'I wanted to leave Tyson but I knew he wouldn't have made it'

Paris Fury is the wife of the world heavy weight boxing champion Tyson Fury.

In 2016 Tyson stepped away from boxing for three years after struggling with depression and addiction.

Paris explained to 5 Live's Naga Munchetty how the decline in his mental health affected their relationship.

"There were times when Tyson would disappear for two or three days binge drinking," she said.
