Conor McGregor's fiancee Dee Devlin breaks silence after UFC champ pictured kissing mystery woman on a beach in Florida
CONOR McGregor's fiancee Dee Devlin has spoken out after the former UFC champion was pictured kissing a mystery woman. In yet another scandal for the Irishman, the pair were sighted packing on the PDA in full sight of other beachgoers. 1 Today, McGregor's long-time fiancee shared a post on her Instagram story from a fan account which read: "Happy Birthday to the person who always keeps Dee entertained and makes her smile." Putting on a united front, she posted a series of photos of them beaming together. McGregor has been engaged to Dee Devlin since 2020, and they share four children together. His partner of 16 years loyally stood by his side, even when he was accused of 'brutally raping and battering' a woman. The pair boast a glam life on social media, posting smiling snaps of each other and their kids in matching outfits. The 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. Their first born was son Conor Jr, who regularly appears on his dad's Instagram page. They have a daughter, Croia, and a second son named Rian. In 2023, they welcomed a third boy they called Mack. Last year, when McGregor left the High Court in Dublin when he was found liable of assaulting a woman, he was flanked by his loyal fiancée. 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. 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!" Devlin wrote on social media afterwards: "My man and I have created a beautiful life together. I love him I trust him and I BELIEVE HIM! "Our four beautiful children whose smiling faces and happy hearts are testimony to the man he is and who we are! "No one is entitled to comment on our relationship - we trust one another and love one another. "Nothing or nobody will change that. Our family stands strong!" She seems to be staying loyal to her partner, even after he packed on the PDA with another woman. Yesterday, The Sun reported that the former two-division UFC champion - who hasn't fought in nearly four years - cozied up with a dark-haired woman. He then laid down a towel for the woman and wrapped an arm around her shoulders in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The Irishman seemed to lap up the attention of other female beachgoers around him.

Shattered widow of Universal Store CEO who was allegedly stabbed to death by a 15-year-old boy is comforted by loved ones as she pays her final respects at funeral
A multimillionaire co-founder of a national clothing chain has been laid to rest just metres from where he was allegedly fatally stabbed by a teenager at a house party. Family and friends on Monday gathered at St Agatha's Catholic Church in Brisbane to farewell Greg Josephson, who established Australian fashion retailer Universal Store. The packed funeral service was held in the upmarket inner-city Brisbane suburb of Clayfield close to the house where Mr Josephson was found dead in late June. Police discovered his body in the home amid a party involving about 30 young people. A 15-year-old boy known to Mr Josephson was charged with murder. There were emotional scenes on Monday as loved ones remembered Mr Josephson before the service concluded with wife Tamra cutting a sombre figure. The service was presided over by Father Anthony Mellor, with Mr Josephson's relatives Michael, Andrew, Martin and John Josephson as pallbearers, an online mass booklet said. In prayers of the faithful, relative Katie Josephson said the family had deep gratitude for Mr Josephson's blessed life and his presence in their lives was a 'sacred gift'. 'He lived his life as an embodiment of love,' the mass booklet read. 'While his physical form may have now changed, may his divine spirit live on through all life.' Mr Josephson was found dead after police were called to the home after 8pm on June 26. The alleged killer was located on a nearby street with an injury, police said. The 15-year-old boy was taken into custody and later charged with one count of domestic violence-related murder and refused police bail. He was remanded in custody after his case was called in a children's court on June 27, when it was adjourned until September 2. Mr Josephson founded Universal Store with his brother Michael in 1999. The national apparel retailer was acquired by a group of private equity investors in 2018 for a reported $100 million and two years later the business went public on the ASX. The company is valued at about $570 million. 1800 RESPECT: 1800 737 732 Lifeline: 13 11 14
