The 32-year-old said: "Massive thanks for all the messages and support.

"The baby is in a stable position and doing well - hopefully she comes out of ICU today."

The boxer received an outpouring of support from fans when he asked people to pray for his new child in a statement yesterday.

He wrote: "Please can everyone pray for my baby girl who was born this morning. Athena Fury born 8/8/21. Thanks. God is great."

Tyson Fury has been in the hospital for the past two days with his Loose Women panellist wife Paris - as the proud parents waited for the baby girl's arrival.

Tyson filmed his wife eating on her hospital bed as she joked: "He is dangerous with a camera.

"Think he's bored now. We nearly at the end of day two in here and still no little girly."

Hours before giving birth Paris shared a video from the hospital showing Tyson watching boxing on his phone.

She wrote on her Instagram Stories with a laughing-face emoji: "Even in this situation, he’s watching the boxing."

The couple have been married since 2009 and are parents to daughters Venezuela, 11, and three-year-old Valencia Amber and sons Prince John James, eight, Prince Tyson II, four and Prince Adonis, one.
