    Joseph Parker opens up on challenging family life after being forced to miss birth of all five of his children

    by

    JOSEPH PARKER’S entire family is fuelling his bid to become the Daddy of boxing — and a two-time heavyweight world champion.The Kiwi, 33, ditched his usual Home Alone training regime for a camp with pregnant wife Laine and his five children in the Saudi Arabian desert.Joseph Parker’s dedication to his sport meant missing the births of all of his girlsCredit: GettyParker will face Martin Bakole, who replaced Daniel DuboisCredit: GettyParker was due to face Daniel Dubois on Saturday before Britain’s IBF heavyweight champ was taken sick in Riyadh.Saudi chiefs last night desperately drafted in 6ft 6in Scottish-based Congolese fighter Martin Bakole, 33, as a replacement for a non-title clash after Dubois was KO’d by a doctor.But Parker, on a thrilling resurgence since losing his WBO crown to Anthony Joshua in 2018, declared: “I’ve put in all the hard work and I’m ready to go.”Parker’s dedication to his sport meant MISSING the births of all of his girls, while he spent Christmas Day at Tyson Fury’s house when he otherwise have been all alone with a plastic tree.Read More on BoxingSo this time, he has swapped the solitude of his last nine training camps in Morecambe for get-togethers with Laine, their four daughters and son during his four-week build-up to this fight. Parker beamed: “I got to see my family every day for four weeks after training.“That gives me strength. Other fighters have to tuck themselves away, be away from their family, but I feel better having them around.“Boxing is only here for a while but your family is here forever. I don’t want to miss out on them growing up and seeing them every day.Most read in BoxingCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITS“I had a house with my training team and had my family in another house, six minutes up the road.“I had two or three hours every evening with them after a hard day’s training.Daniel Dubois given huge boost in rematching Oleksandr Usyk for undisputed titles ahead of Joseph Parker fight“It’s important to get the balance but also the rest. You can’t rest when the kids are running around.“The kids are eight, six, five, two, ten months — and one on the way. I love training and pushing my body to different levels and then being able to relax with the family.“I love being around the chaos — it’s relaxing being around that chaos.”But Parker has no plans to top pal Fury’s current brood of seven.He explained “My wife got us a home-schooling exemption so the kids could travel with us.“My wife is teaching them — she’s a superwoman, it’s crazy. Being a parent is harder than boxing. Boxing is hard but you train, get the best food, best rest and you’re in shape.“Being a parent, you’re surrounded by kids non-stop, it’s way tougher. Tyson and Paris can have the record, I’m done! I think my wife is done, she needs her body back so she can enjoy her life.” More

Then, we were still two well-known players. We were already associated a lot on a lot of things.”These are not subjects that I necessarily like to discuss. I think it’s a self-acceptance already. “Everyone around us, our children, know there’s no problem. But I’m not going to be the first to tell someone who doesn’t know. And yet, we were really lucky, it went really well.”Nevertheless, Bompastor and Abily retain a strictly professional relationship while on duty at Chelsea.The couple maintained the same stance during their time in charge of Lyon, and it led to immense success.READ MORE SUN STORIESBompastor added: “Camille isn’t my wife at work.

      Derek Chisora reveals new rivalry with childhood pal Anthony Joshua despite pair never considering fighting each other

And hearing them sing … it will be emotional.”Kyle is the fourth Englishman now at the Rossoneri, joining on-loan Roma striker Tammy and more former Chelsea players – Fikayo Tomori and Ruben Loftus-Cheek.Sources said he was desperate to escape the UK after he confessed to fathering a second child with his ex-mistress, Lauryn Goodman, 34.The scandal has dogged the player for over a year.He was kicked out of the family home in December 2023 and Annie, heavily pregnant with Rezon at the time, vowed it would be the last straw and filed for divorce last August.In an exclusive interview with The Sun, the footie ace apologised publicly and begged for forgiveness.Walker was seen smiling broadly as he reunited with his familyCredit: BackGridWalker’s family arrived on a private jet to join him in ItalyCredit: BackGridWalker could make his debut tomorrowCredit: BackGridAnnie and her kids jetted out to see the footy starCredit: BackGridWalker also revealed he had come close to signing for the then German champions Bayern Munich in a £15million move.In a candid interview, Kyle confessed: “Now you know the reason why, because I tried to escape.“Did I want to leave City?

I came very close to moving. We were having conversations. “The numbers were there. I was going to a great club, a massive club. But in the end I couldn’t go.“There is pain and emotion at the moment but I can go to the house, pick the kids up, take them to school, I can take my little lad to football.“I can do the normal stuff that makes me feel normal.”NEW BEGINNINGS Walker’s loan move to AC Milan is expected to be made permanent in the Summer – bringing an end to his eight year career at the Etihad.He has won 17 major honours with City since his £50million move from Tottenham in 2017.His accolades include six Prem titles, two FA Cups, four League Cups and the Champions League.The £150,000-a-week full-back was tipped for a move to the Saudi league to join Cristiano Ronaldo and Co.But Kyle is said to be desperate to become the first ever black player to reach 100 caps for England – he currently has 93.READ MORE SUN STORIESTo reach the milestone, he would need to be on the plane for the World Cup next year.A source said he refused to give up on that dream and chose AC Milan in the hope that it will boost his chances.Annie on arrival in Milan at their hotelCredit: BackGridWalker enjoying some quality timeCredit: BackGridThe defender is having a change of scenery in ItalyCredit: BackGridKyle Walker is preparing to make his AC Milan debutCredit: Getty More
