Venezuela, who married amateur boxer Noah Price in May, shared on her Instagram Stories a photo of a brown fur delivery from the company Furs by Faraday.
Tagging the brand in the snap, she added the caption: “It’s that time of year.”
She later added a clip of her wearing the coat to her 1.5million TikTok followers with the hashtag “furseason”.
It’s not the first time she has promoted the company, and previously shared a photo of some white coats with a fur trim that she had received.

Venezuela added the caption at the time: “Thank you @fursbyfaraday for mine & my sisters’ coats can’t wait to wear they are lovely.”
The company claims to be “fur coat specialists” and who provide “the worlds finest Mink Coats UK next day delivery [sic].”
Their page, which has 7,388 followers, includes listings for cashmere boys’ coats finished with fox fur hoods, matching mother and daughter mink coats, and bobble hats.
After Venezuela promoted the company on Instagram, many followers were quick to rush to the comments to complain about the ethics.

A third commented: “This is just wrong! This is real fur! I thought you would know better than this.”
However, some defended the reality star in the comments, with one saying: “Where do you think your leather shoes, belts and purses come from?”
Fur farming has been banned in England and Wales since 2000 and in Scotland and Northern Ireland since 2002, but the import of fur and fur products remains legal in the UK.
Venezuela and Furs by Faraday have been contacted by The Sun for comment.
The teen influencer recently stunned the internet with a new video, which seems to suggest she doesn’t have her own bank account.
This is despite her having a starring role in series 3 of Netflix show At Home With The Furys – and her dad, boxer Tyson Fury, has a fortune of £197 million.
She took to TikTok to vent, saying: “Right, this is my daily upsetment of the day.
“Why does everything now have to be, if you want to make an account, if you want to make an appointment, if you want to go in somewhere and order something, it’s computer says no do it online.
“I’ve tried, I’ve walked into four different banks trying to make an account. Four different banks has told me go do it online.”

Following their lavish wedding, Venezuela, 16, and Noah, 19, have been living in their own static home in the East Riding of Yorkshire, far from Paris and Tyson’s mansion in the Isle Of Man.
Boxer Tyson confirmed that his family reality series was returning for a third series earlier this year, with Venezuela and Noah’s wedding set to feature in the instalment.
And with Venezuela no stranger to the cameras, the show may not be the only time fans will see her on the small screen next year.
