Tyson Fury has taken to social media to update fans on his baby girl's progress after she was readmitted to intensive care.

The heavyweight boxing champion from Wythenshawe and his wife Paris have been keeping fans informed following their precious daughter Athena's birth on Sunday.

Tyson, 32, has now posted an adorable new photo of Athena in a moving update about his little one.

"Update for everyone. Athena is doing well and has had a stable day off ventilator," he wrote.

Thanking people for their support and best wishes he said: "Thanks to everyone for the prayers, still in ICU for now."

And he added: "Thanks to all the doctors and nurses. God bless you all."

He announced Athena's arrival with the message: "Please can everyone pray for my baby girl who was born this morning. Athena Fury born 8/8/21. Thanks. God is great."

Yesterday Tyson asked for people's prayers as his daughter went back in ICU.

And earlier today his wife Paris shared the news that Athena had a 'big day today' and added 'please god it goes well.'

The couple announced that Paris was pregnant in February and they revealed that they were expecting a baby girl.

In a chat with sports broadcaster Gareth A Davies, Tyson said: "Paris is pregnant again and the Lord has blessed us definitely with another child and I'm very thankful."

Paris was pictured with Tyson, 32, and their children as they let off confetti cannons that filled their room with pink confetti.

She wrote: "It's a girl. We are due another little princess, god willing come summer we will have 3 girls and 3 boys. So blessed."

The couple have been married since 2009 and are doting 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.

Last month Tyson’s scheduled fight against Deontay Wilder was postponed after the boxer tested positive for Covid. It will now take place in October.
