The world heavyweight champion has been open about his personal battles - and Paris said it was easier to accept his actions once he received the diagnosis he was bipolar and had OCD.
She said: "I think it was a pure relief and it kind of cemented that we wasn't just wondering what was going on with Tyson anymore.
"From going out with Tyson as a young girl I always knew that there was something different about him and there was always these demons lurking there."
Paris continued: "We never knew there was an actual reason, but once he got diagnosed it did make it so much easier to accept all those things he was going through and I understood it a little bit more.
"He's not just a bad person, he's not just doing these things that I found at the time to be a little bit selfish just because he wants to - it was actually an illness."
Paris was fully supportive of her husband talking about his issues - and she hopes being open about her own struggles can help people can provide comfort for people in a similar situation.
She added: "I don't have them issues, but once I understood it, I knew I had felt really alone and I had some bad times just dealing with it."
Paris continued: "I know that other people who are supporting their partners have been through that situation and they asked how did you deal with it so I hope there's a bit of relief in there that you can come through these times."
Paris interview was a hit with fans on Twitter who praised her honesty in opening up about sensitive topics.
@TellyChat_ said: "Paris Fury is so down to earth."
Bowie added: "Paris Fury …. What a beautiful soul."
Colin commented: "What an absolute great lady and mother Paris Fury is brilliant guest."
