Paris Fury finally reunited with husband Tyson on Thursday night after the pair went three months without talking.
The TV personality, 35, supported her spouse at his press conference in Saudi Arabi as the Gypsy King prepares to rematch Oleksandr Usyk on Saturday night.
After suffering his first career defeat when he battled the Ukrainian over 12 rounds in May, Tyson has embarked on a period of familial seclusion in order to prepare for the rematch.
The 36-year-old boxer claimed earlier this week that he had not spoken to Paris for three months as he locked himself away for his training camp.
Yet Paris ensured she was in attendance to support her husband of 16 years ahead of his blockbuster showdown.
Speaking about his training camp, Tyson told TNT Sports presenter Dev Sahni: 'It's been a long camp. Been away from my wife and kids for three months, I've not spoken to Paris at all for three months, not one word. Yeah, I've sacrificed a lot.'

Paris was flanked by their son Prince, and Tyson's half-brother Tommy as they took their seats in the front row.
She then watched on from the crowd as Tyson and Oleksander engaged in a intense staredown to close the event, with the head-to-head lasting over ten minutes.
The warring rivals were eventually pulled apart as they prepare to step in the ring in the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh on Saturday.
Speaking during the event Tyson was uncharacteristically concise in his remarks as he promised he was solely focused on the task at hand.
'I've got nothing to say, apart from there's going to be a whole lot of hurt and pain in this fight you watch.' Tyson insisted.
'That's all I got to say. Talking's been done. You know, the first fight I talked, I joked, through all my career.
'This time I'm serious. I'm going to do some f***ing damage here on Saturday night. Watch me go to work on this f*****.'
Earlier in the day, Paris shared a selfie with her son Prince, 13, as they travelled in luxury on their private jet to the Middle East ahead of the match.

The mother-of-seven smiled in the snap and wrote: 'On our way @tysonfury' after she spoke out earlier this week about the extraordinary measures the heavyweight champion has taken ahead of his next fight.
Paris shared: 'People don't see the sacrifices made I've let him solely concentrate on this fight. It seems like he's been gone forever especially with no contact but if it's what he needs.'
Tyson's extreme measures show just how seriously he's taking his rematch with Oleksander, the man who handed him his first professional defeat and stripped him of the WBC heavyweight title.
Oleksander became the undisputed heavyweight champion in Riyadh when he handed Tyson the first professional defeat of his storied career, beating him via split decision.
Taking the upper hand in the clash, Oleksander goes into Saturday's fight with a staggering 60 per cent of the total £150m purse secured.
Tyson, who did have the negotiating power in May, will be left with the remaining 40 per cent.
After months of intense training and a complete mental reset, he insists he's more focused and driven than ever. However, he claims he will maintain the same style of fighting.
'I need to be more focused this time and not do as much showboating,' he said. 'One of the commentators said: 'Has anybody ever seen Tyson Fury clown this much against even lower level opposition?' That's how easy it was for me and you can get complacent.'
The couple have three daughters and four sons (pictured Venezula, 15, Prince Tyson II, eight, Prince John James, 12, Valencia, six, Prince Adonis Amaziah, five, and Athena, three)
However, he went on to add: 'I won't change anything. Why would I when I had control of the fight for maybe 80 per cent of it? I'm landing on him at will, head and body, lead right uppercuts, left hooks, right hooks to the body, doubles at times.
'I don't need to change anything. I don't think he can, either, because he ain't going to outbox me on the back foot. He has to come forward and make a fight of it.'
Tyson and Paris have seven children together after welcoming Prince Rico to the clan back in September last year.
The couple have three daughters and four sons, welcoming their eldest child and first daughter, Venezuela Fury, in 2009.
Prince John James followed in 2011, with their brother Prince Tyson Fury II arriving in 2016.
