old initially disagreed with the decision to pull all their children out of school.
“Me and Tyson have talked about the kids going to school. Tyson wants the boys to go into education but I don’t; it’s just not what we’ve ever done.
“I was brought up as a Traveller and I want my kids to be brought up as Travellers. They will probably leave school at 11 and they’ll be educated at home from then.”
The Fury’s choice to homeschool their behemoth brood was discussed by Paris’ brother-in-law, Tommy, who welcomed a child with girlfriend Molly-Mae in 2023.
The latter, who met the boxer on series five of Love Island, said on an episode of At Home With The Furys that she would like her daughter Bambi to be educated at school.
Meanwhile, Tommy said he was leaning more toward homeschooling.
“I’ve been raised completely differently to that. It would never be a question that our children or child would not go to school,” Molly-Mae said.
“But hopefully, it won’t cause too many rifts.”
Molly-Mae does not feature in season two of At Home With The Fury’s despite being mentioned numerous times across the show.
According to Cosmopolitan, this is because the influencer is filming her own reality TV show, Molly-Mae: Behind It All for Prime Video.
Tyla has previously contacted a representative for Molly for comment.
At Home With The Furys is available on Netflix now.
