Anthea Turner Blasts Venezuela Fury as ‘Useless’ After Viral Newlywed Cooking Clip

CelebrityAnthea Turner Blasts Venezuela Fury as ‘Useless’ After Viral Newlywed Cooking Clip

Venezuela Fury has found herself at the centre of a small but very pointed daytime TV debate after Anthea Turner called the 16-year-old “useless” over a TikTok about cooking. The clip itself was light, domestic, and very much not presented as a national skills audit. Naturally, television found a way.

The eldest daughter of Tyson Fury and Paris Fury had posted a 90-second video showing her husband, Noah Price, cooking steak with herby potatoes. In it, Venezuela admitted she had accidentally been trying to cook for about five minutes without the gas ring turned on.

Smiling, she touched Noah’s arm and told him: “Look I’m not used to cooking and all this, I’ll leave you to do it all.”

What Anthea Turner said on Channel 5

The TikTok was discussed on Channel 5’s Vanessa, which was being hosted by Cherry Healey in place of Vanessa Feltz. The topic was less about one steak dinner and more about who does what in the kitchen once a couple is living together.

Turner, however, did not exactly reach for the gentle phrasing drawer.

“What has annoyed me about watching Venezuela, is that nobody does their kids any favours letting them leave home useless,” she said.

She then clarified that she meant “boys and girls” should leave home knowing how to handle domestic tasks and cook.

Healey added that in many modern households, both people are working, which makes it harder to justify one person doing everything at home. “No-one wants to come home every single night and watch someone else sitting on the sofa not helping,” she said.

It was a fairly standard division-of-labour discussion, though with a teenager’s playful TikTok suddenly got pulled in as proof.

Why the TikTok landed differently with viewers

While Turner said the video annoyed her, many of Venezuela’s followers seemed to read it as affectionate newlywed content rather than a manifesto against chopping onions.

In the clip, Venezuela also joked: “Good advice for everyone by the way: Don’t cook, let your husband do it.”

Some commenters leaned into the joke. One user, Ro17xq, wrote: “May this marriage find me in every lifetime.”

Another, Elacourtney940, praised Noah’s effort, writing: “Lovely to see the man cooking.” A third commenter, LIGHT, added: “What a good husband – what a lovely couple – wishing you both a life of happiness, love and good health.”

The reaction points to the slightly awkward gap between social media tone and TV panel analysis. A joke between a young couple can become, with enough studio lighting, a sweeping judgment on parenting, gender roles, and whether the potatoes were getting enough attention.

Venezuela has cooked on screen before

The idea that Venezuela has probably never lifted a spoon is also not the whole story. In the latest season of At Home With The Furys, she is shown cooking for her family while her mother Paris is away.

Her siblings do comment that her cooking is not as good as their mum’s. That is not exactly a criminal indictment. Paris has had 19 more years of life experience than Venezuela, and family members are famously calm and measured when reviewing each other’s food.

Venezuela is the eldest of Tyson and Paris Fury’s seven children. Her younger siblings are Prince John James, Prince Tyson II, Valencia, Prince Adonis Amaziah, Athena, and Prince Rico Paris.

The family’s reality series has often shown the ordinary, crowded, noisy parts of their home life alongside Tyson’s boxing career. That context helps explain why viewers notice moments like this. People are not just watching a teenager make a joke about dinner; they are watching someone grow up in public, which rarely comes with much room for trial and error.

Her married life is now part of her public profile

Venezuela recently married Noah Price in a lavish ceremony on the Isle of Man. The wedding was attended by Molly-Mae Hague and her daughter Bambi. Hague is the partner of Tommy Fury, Tyson’s half-brother and a former Love Island star.

Since the wedding, Venezuela has been sharing parts of her married life with her 1.3 million TikTok followers. Her posts have included glimpses from the couple’s honeymoon in Marbella and their new static home, reported to be in East Riding of Yorkshire.

That audience clearly enjoys the soft-focus domestic updates, including the ones where Noah cooks and Venezuela opts out with a grin. Whether that makes her “useless” is another question, and probably one better answered by the people actually eating the steak.

Vanessa was due to return on Channel 5 at 2pm.
