WHEN Conor McGregor left the High Court in Dublin after he was found liable of assaulting a woman he was flanked by Dee Devlin.

Although she cut an upset figure, she was spotted holding the UFC star’s hand as they faced a swarm of photographers.

Devlin left court with him after a civil trial heard how McGregor, 36, was accused of “brutally raping and battering” Nikki Hand in a penthouse at the Beacon Hotel in south Dublin in 2018.

The MMA fighter said he had consensual sex with Hand, but the jury decided in her favour – with the court awarding the accuser damages of just over £200,000.

McGregor has revealed he will appeal the High Court’s decision but expressed his “regret” over “mistakes” made.

In a statement on social media, he wrote: “People want to hear from me, I needed time. I know I made mistakes.

“I should never have stepped out on the woman I love the most in the world. That’s all on me.

“I have instructed my legal team to appeal the decision.

“I can’t go back and I will move forward. I am beyond grateful to my family, friends and supporters all over the world who have stayed by my side.

“That’s it. No more. Getting back to the gym – the fight game awaits!”

McGregor and Devlin’s relationship and love has been documented in the media and on social media, but here’s a closer look at their romance.

How they met

The Dublin-native met Notorious in 2008. They grew up in nearby towns, had mutual pals and laid eyes on each other in a nightclub where Dee was working.

They’ve come a long since the Walkinstown days.

She was a key part in his success story, supporting him when he was unemployed and aspiring to fight in the UFC.

He told VIP magazine: “I asked her to come over and we just started chatting. She seemed like a nice girl, and I like good girls.”

Devlin added: “He was already training when I met him, so I really admired his dedication to that.”

In another interview with MMA fighting, McGregor also revealed how Dee was instrumental in running the show.

Over the years, McGregor has said he loves to spoil his fiancée[/caption]

He said: “I love to spoil her. She does not work anymore, I hired her to the business. She works for me now and collects the cheques.

“Dee worked very hard throughout the years and stuck by me when I had essentially absolutely nothing. I only had a dream that I was telling her.

“For me to be able to take her out of work, give her everything she’s ever wanted and to travel the world with her fills me with pride. It keeps me going. We’ve been together a long time. She’s been through it all with me.”

There’s no doubt Dee lives a life to envy.

Her wardrobe features Prada, Dior, and Luis Vuitton dresses, while on a visit to a Chanel boutique, £11,000 was spent on two designer handbags.

When it was her 35th birthday last year, a luxuriously posh dinner was the order of the day.

She was whisked to the island of Mallorca by private jet, where a romantic candlelit table was set at the exclusive Lume & Co restaurant.

They ordered Tomahawk steak costing £104 each, and celebrated in style as they were surrounded by balloons in a private room.

One big family

The McGregor family live in a £2.5million home in Kildare, a 40-minute drive from Dublin.

They take holidays in Marbella, where they have a £1.3million villa in the exclusive gated The Heights set on the La Resina country club estate.

McGregor and Dee, who have been engaged since 2020, share four children together.

Their first born was son Conor Jr, who regularly appears on his dad’s Instagram page.

McGregor’s only daughter, Croia, is five, while his second son Rian is three.

Only last year, they welcomed a third boy they called Mack.

Inside McGregor's Notorious lifestyle

With more sides to his personality than an Octagon, Conor McGregor's rise has been an enthralling watch.

Going from UFC icon to entrepreneur and Hollywood star, the Irishman has transcended the sport he helped bring to the masses.

He has four children with fiancee Dee Devlin and the family enjoy a lavish lifestyle.

McGregor has not fought in UFC since breaking his leg in a trilogy fight with Dustin Poirier in 2021.

That has not stopped him amassing a net worth of over £150m thanks to his Proper No Twelve whiskey and fashion line.

And he is due to return to the Octagon at UFC 303 in an eagerly-awaited headline clash with Michael Chandler.

McGregor also starred alongside Jake Gyllenhaal in the Amazon Prime remake of classic movie Road House, although he is dreading his mum seeing one X-rated scene.

Notorious turned up to the premiere in a £60,000 suit that was outdone by his £460k watch.

The only thing sharper than his fashion sense is his tongue and the Dubliner has several bitter spats under his belt, including with UFC legend Khabib Nurmagomedov.

That row led to one of his biggest controversies in 2018 as he travelled 3,000 miles to confront Khabib in a vicious attack on his bus.

He pleaded guilty to assault after punching a man in a pub in 2018 and had his £150k Bentley seized by police for driving offences four years later.

Joe Rogan lashed out at McGregor in a four-letter outburst and the Irishman has also fired shots at Jake Paul, KSI and Tommy Fury.

Boxing great Floyd Mayweather also has McGregor on his enemy list after the pair clashed in a cross-sport bout in 2017.
