Tyson Fury may be a heavyweight champ, but his younger brother Tommy Fury is punching his way to stardom in his own right. With the same dad, John Fury, Tommy was born to mum Chantal in Manchester and stepped into the ring professionally at just 19 years old in 2018.
But it wasn't just boxing that put Tommy, 24, in the spotlight; he shot to fame on Love Island's fifth series in 2019, which had Tyson, 35, seriously worried about his little brother's career choices.
On the show, Tommy found love with Molly-Mae Hague, 24, and they've since got engaged, welcomed their adorable daughter Bambi, and even featured on 'At Home With The Furys'.
Despite his success on Love Island, Tyson wasn't all for Tommy searching for romance on TV. "A lot of people told Tommy: "Don't go on Love Island. What are you doing that for? You'll ruin your career. I was one of them," Tyson confessed.
"I said to Tommy, 'Look, are you a boxer, or do you want to be a TV person? ' Well, it turned out to be the best thing that could have happened to him.", reports the Mirror.
Since leaving the Love Island villa, Tommy Fury has been throwing punches in the spotlight, taking on big names like Jake Paul and KSI. Despite his efforts, he's still seen as trailing behind his heavyweight champ brother Tyson, who even coached him for the KSI clash.
Tyson didn't hold back his thoughts, saying: "I can be brutally honest because we always are."
"The fact that Tommy's made £10m for this fight he's 24 years old, he's probably made £26m from his 10-fight career, it's unbelievable. I'm very, very proud of where he's come from. In 2018 Tommy didn't have £10 for a bus pass, today he's got a hell of a lot of money so I'm very proud of him. He can buy what he wants. He's got a £5m mansion, G-Wagons, Lambos, Rolexes, the guy's flying."
Away from the ring, Tommy's not exactly strapped for cash, partly thanks to his power couple status with Molly-Mae Hague. The Instagram sensation Molly-Mae is banking it with her own tanning brand, a bestselling memoir 'Becoming Molly-Mae', and some multi-thousand pound sponsorship deals.
Molly-Mae and Tommy, one of Love Island's most iconic duos, have been going strong since their 2019 summer of love. Molly-Mae's bombshell arrival quickly led to sparks flying with Tommy, and they didn't waste any time becoming an official item, sealing the deal well before the final.
Tommy pulled out all the stops to make it official with Molly-Mae in the villa, crafting a fairytale ask-out that had viewers rooting for them to win the hefty £50,000 prize.
Communicating his feelings through her favourite stuffed toy Ellie-Belly, he expressed his affection saying: "On a serious note, you know how much you mean to me and you're the only girl for me. I only want to be with you. Therefore, I was wondering if you wanted to be my girlfriend? ".
Despite taking second place in their 2019 edition of Love Island, behind Amber Gill and Greg O'Shea, the recently betrothed duo have outshone the majority of their fellow islanders in terms of achievement and enduring relationships. The pair joyfully introduced their first child, daughter Bambi, in January 2023 and shortly afterwards, Tommy popped the question.
