It’s been over a month since Venezuela Fury got married to Noah Price - and she’s finally revealed why she and her dad, Tyson, each donned a pair of sunnies down the aisle.
The 16-year-old daughter of Tyson and Paris Fury got married to the 19-year-old amateur boxer in a lavish ceremony on the Isle of Man on 16 May.
From a humongous 12ft wedding cake to a specially designed dress and even a performance from Peter Andre, it’s safe to say that the Fury family pulled out all of the stops for the teen’s big day.
Although the wedding wasn’t open to the public, videos and photos taken by guests and onlookers quickly circulated on social media.

And one particular moment that caught the attention of fans was when Venezuela walked down the aisle, arm in arm with her famous father.
The 16-year-old and her dad walked to the unique choice ‘Juicy’ by The Notorious B.I.G, AKA Biggie Smalls, while both wearing sunglasses.
The iconic moment quickly did the rounds online, with fans believing it was just a choice that was made due to personal taste.
However, in an interview on ITV’s This Morning on Monday (22 June), Venezuela revealed that it was actually more of a tactical decision.
Catching up with hosts Cat Deeley and Ben Shepherd about married life, she admitted: “Me and my dad cried our eyes out on the morning, so we had the glasses on.”
While Noah added: “It was emotional, but she was beautiful - it was a warm feeling inside my heart.”
Hitting out at those criticising her for getting married young, the teen said: “I think, as long it’s not my family or my friends, they’re the people what matter to me, I ain’t bothered.
“I don’t like people being unkind. I don’t agree with spreading badness where they shouldn’t be.
“But yes, I am young, but I found the person I want, and I’ve carried on with my life. Everyone’s got to start somewhere, so I started young.”
She gushed: “I’m enjoying it. We’ve only been married a month, but everything’s going smoothly.
“I’m learning new things every day. I’m learning how to cook. We go everywhere together. We do everything together. It’s really nice.”
While Noah chimed in: “I didn’t want to mess her about, I thought she was perfect.
“I was her first boyfriend, she was wife material. When I first seen her, I thought, yeah, I’m gonna marry that girl one day. And then I made the dream come true.”
Following the teenager saying 'I Do' to husband Noah Price, many have been wondering how exactly she was able to legally become a wife.
In 2023, it became illegal in England and Wales for anyone under the age of 18 to get married. The minimum age was raised from 16 to 18 in a bid to protect vulnerable children across the UK, the UK government states.
The Marriage and Civil Partnership (Minimum Age) Act 2022 means that 16 and 17-year-olds are strictly not allowed to marry or enter a civil partnership, even if they have parental consent. It is illegal and a criminal offence to exploit vulnerable children by arranging for them to marry, under any circumstances, whether or not force is used.
Taking all of this into consideration, fans have been scratching their heads over how Venezuela was able to legally tie the knot to husband Noah.
Well, it was all because of their wedding location - the Isle of Man.
Fans of the family will know that Tyson moved his wife Paris and their seven children from Morecambe, Lancashire, to the Isle of Man in November 2025 because of the number of 'disturbed' visitors who would arrive at his house at all hours of the day and night.
"I looked at moving abroad, far away, but it turned out that the Isle of Man is the perfect place for me – English speaking, English pound notes," Tyson said, per ITV News. "I can go and get an English newspaper from the local petrol station with my coffee and speak my own lingo."
And it turns out that the big move worked very well in Venezuela's favour, as the legal minimum age of marriage in the Isle of Man is 16, rather than 18.
Parental consent is needed for anyone aged 16 or 17 wanting to tie the knot, which wasn't an issue at all for Venezuela and Noah.
Mum Paris has been outspoken in defending her daughter's decision to marry so young, with her previously saying on This Morning: "Venezuela is so mature for her years. She's done so much in such a short time just because of who she is and the fact that she's got six younger brothers and sisters that she's helped bring up, I can't deny it...”
Pointing out how she was 17 when she married Tyson, Paris added: "She's obviously following in my footsteps, so how can I judge her in any way. I know she's young. But I think she's found the person she loves and if she's happy, I will completely support her."
