At Home With the Furys //
Cover story for the Guardian where I photographed Tyson Fury aka The Gypsy King, the heavyweight boxing champion of the world, and his family at their Morecambe based mansion complete with gold curtains, His and Hers thrones, a gigantic Gypsy King logo freshly laid in the back drive, renderings of Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel fresco on the ceilings and big chandeliers in each room that shake whenever the kids get too boisterous upstairs.
The article anticipates the unveiling of the show 'At Home With the Furys' a nine-part fly-on-the-wall reality series that’s due to hit Netflix later this month, where Tyson and wife Paris with their 7 children (soon to be 8) including Athena, Prince Adonis Amaziah, Valencia Amber, Prince John James, Venezuela and Prince Tyson Fury II are documented in the thrall of domestic life.

I photographed Lucinda Chambers, the longtime fashion director of British Vogue, where she held the position for 25 years, at her London based home for The Guardian.
The Generation Game //
The geographer Dr Albert Sabater argues that the young and the old in the UK are living more physically separate lives – driven in part by the growing split between older homeowners and younger renters. He worries that this will accentuate what is seen as increasing antagonism between young and old, millennials and baby boomers, with the former accusing the latter of carving up society to suit them and leaving later generations only scraps.
In a report for the Guardian, myself and journalist Stephen Moss went to West Somerset and central Manchester – the parts of England with the oldest and youngest populations respectively – to test attitudes, see how different age groups in those areas related to each other, and investigate whether the notion of a war of the generations was true.
