"Tyson had some reservations but has finally said he’d be up for inviting the cameras back into his life.

“Paris is expecting their seventh child this month so it’ll be a while.”

The Sun had first reported on the show’s possible renewal at the start of August, before the first series had even aired.

Numnerous viewers have commented on Tyson’s behaviour and the way it affects his family – including those from the Preston and Blackpool areas.

Speaking to OK! magazine, a source close to the Furys said: “Paris is heartbroken by the comments she’s seeing about Tyson. She has always known he’s someone difficult to get your head around and that he can be hard work, but she didn’t expect him to receive such a bad reception from the public.

“She’s so headstrong, so she’s finding it really hard to see so many comments taking pity on her for the way Tyson’s mental health sometimes causes him to behave.”

While promoting the first series, Tyson had also claimed he had “wanted out” and he regretted letting cameras in his family’s lives, so his decision to press ahead with another season may surprise fans.

The second series, which could drop next year, is likely to focus on Tyson’s upcoming, high-profile fight with UFC champion Francis Ngannou in October.

The match, taking place in Saudi Arabia on October 29 will not put Tyson’s title on the line as Ngannou, who makes his professional boxing debut on the night, is not ranked by the WBC.
