Tyson Fury isn't too famous to go to the tip in new reality show

He may be one of the world’s biggest sports stars and worth more than £100million – but Tyson Fury isn’t too famous to go to the tip.

The boxer throws open the doors to the chaos of his larger-than-life family’s exploits in a new reality show.

In hilarious scenes, down-to-earth Tyson is seen carrying out menial household tasks while decked out in flamboyant designer clobber worth thousands.

He heads to his local dump where he rifles through the bins and goes home with some cast-off Manchester United posters he thinks will go well in his Morecambe home.

Tyson, 31, and wife Paris, 29, also grapple with their five children – Venezuela, 10, Prince John James, eight, Prince Tyson Fury II,
three, Valencia, two, and one-year-old Prince Adonis Amaziah.

The couple, who both hail from the traveller community, look back over their 18-year relationship as they go through a box of gifts they’ve given to each other.

The three-part series follows Tyson – known as the Gypsy King – last year
as he prepares to take on the biggest fight of his life against world heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder , 34.

They fought to a controversial draw but will clash again in a February 22 rematch.

It also follows Tyson’s mental health battles. He spent years crippled with depression and was diagnosed with both OCD and bipolar.

At his lowest point, he wanted to kill himself.

He says: “I haven’t defeated mental health.

“I still have bad days and good days, but I learn to maintain and that’s it.”

Tyson Fury: The Gypsy King starts on ITV, Thursday, 9pm
