Morecambe’s heavyweight champion boxer, Tyson Fury, enjoyed a family day out at Blackpool Pleasure Beach at the weekend – and he even managed to find his ‘lookalike’ .

Tyson and his wife, Paris, were pictured outside the Icon rollercoaster, with their six children; they were visiting for Pleasure Beach’s ‘White Knuckle Weekends’.

Blackpool Pleasure Beach shared the photo to their social media pages on Saturday (26 February), writing: “Good luck to Tyson Fury ahead of his fight with Dillian Whyte!

“Great to welcome @parisfury1 and the family back on park. Hope you enjoyed your White Knuckle Weekend.”

At the time of writing, the post has received over 2,500 interactions on Facebook, hundreds of comments and 73 shares.

One person commented: “Love this family... just reading Paris Fury’s book and it's really enjoyable.”

Another said: “Knew I’d walked past them today.”

“Love Tyson Fury,” said another. “Best of luck against Dillian Whyte”.

Fury even “found his twin” at the theme park as a ‘lookalike’ posted a picture of him and the boxer to social media.

Ecky Steedman said: “Asked him for a selfie.

“He says ‘only because I'm like his twin’ and started laughing.”

A spokesperson from Blackpool Pleasure Beach said: "It was great to welcome Paris and Tyson Fury and their family back to Blackpool Pleasure Beach, we hope that they had at great day out. 

"Blackpool Pleasure Beach is open for White Knuckle Weekends every weekend in March."

The picture comes just as the highly anticipated fight between Fury and Dillian Whyte is confirmed for April.

The Gypsy King will defend his WBC heavyweight title at Wembley Stadium on 23 April.

The boxer, who lives in Morecambe, recently announced a “social media blackout” as he prepares for the fight, telling his 5.4 million social media followers not to “contact [him] in any single way”.
