Tyson Fury and his wife Paris have revealed the name they have given their newborn baby, and it’s a beautiful family tribute.

The beautiful baby boy, who was born 18 September, is their seventh child together.

Today, in an exclusive with OK! Magazine, Paris Fury confirmed that they’ve settled on a name for the tiny new addition.

He is called Prince Rico Paris Fury, but will be known as Rico.

His name is a tribute to Tyson’s cousin Rico Burton, who died after being stabbed outside a bar in Altrincham.

The baby’s middle name is a tribute to his mum Paris, 32, who has become a national treasure through their Netflix series At Home With The Tysons.
