Conor McGregor's fiancee speaks out after UFC star kissed mystery woman

Dee Devlin, the fiancee of UFC superstar Conor McGregor, has spoken out after her partner was seen kissing a mystery woman on a Florida beach.

The former two-weight UFC champion was spotted enjoying a jet ski ride before he was seen cuddling up to a brunette who was not his fiancee on a Fort Lauderdale beach. The Sun reported that the 'Notorious' appeared to be relishing the attention from female beachgoers. McGregor and Devlin have been engaged since 2020 and share four children.

Devlin, 37, spoke out for the first time since the photos were published by sharing a post from a fan account on Instagram which read: "Happy Birthday to the person who always keeps Dee entertained and makes her smile." She followed this up with a series of photos featuring herself and McGregor.

Despite the recent scandal, it seems Devlin is standing by her man of 16 years. Notably, she supported McGregor when he faced allegations of "brutally raping and battering" in a civil case, accusations which McGregor, 37, has consistently denied, reports All Out Fighting.

Former hairdresser Nikita Hand, 35, won a lawsuit against McGregor over the incident, which allegedly took place in a penthouse at the Beacon Hotel in 2018. During the three-week trial at the High Court in Dublin last November, McGregor maintained that he had consensual sex with Ms Hand.

After a six-hour and ten-minute deliberation, the jury found Conor McGregor civilly liable for assault. Nikita Ni Laimhin, also known as Ms Hand, was awarded a substantial €248,603.60 in damages after the verdict by the panel of eight women and four men.

Additionally, the Irish fighter has been directed to pay an initial sum of €100,000 towards the damages and €200,000 as part of the projected €1.3million legal fees before any appeal.

McGregor is now appealing the decision, which was initially set to introduce fresh evidence. Yet, this month the Dublin Court of Appeal was informed that McGregor would no longer be presenting new evidence that wasn't available during the first trial.

McGregor has not fought since he broke his leg in the first round of his trilogy fight with Dustin Poirier four years ago. He has not won a fight since he demolished Donald Cerrone inside 40 seconds in 2020.

A bout against Michael Chandler was on the cards last year, but McGregor had to pull out due to an injury sustained while training. Recently, the 37 year old stoked anticipation among fans by stating he plans to fight at the UFC's White House event next year.

Despite some supporters losing hope for his return, McGregor once more dropped hints about a comeback. At a press conference for Bare Knuckle FC, where he holds co-ownership, the Dublin native made an exhilarating announcement, saying: "It's looking like I'm headed to the Oval Office again. That's where I'm headed next."
