Venezuela Price, the daughter of former boxing champ Tyson Fury, has spoken out after getting married at the age of 16 in May.
The teenager and her new husband, Noah Price, 19, have received a lot of criticism throughout the wedding process.
The backlash was mostly for their age, but also for Venezuela’s decision to wear Crocs and the type of wedding gifts they received.
“As long as it’s not my family or my friends, they’re the most of what matters to me, I ain’t bothered,” Venezuela said in an interview on “This Morning” on ITV1.
“I don’t like people being unkind; I don’t agree with it.”
Venezuela’s family has supported her and validated the decision to get married young — with the nuptials taking place at Royal Chapel of St. John on the Isle of Man — citing her maturity.
Paris, Venezuela’s mom, said her daughter was following in her footsteps in getting married at a young age to the “person she loves.”
Paris and her husband, acclaimed boxer Tyson, got married when she was 17.
“Yes, I am young, but I’ve found the person I want, and I’ve carried on with my life,” Venezuela said. “Everyone’s got to start somewhere, so I started young.”
The family’s support was represented through a $7 million wedding gift and the extravagant wedding itself.
An insider told the US Sun that Venezuela’s dress cost nearly $54,000, the festivities included 10,000 blue hydrangeas and there was an over-12-foot-tall cake.
Venezuela said she hasn’t regretted her decision to marry at 16 yet, and has really enjoyed married life, despite the change in pace.
The 16-year-old is used to living in a house with six siblings, but reportedly moved to East Yorkshire to live alone with Price.
The newlywed’s husband has also enjoyed the new life, telling “The Morning” he “already lived a married lifestyle.”
The 19-year-old is a boxer from the United Kingdom who competes out of Chesterfield ABC in the amateur super-heavyweight division.
