Accompanying the images were disturbing messages reportedly sent by McGregor, including: 'Don't be a rat cos all rats get caught.'
In her own words, Banks called out the UFC star, writing, 'How you gonna send a b–tch some crooked d— pics then threaten her not to tell? @TheNotoriousMMA n— do you know who the f— I am? This is HARAM.' She didn't stop there, questioning his political ambitions, 'Honey…… ain't u trying to be the president of Ireland? What is it giving fam? Use some f—ing sunscreen, damn.'
According to Page Six, the rapper stated, 'I have never met the leprechaun but today is his birthday and he wants everyone to make a wish and blow out the candle.' Banks also claimed the messages were unsolicited and suggested the incident wasn't a one-time occurrence, alleging, 'Me and Conor McGregor have been sending each other unsolicited nudes since 2016. LOL.'
Conor McGregor's controversies continue
McGregor has not publicly responded to the accusations.
H
is fiancée, Dee Devlin, posted a birthday tribute on Instagram the same morning, seemingly unbothered by the controversy. The couple has four children and has weathered multiple past storms, including a s–xual assault accusation and a recent civil court verdict that ordered McGregor to pay over €248,000 to Nikita Hand for a 2018 incident in Dublin. He has denied the claim and is currently appealing the decision.
This new controversy also arrives just weeks after McGregor was photographed kissing a bikini-clad mystery woman on a beach in Fort Lauderdale, fueling further cheating speculation. McGregor is also under public scrutiny for his political aspirations, having expressed interest in running for the Irish presidency and opposing the EU migration pact.

Did you know THIS actress romanced both father and son on screen - and was once injured after actor got carried away during kiss scene?
Madhuri Dixit, a Bollywood icon, faced a troubling incident early in her career during the filming of 'Dayavan.' A romantic scene with Vinod Khanna went awry, resulting in an on-set injury when Khanna reportedly got carried away during a kissing scene. Despite the distress and her request to remove the scene, it remained in the film. Not many actresses in Bollywood can say they've romanced both a father and his son on screen — but Madhuri Dixit holds that rare distinction. While her career is filled with iconic films and unforgettable performances, one troubling incident from her early days in the industry recently resurfaced, shedding light on the darker side of stardom. Madhuri stepped into the film industry at just 17, making her debut with Aabodh. While her early work caught attention, it was her powerhouse performances in hits like Tezaab (1988), Dil (1990), Beta (1992), Hum Aapke Hain Kaun (1994), and Dil Toh Pagal Hai (1997) that cemented her place as one of Bollywood's most iconic leading ladies. But behind the glitz, a disturbing moment once unfolded on set — during a scene, an actor reportedly forgot it was just a shoot and ended up biting Madhuri's lip. What's more, she later went on to play the romantic lead opposite both him and his son. Vinod Khanna made his entry into Bollywood during a time when stars like Sunil Dutt , Amitabh Bachchan, and Rishi Kapoor ruled the screen. While Rishi Kapoor was celebrated for his flair and fashion, Khanna carved a niche with his intense presence—starting out with villainous roles in the late 1960s. A devoted follower of spiritual guru Osho, Khanna went on to deliver memorable performances in films such as Mere Apne, Mera Gaon Mera Desh, Achanak, Amar Akbar Anthony, and Qurbani. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like An engineer reveals: One simple trick to get internet without a subscription Techno Mag Learn More Undo During the filming of Dayavan, a romantic scene between Vinod and a then-20-year-old Madhuri sparked controversy. Madhuri, still relatively new to the industry, starred alongside the veteran actor in the film's popular song 'Aaj Phir Tum Pe Pyar Aaya Hai.' In the scene, Khanna reportedly got carried away and continued kissing her well beyond the director's cue to stop, causing an on-set injury—Madhuri's lip was cut and began to bleed. Though Khanna later apologised to her, the incident left her in tears. Despite the distressing moment, the scene was retained in the final cut of the film. Despite her request to director Feroz Khan to remove the controversial kissing scene with Vinod in Dayavan, he declined. A legal notice followed, but the scene was retained after a payment of Rs 1 crore. Madhuri also worked with Rishi Kapoor in Sahiban, Yarana, and Prem Granth—all of which underperformed, with Prem Granth being the only notable one. In 1997, the actress played the lead opposite his son, Akshaye Khanna , in the hit film Mohabbat, making her one of the few actresses to star opposite both father and son.

7.3cr fraud: Man who gave docus to open mule a/c held
1 2 Mumbai: A Chembur resident was recently arrested by south region cyber police in a Rs 7.3-crore investment fraud case for allegedly allowing his address to be used to open a bank account for a shell company to which part of the money was diverted. The victim, a 63-year-old south Mumbai businessman, was shown profits of Rs 31 crore in a virtual wallet. Police said the fraudsters asked the suspect, Rahul Gawli (41), to visit Goa, where they opened a bank account in a fake company's name and used his and another accused's documents for it. Gawli was assured of a monthly pay in exchange. The gang operated the company's account, to which the complainant sent Rs 5 lakh. The complainant lodged a police complaint on May 17 stating that he was added to a WhatsApp group through a link in Feb. A woman, Riya Bansal, and some other gang members pretended to be representatives of a private company that manages the portfolios of investors. In a WhatsApp message, Bansal told the businessman that they would invest his money in the primary market and that he would stand to earn huge profits. The man wanted to open an account in his daughter's name. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Providers are furious: Internet access without a subscription!

A team comprising senior inspector Nankumar Gopale and inspector Suresh Bhoye is probing the case.
